Does this fold up or do you have to install it every time you want to use it?

It does fold up - I leave mine on the truck most of the time. It does come off your hitch rather easily however keep in mind that it is an off-balanced piece of equipment once it leaves the hitch. I have no problems putting it on and off the hitch alone. While it is folded up you will not have use of the gate (if you are putting it on a pick-up) or the back area of your vehicle unless you lower the lift first. All in all I find the product to be a very good buy.

The hitch lift platform does fold to a vertical position. However, if you want to tow a trailer or boat, the entire hitch lift must be removed to accommodate the hitch receiver.

It folds up against the closed tailgate. It also has tag relocation mount so that the lift is not blocking the bumper mounted tag. I never remove my lift. Drive with it on all of the time.

It folds down and the wooden seat covers the mounting bracket on the wall. Please note that it should be professionally installed with extra wall support added (will not mount to standard stud separation)

it folds up onto the side of the bike. the bottom comes up and the sides fold in, so it is flat , but is leans against the bike. It is not obtrusive when folded and does not bother me. Advise..when installing, put it as far back on the rear bike rack as you can so it does not interfere (when open) with your foot when pedaling.I recommend.Can carry a lot. Be careful though, if you have only one on (which is what I have), it causes an unbalance in weight and if you are not careful the bike can tip. But as long as you are aware, it will not be a problem. For example, I mounted it on the right side, so when I walk my bike I stand on the left side to counter the weight. not a big deal if you know. it folds up onto the side of the bike. the bottom comes up and the sides fold in, so it is flat , but is leans against the bike.

I do fold it after each use and lean it against the wall. It is a bit heavy, but I manage (I am a 50 yo 5'3" arthritic woman). I have bumped my knees with it a couple of times though. Unfolding is very easy. It isn't too bad if you are only carrying it a short distance.

No, it doesn't fold up! However, it doesn't take up an inordinate amount of room and can be moved quite easily!

I usually need to push the sides in slightly for it to fold... So not really... But the fold IS very smooth and easy :)

No, it does not fold up. You must keep it as is. I have the one with raised legs, but you might be able to put the one that lays on the floor under a bed. You would have to measure everything. But I like the one with raised legs because it lets me do standing exercises.

It folds down very small. I use small bungee cords to keep it compact after rolling it up.

It folds in half. It has a tiny bit of give when installed. My dog is smaller than I thought she would be so the crate is too big but I removed the divider.

It is very easy to fold up. It takes a little bit to figure it out but doesn't take longer then a minute tops

It doesn't fold up. You can remove the stand (by sliding it off the handle), which will leave basically a hand mirror, which packs flat. The stand at that point is also fairly flat, so you can pack it on top.

No, this does not fold down. Once it is put together, it is designed to stay assembled.

Yes. It does fold up easily. There are two knobs you unscrew by hand that you'll have to unscrew and store someplace. Other than that wonky design, it's easy to deal with.

you do not have to take it apart to fold it. Each panel has specific slots so be careful when assembling

no it doesn't fold, it does screw on and off pretty easily which is what I do when I have to cover my boat.

It folds up when not in use. It depends on if you feel your bicycle would be obtrusive. I find it pretty minimalist.

No it does not fold up. However, the legs are easily removed if you need to store it in a smaller space.
