The product is a little difficult to handle for someone like me who is short, but if you love your kids (dogs) you adjust! I have a SUV and the 87" ramp makes it easy for our dogs to get in and out since the incline is less steep especially for our one 'little man' who is almost blind. We still need to be careful with him, but he is adjusting very well to this new challenge. The one bad thing is that due to it's size it does not fit easily into my Ford Escape. The ramp is built well and handles the weight of our larger dog who weighs about 80 pounds.
