The Pet Gear Pet Stairs have been with us for a little over a week - and our two dogs (one tiny and one medium) are routinely using them to get on and off of their favorite place in our house:  our bed!  The steps are especially welcome at night, since they save us from having to get up and let the dogs down (and get 'em back up) for a drink of water or a nocturnal potty call.  One really nice feature, which doesn't come through clearly in the photos, is that the carpeted portions of the step are angled slightly (lower at the leading edge and higher at the back), so it's easier for the pooches to maintain a smooth flow and keep their balance - without scraping their bellies on the steps' edges.  A very thoughtfully designed product!  It should last forever, too.
