I love it more than my dog!  But she is learning. It is perfect for her to get to her favorite spot on the couch! She had back surgery in March and is unable to jump up. Right now I have to put a little treat at the top to coax her up but she is very smart and will learn. She is 36#s and it is heavy enough to hold even a heavier dog. Another nice feature is that it folds to store nicely when not in use. Very, very satisfied with my purchase and will be ordering another for our bed!
