This couch ramp is sturdy and very well made, it can hold a little dog or a much larger dog (the weight limit is 80 lbs). No assembly is required, just slide it out of the box, and your ready to go. It can be adjusted to a variety of heights for different couches or chairs. Pretty look of the ramp and the quality hardwood in the different colors to match your furniture. It won't be an eyesore in your living room or any room of your house. If you do want to stash it out of the way you can easily fold in flat and slide it under the couch for storage. The grippy surface makes it easier for your pup to walk up and down without feeling like they are slipping. Dogs love the little ledge on the top to sit there on their way up and down (a good way for treats your pups to get accustomed to the ramp). Save your dog's back and give this couch ramp a try, and check out the bed ramp too!! Just a note, be patient with your pups, if they have been jumping up and down for a long time it may take a little while to retrain them to use the ramp, it's worth the effort!
