EZ-Access - Portable Wheelchair Ramp - Handicap Ramp for Home Entry, Portable Ramps for Wheelchairs with Slip-Resistant Surface and Self-Adjusting Bottom Transition Plates - 4 Ft Suitcase Singlefold

The ramps are sturdy and well made. They hold up well in all types of weather with no signs of rust.

This ramp works well. I purchased it for the front of the house in order to be able to get my mom's wheelchair in. I use it on a 4 step porch and it's really too steep - I have to back her down so she doesn't slide out of the wheelchair. If you had 3 steps or less it would probably be okay but I would have gotten the 10 foot if I had known (I should have known I read enough reviews prior to purchase). This ramp folds in half -= I actually thought I was purchasing the one that comes apart and each section folds in half to make a 3 ft folded ramp. Either way, the quality is excellent and sturdy. It's not too heavy, just bulky being so long. It's manageable with one person but you are better off if you have two to set it up just due to the length. Not returnable so be careful you order the right one.

It works well for our space . We have a one step down in living room . And we could get longer we had to get 6 ft. I just hold onto wheel chair when pushing my husband .when it comes to electric wheel chair he’ll be able to do.I like the slip resistant material that’s used on ramp.

This ramp is very solid. I had worried that it would be flimsy, sag, or move around, but there was none of that - the ramp definitely stayed where I put it, and was very stable when I walked on it. The non-slip surface is great. The ramp itself is easy to fold up and move, and I appreciate the handles. The ramp itself is wide enough to fit a walker. The only downside is that the metal ends (both ends) are pretty rough and will scratch whatever they are against. In my case the scratched up some brickwork installed by my grandfather long ago. I wish the ends had some sort of hard rubber covering to protect what they are put against. Ultimately my Mom decided not to use this - she cannot feel her feet and I think was not comfortable with them at an angle, and preferred to continue to struggle with the stairs for now. (I'm keeping it in my garage, though, in case she change her mind later.) Quick note - I struggled a bit trying to decide what length to buy. I eventually found a site which had the following recommendations: For ADA requirements, the ramp should be 1 foot for every 1 inch of elevation. So a 12 inch rise should have a 12 foot ramp. For personal use, it's half that - so to cover 12 inches of elevation you should get a 6 foot ramp.

I purchased the 4 foot version and found that although it meets the spec for assisting a person in a manual wheelchair for my application, it takes a lot of effort to push an overweight patient up at that angle. That is not a problem with the ramp, which is built very well, it was my mistake. I should have gone with a 6 or 7 foot ramp instead. It makes a big difference. 1" per height to 12 inch per ramp length is ADA spec for unassisted use. The closer to 1:12 rather 2:12 (manual wheelchair with assistance spec) is what you should go for if possible. I ended up returning the ramp and ordering a 7' tri-fold version. These are USA made, very good construction, and look like they would last forever. They are not, however, light weight. I would say the term "light weight" is relative. For an healthcare assistant who is in good shape, it would not be a problem. It may be a little heavy for someone who is older to manage. It can be separated into 2 halves though, which makes it more manageable. The quality of the welds and metal require a certain level of weight, otherwise you get something that is not as safe or that a patient might find alarming. This is a solid ramp. I ordered a 7 foot tri-fold to replace it, which I assume I will need to separate to make manageable weight-wise. Again, there are trade-offs between weight and stability using quality aluminum construction.

Love our new portable ramp- easy to use and not too heavy to carry- my husband’s wheelchair goes up and down it with ease- item exactly as described and arrived quickly- very pleased with the quality- I’m sure we’ll be using it for years to come- photo not the best but I wanted to include one- this is being used on a 9 inch concrete step

Easy to transport. Solidly built

Perfect for us . Nonslip well made and functional .
