Why it matters
At 71 in long and about 20 in wide, this ramp is longer and wider than the typical 63 x 17 in, for a gentler slope and more room. It is iron and aluminum with double reinforcement, supports 250 lb, and has a PVC looped-fiber surface for grip, even when wet. It weighs about 20 lb.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
