ORFORD Portable Wheelchair Ramp 3FT, 35.7''L×28.7''W Handicap Ramps, Non-Skid Aluminum Wheel Chair Ramp, Threshold Ramps for Doorways, Wheelchair Ramps for Home Steps, Stairs, Entry, Doorways

I have had this for probably 6 to 7 months now and I wanted to make a review after using it for a long while, and I can say that this ramp is phenomenal and easy to use. All you have to do is open it a five-year-old could do it. It’s a perfect length that goes from my porch step down to the grass. It lets me hold all the weight of my electric wheelchair down the ramp with ease and then you could just fold it right back up and put it away with easy storage. There’s not even a centimeter of an inch of slip resistance issues. I don’t feel any sleeping whatsoever. I could literally roll slow slowly down the ramp with my electric wheelchair and still not slipped down it. This is definitely a great buy.

Great Quality! Now my handicap mom can get in and out of the house with ease! Easy to install!

My husband and I have back and hip issues. I bought a cart to move groceries, cases of water, etc. from car to house. Then I realized if I had a ramp, I could wheel groceries all the way into the kitchen. This was perfect. Because of our entry set up, I had to add a 2x4 to extend the threshold out a bit. Now the screen door opens out without hitting the ramp. I also put a 2x4 underneath spanning the middle. That added a lot of stability. Don’t even have to screw anything down. The weight keeps everything in place. Since we go south in winter, we’ll fold this up and take it out of the elements before we leave. Perfect for our purposes, but too heavy for us if we wanted to continually tote it around ourselves.

We made the mistake of buying shorter very solid ramps but they didn’t work out. We needed something longer/safer. This was perfect! It does fold in half and is aluminum so it’s super light and easy to move. The downside is only one of five is in a wheelchair so the rest of us had to walk up/down it to get into the house. He said it felt very sturdy/stable to roll up/down. However when we walked on it we didn’t feel it was very sturdy/stable. I realize it’s for him/his chair and access into the house so it was good/safe for that. The rest of us just dealt with it.

This is 2nd ramp for the back porch. I’ve gotten the 4ft for one side and now 5ft for other side. Very much like this ramp and the 4ft has been outside for a couple of years now and only just starting to get some rust on it. Very very easy to set up and super durable for dog and foot traffic. We don’t use the optional feature of securing to the porch, but it’s still super steady and safe. The one drawback is the center metal strip can become slippery when wet. We actually put down a heavy rubber staircase tread in middle to give a little traction in center.

I ordered one for our mother so she could still enjoy our summer retreat. It made entering with a walker or wheelchair much easier for her and with the gripping surface it gave better traction and anti slipping surface and the raised edges act as a guide to keep you from running off, It folds up nice and easy and has pins so can lock it in to a pre drilled surface to hold it firm. As an extra bonus, it can used to roll lite weight in and out of your home. As for any downside, if it was just a bit wider for a standard wheelchair width it would be nice. The guide rails on the side could be just a bit higher to limit the possibility of jumping over the side if the chair shifts. I may order a longer one for another area of the house because this has worked well.

Could be stronger - with the patient, wheelchair, and caregiver aboard, it tends to porpoise with each step. The non-slip appliqués are a bit too easy to scrape off, and the rings attaching the pins to the ramps are too weak and have either unwound, losing the pin, or look nothing like rings at the moment. Other than that: they’re great.

I am in video production and fairly regularly need to load equipment from my house out to my car. Unfortunately, my car can't be parked directly outside my door so I usually use a rolling cart to get everything to my car. My front door has 2 steps down to the sidewalk so this meant I had to carry the cart outside, and then carry each item out to pack it onto the cart, and then wheel the cart to my car. Not fun to do at 5 or 6 in the morning! With this ramp, I can load the cart in my house the night before, and just roll it right out the door to the car. Easy! The ramp feels super sturdy and I can stand on it with no issues. It's lightweight enough to pick up and store in the house. It folds up and stays securely folded thanks to the security pins. In terms of the time and effort it's saved me, it's already paid for itself. IMPORTANT NOTE: I am using the 5 foot ramp to go up and down 2 steps., as you can see in my photo. For this many steps, I would highly recommend using a longer ramp if you're a wheelchair user or pushing someone in a wheelchair. I can easily roll my cart down the ramp, but it's pretty difficult to roll it up due to the steep angle. I could imagine it would be nearly impossible to do in a wheelchair. This is expected because this listing says the maximum height for a wheelchair is 5 inches, and a cart is 14". The height of my steps is about 18", which explains why it's a little difficult to push the cart up. (I would buy a longer ramp, but then my cart would not have room to turn at the bottom of the ramp before rolling off the sidewalk and into the street.)
