Ruedamann 10FT Telescopic Wheelchair Ramp with Handle, 8.9" Wide, 2PCS

I got the 10' ramp to get into a van about 27" high. The ramp was sufficiently strong for my mom in her wheelchair (about 200lbs total). Likes: good price, carrying handles, reasonable weight, reasonably easy to collapse and expand (see below) Dislikes: 1) Going up the ramp, it gets narrower to the point that it is hard to get the front and back wheels in ramp channel. 2) The ramps are perforated aluminum with no grip. They were fine in dry conditions, but I would not want to use them in the rain. 3) There are three sections and two clips on each side of each ramp. The upper clip holds the upper section to the middle section, but there is nothing to keep the lower segment from collapsing into the middle section except friction. While the ramps didn't go anywhere when using them, it was awkward to move a fully extended ramp as the bottom section would slide in and out.

I am very disappointed with this ramp. The biggest issue is how difficult it is to open and close. It requires an excessive amount of force and is not practical for everyday use. In fact, it often takes two or more people to operate it safely. This is a major design flaw that should have been addressed before the product was sold. I would not recommend this ramp to anyone looking for a convenient or user-friendly solution.

Perfect length for wheelchair to get in our RV . The way the slide in to each other is great for storage in the compartments.

Took only 5 minutes to install. Screwed right into my porch (screws not included). Two different sized holes. You can heat & bend the top lip if needed to angle it more. It helps to have the wheelchair present when setting up the ramps, so you get the spacing accurate. Measure at the top of the ramp where the tracks are narrowest! I have the 10’ ramp, which is three sections nested into each other, so it’s a little narrow at the top and you have to line up the wheelchair wheels carefully, but once you’re in, it’s smooth sailing! I love that as the person pushing the wheelchair, I can use the stairs in between the ramps. The “locking clips” are rather worthless when the ramp is extended. The bottom one is mounted at the bottom of the lower section, so there’s nothing for it to clamp onto when extended. The locking clamps are really only practical for keeping it together when it’s being stored or transported. That being said, I haven’t experienced any sliding out of place of the lower section. You could always drop a screw & nut through the holes in the tread of the two sections if you have an issue. This is a quality, sturdy ramp. Highly recommended!

First tried 6 ft ramps from Harbor Freight. Getting it in was OK, but taking it out was dangerous - slope was steep enough to make it hard for an 80 yr old guy to stay out of the way. Considered using a block and tackle system. Might have worked except no attachment point available. By this time I was thinking about an 8 ft ramp for around $180, but found this 10 ft ramp for $309 here. Completely solved the problem. Quality ramp, easy to extend and retract, light enough to handle. I’m on enough forums to know this is a big issue for trike owners. $300 is absolutely worth it. If I had started with this I would have saved a lot of grief and money.
