Rottie review

I have 4 large dogs, the biggest being a 146# Rottweiler. He has bad hips and elbows. When he uses the step, he can enter and exit without the added pressure on those joints, making him more comfortable overall. With my Escape, together the back end and bumper are higher up, thus getting in and out of the back is easier for myself as well. This is a good investment for my pets, and I would encourage my clients to purchase as well. Valerie, DVM

Easy to train my 2 huskies to use (literally took a couple of minutes). Putting it together was easy. We purchased a locking mechanism from the recommended carrier and you need a tool & key to remove the unit. I wouldn't recommend driving through a car wash with the step attached (so it would nice if it could be easily removed). Very substantial product that will really help me transport my dogs. Recommend this product.

For our Subaru Outback this is a little big. Also, the adapter to the larger hitch size needs to be adjustable with an additional screw hole to move it further into the hitch. The column is really tall and it seems like it could be shorter to fit more vehicles. Might be a bit heavy for some users as well. Probably works much better on an SUV.

Twistep vs. Ramps

This product is perfect for pets. I considered a ramp but did not want to take up cargo space & have to drag it in & out of the suv every time I load my furry angels. I was concerned though that neither of my 4 dogs would step up and then into the suv. One of them has spine problems and recently was a university & I did not want to hurt her back getting in & out. Each dog used it the first time without hesitation both entering and exiting. Two of my dogs are too heavy for me to lift so it has not only helped my dogs but me also. I recommend the lock for it also. It is a perfect fit and no chance of theft. The Twistep is easy to use and it was easy to mount to the hitch. I highly recommend. It makes a nice little table to water my pets. It also is easy for me to get in & out of the cargo area using it as a step.

My Goldendoodle, Maverick is 98 lbs. and will not jump into the car, bed or sofa! It was so hard for me (5'3") to pick up Mave and put him in the back of my SUV. Everyone would look at me and Mave and laugh...but, I wasn't laughing! I went on-line and saw the Twistep Dog Hitch Step...I was hooked! It is so easy to install and it is so easy to use and Mave loves it too!!! Thank You So Much!!!!

I rarely write product reviews. However, this one deserves it, and I plan to recommend it to friends and family. It's easy to install, solid, works perfectly - this is a great product. So much more convenient than hauling around a ramp.
