Customers say
Customers find these ATV ramps well-constructed with excellent welding and appreciate their lightweight design. They are easy to use, with one customer noting they’re simple to install against any truck, and work well for various tasks, with one mentioning successful use with an Ariens snow blower. The ramps are foldable and store compactly in small spaces, and customers consider them good value for money. Regarding bendability, while some customers say the arch is good, others report that the ramps bend a lot.

These are definitely quality built ramps.
These ramps work incredibly well loading my mower and my e- bike in the back of my truck. The welding is excellent and the ramps aren’t that heavy. They definitely will save my back not having to lift a mower or my 68 pound e-bike into my truck. There are many ramps on Amazon to choose from but I think these aluminum ramps are the ones to get. They are not the cheapest ramps on Amazon however they are worth every dollar.

Exactly What I Hoped For!
I needed a set of ramps to load / unload my Cub Cadet CC30 H rear engine riding mower (30” deck) onto the bed of a pickup / van to take to the shop. I had been shopping a number of different ramps on a few websites that specialize in the sale of these. Found a couple of affordable arched, folding, ramps, which really interested me but there was precious little customer feedback about these models. I decided to check Amazon and I couldn’t believe the exact set of ramps was on sale (new!) for $67(!) less than they’re currently listed for and immediately pulled the trigger on this set.The ramps are excellent for what I need them for. 7’ 6” long, slightly arched and foldable. After reading several reviews about faulty workmanship I checked both ramps thoroughly and found no issues.My rear engine riding mower weighs approximately 340 lbs., I’m 5’11”, 225 lbs. and the ramps took the weight handily. There was very little flex with nearly 600 lbs. driving up the ramps.There was, however, one small issue – I ordered these around 7 a.m. on a Saturday morning and Amazon Prime shipping stated free, next day, delivery. The ramps didn’t arrive until 5 days later. Fortunately, I didn’t require the ramps until this weekend and, given the stellar price, it was something I could easily live with.

Strong Ramps But Be Careful
I bought these ramps primarily to transport my Snapper riding lawnmower when needed. On my initial “tryout”, there was no problem in driving the mower up into the bed of my truck (97 Ford Ranger). However, in backing down, the mower stuck part way. Fortunately, I saw the problem before a disaster took place; the left ramp had slipped to the right almost a foot, so that the front left mower wheel (which was still on the tailgate) would have had no place to go had I backed down any farther. Why did this happen? It appears that due to the construction of these ramps, they are designed for a significant rise (at least 30″) from the ground. That’s because of the fairly sharp downward angle of the “fingers” at the top of the ramps which, when used, rest on top of the hinged down tailgate. My rise was only about 20″, so although the tips of the fingers rested on the tailgate, the flat bar (which is only 1″ high) welded at the top of the ramp was not in contact with the edge of the tail gate so could not be snugged. (I used the provided tie straps but they were totally ineffective due to my rise). For me to safely use these ramps I attached a piece of wood 2.5″ tall to the flat bar at the top of each ramp. I also attached a rubber liner on the forward surfaces of the wood (which when used is in contact with the top edge of the tailgate) to help prevent slippage. Additionally, I connected the ramps together at the top with a portable wooden brace to keep them parallel when being used. My final “improvement” was to “cross” the tie straps in lieu of running them straight to the underside of the truck. All of these improvements proved successful because on my second “tryout”, I drove the lawnmower up and down the ramps twice with no problems and there was no slippage of the ramps. These are good, strong, lightweight ramps but make certain they are tightly snugged before using them because they will slip if not secured properly.

Very nice ramp. You can’t beat the price
Prior to buying this ramp, I was looking at several other different ramps. There are two things that I look for in a ramp, one being length of the ramps and two being prices. This ramp is long enough for me to load my lawn mower up the truck. A steep ramp is hard to load heavy and immobile things, and a lawn mower is not exactly a powerful machine to run up a steep ramp without the extra push on my part. Second to that is price. Some of the ramps that I’ve looked at are either too short or too pricey, although they are all pretty decent.The second thing about this ramp is that it’s LIGHT. Yes…light. It looks like it’s made from aluminum or something similar. The welding on the joints looks pretty tough. The ramp folds in half. When unfolded, it offers a decent slope from the ground to my Tundra truck. Overall, I’m very happy with this. It looks like it can handle a load of 1K lbs or less easily. Anything heavier than that warrants a closer scrutiny on the part of the user.

Load Up Your Loaded Bug-Out Eli Cart, ATV or Other and GO!
.If you have a Bug-Out Cart (“Eli Cart”), ATV, or Motorcycle that you want to load (or unload) FAST in your Truck, This 7′ 5″ aluminum ramp is the one to have ready. It is lightweight enough for an adolescent to pick up, foldable, strong and most important has a SOLID SURFACE. While the ideal Eli Cart wheels have a diameter wide enough to go over rough terrain, the typical Eli Cart wheels are NARROW. Most foldable ramps are NOT solid and that creates a problem to load Eli Carts. However there is no problem with this product.When you use this cart to load up, remember to place it in your vehicle so that you can use it to UNLOAD you Eli Cart, etc., too.Stay Safe, and Happy Bugging-Out!…GhillieMan (aka Chappy)

Bought these for my 2017 Can Am Outlander Max XT 570. I wanted ramps strong enough for the quad and long enough that it made loading easier. I also wanted ramps that would work for the snow blower and lawn mowers and kids quads, dirt bikes. I also have little kids who instantly start running up and down the ramps as soon as I set them up so I didn’t want the ramps with the cross bars since my kids feet would fall through them. That style would also not be great for small tire items I want to load. I wasn’t sure how the traction would be on these for the ATV but so far its great.The straps work pretty good to secure the ramps to the tailgate. The only thing that isn’t great about these ramps is the bottom is a bit slippery. I have only used them in the winter so far and with a bit of snow on the driveway the bottom can slide back and forth easily. Also in the yard on hard packed snow this can happen. Its a bit better in the yard once you have some weight on them they sink into the snow and stay put. I’m sure they will be fine in the summer. Overall happy and would recommend.

This set of ramps were turned back at the Canadian border because they were damaged.I was disappointed at that as my nephew was expecting to use them when he came to visit me this summer.
