Review: Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs

Senior pets, small breeds, and dogs recovering from an injury need the help of pet stairs to reach vehicles, beds, and other furniture. Most pet owners don't think about the need for pet stairs until their dog requires them. But, did you know that products like Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs are actually beneficial for dogs of every breed and age?
When shopping for dog stairs, it's important to choose a product that is the appropriate size for your pet. The stairs shouldn't be too steep, and the depth of the stairs needs to be appropriate for your dog's leg length.

Safety features are also important, and I've tested Pet Gear Easy Step II for that as well in my review. You want to ensure that your dog won't fall off or slip down the stairs. Of course, checking the weight limit is also important, because you don't want the steps to collapse under the weight of your pooch.

Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs Review

Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs ReviewAs you can see in the photo above, the steps of the Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs are wider and deeper than most other products on the market. This makes them ideal for senior pets or dogs that are recovering from an injury and may need a wider platform.

These stairs do not come assembled, but they do snap together with no tools required. It does take some effort to snap the pieces in place, so if you don't have good upper body strength you may need someone to help you assemble these stairs.

Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs ReviewYou will notice the removable carpet treads in my video guide above. They provide traction for your pup and are machine washable. These carpet treads Velcro on, so I'm not sure if the Velcro's effectiveness will hold up through lots of washing. But, you could always replace the Velcro strips on the back if they wear out.

These stairs only weigh 7 pounds, so they're easy to take along with you if you're traveling or you need to move them from room to room. The dimensions of the Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs are 22.5″L X 16″H X 16″W. The dimensions of each stair are 13.5″ X 11″.

These dog stairs can hold a pooch weighing up to 150 pounds.

There are rubber grippers on the bottom of these stairs to prevent them from sliding around when your dog is climbing on them. This is a great safety feature, but I also wish there were sides on the steps that prevented your dog from stepping off.

The unique design of the Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs has a specific incline that reduces the number of stairs needed, so they are suitable for small or large breeds. However, they are only 16 inches tall, so they won't be suitable for getting into higher vehicles or onto high beds or furniture.

Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs ReviewThese pet stairs are available in four colors:

  • chocolate
  • cocoa
  • sage
  • tan

You can purchase the Pet Gear Easy Step II Pet Stairs for $30.99-$35.84 on Amazon, depending on the color that you choose. These are actually cheaper than most similar products of the same quality. I would certainly recommend these dog stairs as a good value for the money.
