Frisco Collapsible Cat & Dog Stairs & Storage, Gray

These stairs were a lot better than the reviews led me to believe. I am so impressed! Firstly, they work amazing for my two senior cats getting on the bed so I cannot vouch for dogs. However, I think they would work for small dogs and you may need something larger for medium/large dogs of course (obviously not for a 90lb dog). They are sturdier than I thought they would be; I expected flimsy cardboard that didn't stay attached but mine is very solid cardboard and both top and bottom stair fit into the storage part and haven't moved since I put them together. The storage is a bonus too!

The storage is a bonus too! My cats have not had trouble getting on them, sliding around on them or having any difficulty and one of my cats has very bad arthritis. The top fabric is a very soft almost fleece like material, which my cats actually enjoy because they'll just lay on the top step often. I'm definitely impressed by these stairs for the price, maybe because some of the reviews were really negative but I don't know what those people expected. $40 pet stairs is a great deal, especially with included storage and being sturdy! Would definitely recommend for cats! … more

I got two of these collapsible stairs. I got them because my small dog, 9 pounds, has lost some mobility in her hind legs. Not sure why, she's only 11 years old. The fabric on the stairs seems to me to be more for a cat than a dog. Cats have sharper claws than dogs. She can't get a grip on the fabric and she fell each time I coaxed her into climbing them. The bottom step is considerably shorter than the top step and she could not figure out how to traverse that bottom step. She fell each time, even though I guided her up and down. Down seems better than up for her but it just isn't working out. Like I said, I think it's more for cats than dogs.

I read a lot of negative reviews on this before I bought it anyway: "cardboard"; "lid collapses into the cube", etc., but decided to purchase it anyway figuring I could always either "hack" it or return it. Turns out all the negatives were either user-related or they've been remedied by the mfr because this is a solid piece of furniture! My arthritic chihuahua took to it immediately - even likes to occasionally sleep on the top step. It's much easier for him to navigate than the shallow three-step stair I originally purchased. Plus I LOVE the storage factor; use it for his coats and sweaters. I would definitely purchase this again.

If you measure these stairs they are kinda large but I think they work well and seem to be less bulky and smaller than other stairs I’ve seen. The soft fabric on top is really nice and they are a great way to hide stuff from your pet and anyone really. (A bugler won’t really think to look inside your pet stairs). But they are perfect for a couch or a bed that isn’t too high.

I was nervous it would be too flimsy, but this is heavier than I thought it would be. Would it work for a 50lb dog? Maybe not but my Peke only weighs 10lbs. She's young and has cats for brothers and sisters. This helps her feel like she can see out the window, and get up on the couch. The wider steps are perfect for a longer bodied dog that won't skip a step up and down. She can lay on the top while it sits in front of a window. Pleasantly surprised and happy with the product.

I bought these because of the storage they offer, but at this point I wish I would have bought some that didn’t have any storage. I think these would be fine for just cats however I have 2 dachshunds and the top portion of the steps that lifts up keeps coming apart every 10-20 times they use them. I have tried gluing them back together, even nailing them together and nothing works. They eventually find their way apart again.

We needed a middle step for our 55lbs dog with shorter legs as our bed is 32” high. We were worried that she would eventually jump off at the wrong angle and hurt herself. The step is perfect! She usually gets a trotting/running start to get up on the bed and uses the large step as a booster step now. It is sturdy and holds her weight just fine. I’m not sure if it could hold her if she decided to sit on it regularly, but it does work as intended for our situation.

We've used the standard molded plastic stairs for many years. These stairs are so much more attractive. Our cat absolutely loves them, as the steps are much deeper and softer than the old steps. The extra storage is a wonderful bonus as well. Other reviews claim they aren't well made, but that has not been my experience at all. I think the steps are perfect for any pet that weighs less than 60 pounds.

I love these so much I am going to order another set once I’m done writing this review. It took a little bit of coaxing for my 12 lb dog to use after but now she loves them. I am getting a separate set for the couch as she’s getting older and don’t need to be jumping up and down. They are VERY solid and don’t move at all (which was a problem we had with plastic stairs in the past which has made her leery of stairs). I definitely recommend.

I love these stairs for my old cat. The steps are big so it makes it easy for him to climb up and sit on them if he wants. He even lays on the top step sometimes. He uses them every day to get on the sofa. Super easy to put together. The storage is great. I was really happy with this purchase.
