PortablePET Twistep SUV Pet Step

The Twistep was very easy (& quick!) to install on our Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk; we didn't even need an extension bracket. Auto Accessories Garage was great to deal with: their pricing was far better than anyone else and their shipping was faster.

I LOVE this step for my dogs! It is really an awesome product. So awesome, I bought two and keep one as a spare or if I get another vehicle. It's wide enough for the dogs to feel comfortable. It's low enough for my old guys to be able to navigate it. Sturdy enough for my big dogs. Fits the car perfect with no low hang. It is so much better than I even guessed it could be. I use it all the time. I have a Honda Pilot and lifting in heavy dogs is really hard, so this makes it possible for my old dogs to not have to jump and for me not to have to lift in my puppies. I love this product! Worth every penny.

PortablePET Twistep SUV Pet Step

I've used the Twistep on a number of vehicles. I have two of the new style and it's much improved over the older version. My rescued Golden Retriever is 10+ years old and the Twistep makes it much easier for him to get into my Jeep Wrangler or Chevy Tahoe. If you've got a hitch receiver on your vehicle installation takes a few minutes and the adjustable height means it will fit almost all vehicles. I had to drop down one increment to clear the Jeep gas tank. My dog learned to use this quickly, with a couple of treats to reward he mastered using it easily.

PortablePET Pet Partition
2013-10-14
The portable pet add-on arrived with the portable pet partition in a long narrow box several days after the arrival of a cargo liner ordered on the same day. Installation was fairly easy if you use the front of the box illustration in addition to the instructions. Some detail in the box illustration was not discernible in the instructions. I normally follow instructions implicitly but this time some common sense paid off. It was not that big of a deal and installation was pretty easy. I did notice one of the rungs was a bit flimsy (loose) when extended to the side of the vehicle interior, but it will probably be sturdy enough to restrict movement of my dogs without any problem. Overall, this was a best value for my occasional dog transport locally with rare movement cross country.

This product is absolutely perfect for getting our dog in and out of the SUV. It is large enough to really work for this purpose and the manufacturer sent us a free extension to allow it to rotate under the spare tire.
