Pet Stairs II: The Measurements
I
just
blogged about some pet stairs. I made some comments about tread
height and depth, but wanted to fill in some hard numbers for all
the folks at home.
I whipped out my measuring tape, and came up with the following
measurements:
- PetStairz
-
- Total Height: 26 inches
- Total Depth: 34 inches
- Tread Height: 3.5 inches
- Tread Depth: 6 inches
- Tread Width: 16.5 inches
- Shipping Weight: 10 pounds
- HelpYourPets
-
- Total Height: 25 inches
- Total Depth: 32 inches
- Tread Height: 6 inches
- Tread Depth: 9 inches
- Tread Width: 16 inches
- Shipping Weight: 45 pounds
So, as you can see, the PetStairz offer a slightly higher rise with
a gentler slope, but each step is definitely more shallow--which
only makes sense, if you stop and think about it.
Hopefully, a few real-world numbers will help others who may be
trying to decide between the two products. Or, you could just do
what I typically do: buy both, and leave the decision to your dog.
