Hi , Guy's , can anyone tell me which are the best ramps to buy as going to Harrogate show on Friday and hopeful to get some, are the quattro ones better than the triple ones or are others better. bought some but i think they are for caravans !! (might be time to learn before parting with my cash) or does it not matter, over to you guys.

I bought the quatro ones and not keen. The steps are too short making it difficult to locate accurately. Am going to revert to my old triples.

The new Milenco Trident levelers go higher then the quattro but as there are only 3 pockets i'ts harder to get precise levelling.

I have the triples and find them easy to use and store. So far always been able to get 99% level. We have needed them on every trip so far.

The quattros dont fit under my 2013 Rollerteam. The bodywork is too low and we can only reverse onto them in certain situations. We race motocross so always need ramps. Have gone back the Fiamma ones. Worth checking first.

Since 1996, had Elddis/Swift/Rapido/Rimor/Chausson MHs. Autocruise/Globecar PVCs/Compactline i-138
As has been mentioned the size of each level on the quattros is smaller so the wheel doesn't sit on them as comfortably as the triple level ones, at the time we looked at them our camper had 15" wheels and we decided against them for this reason, now we have 16" wheels so glad we did.

Got quatros here, never use them, and they take up a lot of storage space.

We had the Quattro, good but the curve was not big enough for our tyres and caused bending of some of the plastic fins.
We last year bought the tridents which hug the bottom of the tyres much better. I am aware that some vehicles cant get them under the front bumpers but our 2010 AT TAG fits fine.

Triples for us, had them for 9 years - they work a treat. (y)

Quatros too big, bulky and heavy IMHO.

I use Waffle Boards and some blocks of wood. Very easy to drive up and adjust. You can also use them in wet weather under front wheels. Not the cheapest but had them for 7 years and still going strong.

We have Quatros, came as part of the deal on our new van, along with a Cadac BBQ & Remoska Oven(y)
I do use them, they are large, quite heavy, but fit in their carry bag keeping the van garage clean.
First time I used them, some of the plastic grippers flattened out, but they are still serviceable. We have needed the top rung on a couple of occasions to get levelish.

They are a lot cheaper than E&P Hydraulic Levelers, and yes I am so jealous, but cannot justify the 5K as I am a Scot.
