Warranty
- Frames & hardware
- 5 years from delivery
- Covers, foam & fabric
- 1 year from delivery
Covers manufacturing faults — a weld, a hinge, a frame that fails in normal use, a seam or a zip that goes. We repair it, send the part, or replace the piece.
It doesn't cover chewing, scratching, damage from misuse, or anything loaded past its stated weight limit. Nor does it cover normal wear: sisal fraying is the post doing its job, and carpet treads mat down with use.

The landing is what does the damage
Small dogs rarely stop jumping onto the sofa. They just land worse. Gorse is soft the whole way through, with no frame and no hard edge to catch a hip.

About Gorse Foam Dog Stairs with Washable Cover, 2.6" Rise, up to 60 lb
Small dogs rarely stop jumping onto the couch. They just land worse. A dachshund or a shih tzu lands on the front legs with the spine still extended, and after enough years the landing is what does the damage, not the climb. Gorse is a set of foam dog stairs that is soft the whole way through: high-density foam, no frame, no hard edge to catch a hip on the way past.
The steps are shallow on purpose. A 2.6-inch rise is low enough for short legs and old joints to take one at a time instead of hauling. The treads are wide ochre corduroy, which gives small claws something to hold, and the sides are a green-and-white ticking stripe, so it reads as a footstool rather than equipment parked beside the couch.
The whole cover unzips and goes in the machine. This is the piece of furniture a dog stands on with muddy feet twice a day.
Why Gorse works for short-legged and senior dogs
- 2.6-inch rise per stepshort legs and stiff joints take one step at a time.
- 3, 4 or 5 stepsreaching 15.7, 19.9 or 21.3 inches, for a couch cushion or a bed.
- Holds up to 60 lbmore than most foam stairs; a Labrador is still too much.
- No framea slipped paw lands on foam all the way through.
- Wide corduroy treadsgrip for small claws.
- Full-length zip, machine-washable coverwash cool; the foam core stays dry inside.
- Non-slip fabric baseset it against the couch on polished floors and it stays.

Which height do you need?
Measure the height of the couch cushion or mattress, not the frame. Three steps reaches 15.7 inches, four 19.9, five 21.3. If you are between two sizes, size up: a dog will step down onto a top step that sits slightly proud but will refuse one that is short. Gorse is for small and medium dogs up to 60 lb. A Labrador will compress the foam too far, and for a big dog Cascade or our wooden stairs are the better choice. At 21.3 inches it will not reach a 25-inch bed without a step at the top.
Questions about foam dog stairs
Which size do I need?
Measure the cushion or mattress height, not the frame. Three steps reaches 15.7 in, four reaches 19.9 in, five reaches 21.3 in. If you are between two, size up.
How heavy a dog will it take?
Up to 60 lb. It is built for small and medium dogs; a Labrador will compress the foam too far. For a big dog, look at our wooden stairs instead.
Does the cover really come off?
Yes. A full-length zip runs down one side; machine wash cool and air dry. The foam core stays dry inside.
Is there any assembly, and will it slide on a wood floor?
It is a single foam piece with no frame, so there is nothing to put together. The base is a grippy non-slip fabric and the weight of the foam helps; on polished parquet, set it against the couch so the couch takes the push.
How long does shipping take?
Free tracked shipping on every US order. Orders ship within 1–3 business days and arrive 6–15 business days door to door. US only.
What if it's wrong for us?
Send it back within 30 days of delivery, unused and in its original packaging, for a refund. If it arrives damaged or it is not what you ordered, we cover the return shipping.
