Reviews from 2008/09 said there were very sharp edges from which some dogs suffered severe cuts. Has that problem been resolved?

We never had a problem with it. The surface is rough yet for good traction it is needed. The dog that we bought it for is deceased so it is currently stored . We have another large dog and if needed we have it. It is strong and we never had concern of it collapsing with our dog. I hope Suzanne this helps provide some comfort about it.

i'm not sure what the problem. i bought this product twice - originally for an old guy (around 2006) with arthritic hips - when he passed i gave it away - thought i woundn't need it again - DUMB. I then had a young crazy dog tear her ACL and bought another - this was 2011 or12. I never had any problem with either one - it is a life saver and i wont be giving this one away

Susan, I have never had any problem with the Solvit ramp. Before responding I carefully checked mine and found no problem with its design or construction. I love the ramp, use it almost daily and highly recommend it. It is by far the best ramp I have ever owned. However, because aluminum makes it light weight yet strong, it can also be damaged if not handled and stored properly. My ramp is maybe two years old and as good as new so if there was a problem with an older model, I can only assume it has been corrected.

I am considering buying this ramp and have read most of the reviews before I make my decision. I just read a review dated 2011 that these sharp edges have since been corrected and the once sharp edges are now a sturdy protective plastic.

I have not had any problems cutting with these knives. My old ones were so bad they should of been replaced long ago. It is a pleasure having a good knife

Yes! We've had ours for over a year and our dogs go through water all the time and we've never had a problem!

This issue seems to be from 2012 and not a recent problem. I can tell you that the bag of Taste of the Wild I ordered within the last 5 weeks has been fine. My dogs have not experienced any digestive issues and in fact, love it and are doing very well on it. Googling Taste of the Wild and Salmonella will bring you several articles--but, none are more recent than May of 2012. I feel confident in recommending this product to anyone, now...

I bought mine about 3 months ago for a Golden Retriever puppy and don't see a problem. The only thing on the cage that appears "sharp" at all might be the little 1/2" metal connectors that connect the sides together. They are positioned along the outside edges and don't appear to be a problem.

I don't think the preexisting edges will cause a problem but it is hard plastic so if you cut a sharp edge its possible you could get injured. I used a staple gun to attach it to my banister so it's very smooth and the edges are hardly noticeable to my baby

Chris, where did you read that? It would be helpful to know so that I can make an educated decision on whether to keep buying these for my dog. Thanks.

Your dogs must be clean when clipping. If you are clipping them without bathing, the dirty fur will quickly dull the blade. The blades cannot be sharpened, according to the guy who does my blade sharpening. I am buying my second blade and have had my clipper for about 15 months. I am a groomer and use it for small areas on dogs and for cats.

I haven't had any problems with mine. The only edge i had was on the outside and a simple nail file took care of it.

No, but I've had one of these for about ten years now, and it's just started having problems cutting within the past month. I looked to see if it could be fixed, but it looks like I'm better off just to replace it.

I am sorry but I cannot answer the question as I have not experience d this issue with my dog

That has never been a problem. However, I think that might depend on the dog, it's diet and it's health!

My dogs have not caused damage, but my cats have sharpened their claws on the top (does cause damage). It has held up very well to the abuse that we (3 60 lb dogs, 3 active cats, 2 rowdy kids and friends, and 2 adults) put it through. I have had it 3? years?

Yes, but I would read some of the recent reviews about sharp edges cutting fingers before buying this. Mine were returned.

No, the edges of the holes are not sharp. The holes are really smooth and well-rounded. This pan is still in really good condition by the way. It's very durable. I still have it.

I've had mine for approximately three years. No problems. I have three big dogs and four cats so I am diligent about keeping the area around it clean so it can function properly. I think this is a great product and often recommend it to my friends.

I don't know. I haven't had any problems with mine. Have you gone online to Sharp website? These companies usually have contact information. What's happening with yours?Sorry I couldn't help. Good luck.
