If you do not extend this fully to 70", how well does it hold its position? I don't have room for the full 70" in my closed garage. More like 55".

It holds fine if you have both ends on something of course. Because the car "end" is leaning on the bummer and the ground "end" which has a different shape (see pic)...it wedges it. Its a great little ramp. Wayfair.com has it on sale again with free shipping :)

it would be a steep ascend/descend for the dog, but it would hold just fine. it is very sturdy. Personally, I would avoid going all the way into the garage and may pull out a bit so the ramp could extend longer, just because the climb would not be so steep and it would be much easier for the dog especially if it is a larger dog. My dog is a lab/ retriever an she does better with more length

It just makes the ramp a little too steep to get up for my dogs unless its fully extended

It will hold its position really well at any length. The non-slip portion of the ends is very secure. It won't slide or shimmy around at all. And although it's a pretty simple design, it's very well made. It might be awkward to try to use it for access to a back seat or passenger seat. It's designed ideally for getting a dog in and out of the back of an SUV/truck. Definitely worth the purchase!

I think it would be OK. Extending it less will, of course, make the ramp steeper. My wife often doesn't extend it all the way and it works fine. I usually pull the van out of the garage before using the ramp and always extend it fully.The sliding feature is such that as you extend it, it is stable in all positions. There is always a lot of friction between the two pieces. It does take some force to extend the ramp. There is no "locking position" when it is fully extended.

I don't always extend it all the way. It holds position regardless of how much it is extended. Great ramp - love it.

My 17" fit on it, no problem, it just wouldn't hold it up...if I didn't hold onto the legs, it tipped over. Hope this helps!

I have one that is holding a plasma 65" for safety. I gave a little tug to make sure that it wouldn't tip and holds fine. I don't think you'll have an issue with a 70". Just follow the simple directions and you'll be good to go.

I have a 65 inch, 68# on mine with no problem. The unit is solid enough to support much greater weight.

I have a Samsung 55" TV and it is 24" from the corner to the back of the TV but the bracket is not fully extended. The bracket can probably extend a couple more inches. On a different note, the bracket that mounts to the back of the TV covers the inputs. I had to cut off part of the bracket.

Like the previous answer stated, I am sure it can handle the weight however I would be concerned about the holes lining up and on my 60 inch I had to reverse the brackets for it to work ( I called them to make sure that was ok to do and they said yes ), I would seek to find a bracket that matches your 70 inch, not worth risking it not fitting and having to pay to send it back

I have a 46" and it's about 2 inches shorter than the length of this stand so I'm assuming a 55" will probably exceed the length by a few inches. I have my TV mounted on the wall above the stand but I wouldn't hesitate to set the TV on top as it is very sturdy, heavy and stable. The quality and looks far exceeded my expectations. I'm sure it would handle the weight of the 55" with no problems. Hope that helps!

At least 28 inches. It would probably go closer to 29 or 30 if you fully extended it.

We have a 70 inch as well and do not feel that it is sturdy enough for it. We decided to use a different stand for the 70 and placed our 55 inch on it instead.

I've got a 60 incher on it, no problem. Would even handle a 70 if you need that kind of size.

It should hold a 60". It's very sturdy and well balanced. I have a 47" on it and there's plenty of extra room on the base.

Mary I have it mounted to my wall and it extends about 24 inches fully extended. Keep in mind if it is mounted into a built in entertainment center you want to give it a couple of inches so it can be rotated. Hope that helps

The coincidence is I just measured it to move. It is just over 55 inches. I have had it almost 2 years and it has held up very well.

I see what you mean on the size issue. I would suggest you contact the seller to clarify. I use it on a 60 " and love the way it moves side to side and tilts.

I have a 55" and it does it fine; I don't see any issues stepping up to a 60". This has been the best mount I have ever had, but I would hope so considering the cost.

I have mine at 40.5" and there is enough room to let it out about 5 more inches.

Hello Charlene. I would not use this in the Garage with the door closed all the way. I leave my garage door open about one inch. You need to have some air movement due to the CO2 from the exhaust.
