The product is well made, sturdy, practical and looks great. The scissors stairs fold into the small area and it takes a little force to open. Once it's in place, it flushes against the ceiling leaving no gaps or traces behind as if it is part of the original structure. Be sure to leave some room in the perimeter of the frame for easy installation. I went by the book and it got too tight when trying to flush the frame to the ceiling. BUY ON AMAZON
