We now use Milenco Quattro ramps, we used to use the Fiamma ramps, each has their pros and cons.
The Milenco ramps are deeper than the Fiamma so they offer a greater range of height adjustment but as Fiona W, they're heavy at about 10kg, Mrs Wez does struggle with them.
The Fiamma ramps are much shallower and much lighter but don't over as much of a range of adjustment.
I prefer the Milenco ones because they offer a greater range of adjustment, Mrs Wez prefers the Fiamma ones because they're easier to handle so it's a case of horses for courses.
Our current MH is 3.8t, our first two MHs were heavier, both sets of ramps coped with the weight.
Some people use lengths of wood to build their ramps, this could be cheaper but then there's the storage space and the difficulty of drying them when they get damp.

We have the Trident 3 Levelers. We find them much easier to 'mount' as the wheel cups are much larger. Never had to go above the middle cup.
Very bulky but they travel in the loo so not a real problem. If for any reason we don't use them on the site we pop them in a corner of the cab out of the way.

We only take with us a few lengths of scaffold board, cut to size, as the wheels sit on the level. If the slope is too much for what we have we either look for an alternative pitch or we drive onto the pitch as most Peugeot/Fiat are nose down so you might not need to level?
