Anybody have any recommendations for a particular make or design, and how good they are on softer ground? Thanks in advance for your responses.
 
I use fiama ones never had any probs ,on soft ground I've cut the base out of bread trays that rolls etc get delivered in for soft ground and in the snow.cut out the base then chop into tyre width I get three turns of the wheel in length when they're joined up and have never been stuck yet.if ground is soft lay them down then put you ramps on top then a a couple behind so when you roll back keep going till hard ground is there.if it's really soft don't be a daftie and drive in then get stuck,walk it if in doubt.
Just a rule I use and find ok for me
Hope this is of use

I just have 2 fiamma (yellow) levellers.

These are OK on softish ground.
I also have 2 planks of wood tyre width and about 80 cm long.
Reverse onto the levelling blocks (rear wheels)to raise the rear a touch.
And front wheels on the planks.

Once moving should be Ok but keep moving (not too slowly) and dont make sharp turns.
Walk back to get the Blocks and wood

Thanks guys, sensible advice, looks like its Fiamma for me to!
 
I've got the Thule leveling blocks, mainly because they are slightly taller than the Fiamma ones. I also have some blocks of wood with lugs on them that the Thule ramps connect into. These I made and they give me about another 2 - 3" of height if I need it, but I don't carry them all the time because of the weight.
 
I've got a bag of 10 Lynx Levellers Lynx Levelers Have found them to be very versatile on uneven ground and also as mud tracks. Cheap but reasonable quality. Assume you can get them on eBay as well as other retailers.
 
I use the Thule levellers, these have been good, a few minor chips and cracks to the underside through using the on hard ground, other than that good quality.
 
I have Fiamma yellow blocks. Not all that impressed though as they seem to chip and split fairly easily on the edges; I also find that the maximum height is a bit limited. My van has 205/70x15 tyres and the width of the Fiamma blocks means that you have to be quite accurate with your placing to ensure the whole tyre is supported.

Was thinking about getting some Milenco blocks, anyone any experience with them?
 
Milenco triples plus 1 and half inch marine ply boards for soft ground or bit extra height, every inch counts lol
