really good and useful

i like and was free shiping.
cheaper than buy in the store and hard time to carry home.

ladder is unstable

2004-06-13
Due to the cheapnest or stupidity of this ladder company,the ladder has a plastic flimsy flexible head that causes one of the legs to be shorter then the others resulting in a dangerous,wobbly ladder.
Its a wonderful light ladder except for this enginnering design.
You have to stretch the ladder out by holding the top plastic head and twist it to lengthen the short leg to make it longer,then its safe.
I took it right back to the store for a refund!
Also,I had a green head rated at 225 lbs,the picture shows a red head which is rated at 250 lbs.theres some kind of mixup with the color head and weight of the ladder

Excellent construction.

Some weeks ago I got the 6' version of this Werner stepladder.
I have used it several time (indoor and outdoor).
The weight is amazing. The stability for this weight is excellent. With my own weight (215lb) I feel myself as on the Golden Gate Bridge.
All features together (plus price) make this construction as 5 stars-true-brand-name item.

Very DANGEROUS! Use Extreme Caution With this Ladder!

I do not recommend this ladder. The ladder is rated at 200lbs. maximum. Unfortunately it buckled with my 170lbs. upon it, sending me to the ground. I now have a back problem and broken fingers. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!

Sturdy and Affordable

I've climbed nearly to the top of this latter, and it feels very secure. The shelf offers enough space to hold several items. Well worth the price.

LIght weight but reasonably stable

Not suitable for heavy work, but well-priced and perfectly OK for light duties. I use it mainly for fruit picking and pruning and it's fine for that. Also reasonably stable on uneven dirt surfaces.
Well worth the price.

Super Light & Handy Ladder

2008-06-01
This review is short... this is simply the handiest ladder I've owned. So very much lighter than the wooden 6 foot ladder I used to lug around. Being unused to using such a featherweight that at first I felt leary of its potential. But this ladder is sturdy & carries my 180 pounds with ease.

Good deal, does the job.

When my wife and I decided to do some painting in our house, we realized we needed a ladder to do taping and such on the high ceilings. Looking around for a while, we settled on this one because of the good price, decent reviews, and fast shipping. I haven't felt any of the unsteadiness that some other reviewers have mentioned. Does it shift a bit beneath my weight? Sure. But not uncomfortably so. (On the other hand, I'm used to clambering around on ladders, so maybe I'm just used to it.) For the price, though, I'd say this can't be beat!

Works just fine

Had no problem with this ladder. It's not industrial strenght but all I do is change out light bulbs. Works just fine for those kind of light activities.

I needed a light weight ladder to do home repairs in my rental and in my home. The ceilings are 8 1/2 foot in down-stairs rooms. This is a life saver..I especially like the flip down paint can holder which also has a 3-hole tool holder for your hammer, screwdriver or what your using. That is nice. Its the perfect height for reaching the ceilings to put up ceiling fans, paint trim, put up holiday decorations...I have used this for so many things..It was price right even with shipping it was under 70 dollars. Great! Thanks.
