takes a beating without compromising safety
By cecelia augustin
I worked for Pacific Bell for 7yrs as an outside technician installing phone lines. I used this ladder for 7yrs while it was stored on the top of my van and subjected to rain and heat. It took a beating without compromising safety and I used it to climb on roofs, run wire under eves, climb into attics, trim trees, etc. Now that I live out in the country, this is the ladder that will take care of all my climbing needs.

Sturdy Ladder for Heavy Jobs
By O. Gunther
I purchased this ladder about a month ago from Amazon. It arrived via their carrier (too big for UPS) about a week before Amazon's estimated delivery which was a nice surprise; unfortunately after I took it home (I had it delivered to my work) I found that one of the legs had been smashed at some point and there was a large crack in the fiberglass. So I called Amazon customer service and to their credit they setup a new delivery quickly and relatively effortlessly.I received my replacement ladder about a week later and was happy to find it in good working order. Being that I am a bigger guy (300 lbs+) I purchased this ladder for working around the house as I wanted a single ladder that could be used for multiple purposes. So far this ladder fits the bill very well. My thoughts thus far are:GOOD:-Well built-Well designed-Lightweight for such a ladder-Takes up less space (it serves the purpose of what would otherwise require two separate ladders)BAD:-Not a lot of thought put into ways a consumer might store the ladder (it seems to only ways are to lay it down flat or leaning against a wall. If you want to hang it sideways on a wall, the design does not support itself)-No top step or other area on the ladder to help with projects (i.e. to hold tools or materials while working on it)OTHER:-The rungs are round and rather painful if you attempt to climb it without sturdy shoes. I can't knock Werner for this as this ladder is obviously designed for commercial use, not residential so it is unlikely this was given much consideration. Still for anyone thinking about buying this for their home (like me) this is not a casual use ladder. It is big and bulky and is fit more for projects than fixing the quick burned out lightbulb.-Even though my replacement ladder was structurally fine, it still looked like it had received some abuse. I don't know if this was at Amazon's warehouse or if it happened in route via the carrier however the ladder already showed signs of wear. I can't blame Werner for this though and therefore I did not reduce the score in this review. Still it should be noted.-I was watching the price on this ladder (on Amazon) for probably a year as $300 to $400 is a lot for a ladder to use for residential use. Eventually the price fell to about 1/2 of the listed price which is when I pounced. I am not sure if it was a pricing mistake but within the hour of my purchase, the price went back up by over $100. So for me I feel like I got an extremely good deal on a ladder that should last me 20+ years.UPDATE: 09/26/2010 - I've had this ladder almost 2 years now and both its pros and cons have continued to be manifest themselves. While I am very happy with the build quality of the ladder, I find myself fantasizing about buying a new ladder every time I use it as the rungs really do hurt my feet. I am guessing most of the people who are in the market for a ladder of this type would be wearing reinforced boots while using it. I, unfortunately do not and tend to forget about it until I'm already up and working on it. I stand by my four star rating.

By John C. Bates Jr.
I was replacing this same ladder that was over 20 years old. I do a lot of tree maintenance and the "V" stabilization bar at the top of the extension is great for solid stability on a small to medium tree to get me to a limb for climbing. Then for working out on lower limbs of landscape trees the "A frame" ladder configuration works great. It is just a fine ladder!
