Telescoping Ladder, SocTone 12.5 FT Aluminum Lightweight Extension Ladder with 2 Triangle Stabilizers, Heavy Duty 330lbs Max Capacity, Collapsible Ladder with Hooks for RV or Outdoor Work

I was skeptical of telescoping ladders for a long time but found myself needing a compact ladder that could allow me to reach the top of a vehicle that is roughly 10 feet tall. Without getting a huge standard ladder and putting it on a ladder rack on the roof (not an option in my case), or taking up huge amounts of room inside, I finally decided to take a chance and give this one a try. It checked all the boxes, so, on paper at least, it seemed great. I’m truly impressed by how light it is compared to almost any other ladder I’ve owned. It’s simple to carry around and setting it up couldn’t be simpler. It can extend even higher than I will likely ever need so I have the option to use it only partly extended, which feels sturdier, though I’m not sure how much difference that really makes. But I have the option to stay relatively low, or to reach even higher places, if needed. It locks securely in place when you extend each section so it feels very secure. When completely retracted to its smallest size it stores away easily until I need it again. One feature I wasn’t expecting is that, when lowering each section, it stops just above where your fingers might get pinched, so I think you would have to really try to smash a fingie with this. It’s a little bit bendy if you have the base out too far, but finding the balance between stability and not bowing the thing too much is pretty easy. Overall, I’m very pleased with it. I expect it to get a lot of use and I feel safe climbing it. It’s versatile enough that I expect to have it with me even when the current use case ends.

Good, reliable.

Très bien et satisfait

I use this daily in my home inspection business to climb into attics. Light and portable and sturdy for what i need.

Step distance is perfect.
