I was at Target this weekend and they have this 12' tall collapsing ladder

feet of it leaned it against a shelf and stepped on the first rung trying to
get a feel how sturdy it is and a store clerk came running to me and asked
me to step down as "it's not safe".

So there is no easy way to test out this ladder. *It is easy to carry which
is a big plus and takes up hardly any space.

It's priced at $99.99 (or so I thought) but searching on Target's website
it's priced at $199.99...so it could be the price on the shelf was
mislabeled...I am not sure.

Anyone has any experience (good or bad) on these collapsable aluminum
ladders?

Thanks,

My limited experience with them tells me they come in two flavors.
One is a little less sturdy than standard and a little heavier. The
other is more sturdy than standard ladders, and a lot heavier. If you
don't need the other features (folding, odd configurations etc.) then
stick with standard designs.
