I already know that answer. Last year I stepped off the roof onto an
aluminum ladder and the ladder buckled and I went with it. The doctor


Were you over its rating? Or near it?

in the ER said I was lucky to land on my ass. Nothing was broke but I

I'll never own another aluminum ladder!!!!


But be sure not to buy wrought iron lawn furniture.
