I used to have 14' and 16' double sided fiberglass step ladders. I

seem to recall the pair was around a grand nearly 15 years ago.

I bought an 8 foot 1A single sided stepladder 20+ years ago. I thought it was expensive then. Home Depot is selling my ladder for $150 today. Which does not seem too expensive. Home Depot also is selling the ladder in the post starting this thread. $385. Werner 8 ft. Fiberglass Extension Trestle Step Ladder with 300 lb. Load Capacity Type IA Duty Rating

Stupid question: Is it intended that the user climb onto the
highest rungs? I'm guessing those are there so that you can
climb onto the sides of the base of the "regular part" of the
ladder, and use those rungs for "hanging on". What is correct?
