Hello:
Would appreciate any opinions on the "Little Giant" ladders.
Guess they are available in a few different capacity/size ratings; all seem
to
be in the $ 300 - $ 400 range.
Pretty expensive, but looks like something to consider for a new homeowner's
gift.
Was wondering:
-Worth the money ?
-Well built ?
-Safe ?
-Better than separate ladders ? e.g., a tall extension type for outside
work, and
perhaps a good step ladder instead ?
-how about near electrical wires; should one only consider fiberglass type
ladders, or is AL still
considered safe if one is careful ?
-etc.
Any other thoughts would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
Don't know about the Little Giant, but I bought one of those Werner 3
hinged jointed multi-position ladders from Lowes a couple of years ago.
It was heavy to begin with, but it seems to be getting heavier the older
I get.
I have a 20' aluminum slider, a 5' folder, and a couple of 3 or 4
steppers that I will grab before that Werner.
