$139 for the ladder $100 for the product liability insurance

Greetings:

Had 4 of these at work. All are now broken. The two problems we had were,
first, telescoping component pulled apart during extension, second, breaking
under load while being climbed. They're aluminum, so when they broke while
being climbed, they cracked rather than bent... in other words, no warning.
No serious injuries, but one guy almost suffered serious groin damage.
Fortunately just a pair of ripped pants and bad scratch on inner thigh.
Won't be replacing them.
