5.0 out of 5 stars Corner Buddy Ladder Stabilizer, September 20, 2002

This tool is a great addition to your favorite extension ladder. I have used ladder stabilizer/ stand-offs for years primarily to facilitate painting windows or to avoid crushing aluminum gutters. This is a great enhancement to this line of ladder accessories. It is especially useful when you are screwing sections of downspout together or working on corner boards. It allows you to place yourself right on the corner so you have very good control.

The tool also works nicely on flat walls or even curved wall surfaces. If you work around corners frequently, this is a great little accessory.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not good enough, August 12, 2005

Does not provide a good clearance of the corner area. If there is a downspout on the cornerboard then it does not clear this.

This review is from: Qualcraft 2470 Corner Buddy Aluminum Ladder Stabilizer (Tools & Home Improvement)

The Corner Buddy has worked well for me. It allows me to replace corner trim easily. Despite what others have said it does reach over gutter downspouts that are attached to corner trim.

I appreciate the unit's light weight due to its aluminum construction I just wish the paint didn't peel so easily off the metal. This is just a cosmetic issue though.

I also wish it would attach and remove from the ladder easier. The four wing nut fastened u-bolts are a bit primitive. A spring loaded clamping mechanism like the Werner ladder stabilizer would be slick.
