Amazon.com Product Description

The Werner QuickClick stabilizer uses a spring-loaded locking latch for easy installation and removal. By putting its two legs spread 46 inches apart on the roof, the stabilizer will provide 10 inches of clearance from the work surface, giving you access to the roof's edge. The rubber end caps protect the work surface, while the hook holds paint cans. The stabilizer is compatible with single and extension ladders with 1-1/4-inch round rungs, 1-1/2-inch flat rungs, or 1-3/4-inch flat rungs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not compatible with MT series, November 11, 2005

I just bought the MT-22 and was intrigued by the versatility of the Quickclick but it took me a while to confirm that it would not work on the MT series. The website states that people who bought the MT-22 also bought the AC78 which may cause some confusion. I hope this will save someone some grief some day.

Five stars so it would not skew the current rating.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great accessory but not to be used on roofs, November 6, 2009

I received the product and had it installed on my ladder in minutes. The quickclick is a wonderful design and the construction is light and sturdy. The amazon write-up mentioned that the ladder could be placed on the roof itself. Well, this did not work for me. The attachment goes on the top two rungs of the ladder and the supports are basically perpendicular to the ladder. This is great for a wall but not too good for roofs. I have a steep roof (5/12) but still I couldn't get the angle to land the rubber supports on the roof. The gutter kept getting on the way. The problem was exacerbated by the fact that the attachment has a bulky and sharp support on the second rung which can easily damage your gutter if you are not careful. Good product but I wish the attachment could be angled to be placed on the roof.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buying my second one., May 15, 2001

I already had one of these and since I'm now getting a whole ladder jack setup along with a second ladder, I definitely wanted one of these to go along with it. I'm sure they wouldn't recommend what I'm about to say for safety reasons, but I would point out that this item can make an aluminum extension ladder a lot more stable on slightly uneven ground. Because of the broad spread, the ladder will twist slightly to make up the difference and it's really solid!

This thing goes on or off in 5 seconds. No way would I ever get one of those bolt on kind. The cam action that holds it to the ladder looked a little iffy when I first saw it, but if you examine it you'll see that it's very well designed and I don't think you'll ever have a problem with it. I haven't.
