In an emergency, there's not much time to think. That's why we made the X-IT Emergency Fire Escape Ladder so lightweight and easy to use every time.

It is truly the strongest, safest, smallest, and fastest escape ladder on the market, and universally rated as a better and safer product than the "old-style" chain and/or rope ladders. The X-IT Emergency Escape Ladder is tangle free, flame resistant, tested to 1,000 pounds, weighs less than 8 pounds, deploys in seconds, and stores to dimensions about the size of a shoe box or a 2 liter soda bottle. Keep an X-IT Fire Escape Ladder in every upper floor room.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding ladder to have available, March 23, 2004

I have this 2-story model and the 3-story model. I have already installed the mounting plate (optional). I had two different types of escape ladders and returned them both when I got this one. They cost more and were no where near the ease or quality. Don't listen to the first reviewer. This person must be refering to a different product. Key note: You don't have to install the mount. I am going to purchase another one of these for another room!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good ladder for older houses, June 11, 2007

I agree with the second person. I bought one of these then bought a second one by Kidde because Home Depot stop selling the X-IT. I have an old house with deeper windows and the Kidde doesn't work without some modification to the window, which I don't want to do. That's why I did a search for another X-IT which I am about to buy through Amazon. The X-IT was very easy to put up and I prefer to install the bracket below the window.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a Portable Fire Escape Ladder, January 31, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: X-IT Products AL-15 2-Story Emergency Escape Ladder (Tools & Home Improvement)

Anyone who thinks this is a portable ladder is wrong. It requires installation. Once you open it and try to replace it in the box see how excited you are about this product. If you want to feel a sense of safety try another type of ladder. A less expensive and light ladder is only a value if you can use it quickly in an emergency.
