4.0 out of 5 stars Climbing up the wall, June 24, 2009

A really handy solution of where to keep that ladder. This telescopic one can be kept in a small space and will be extremely useful if you do a professional job (surveyor for example) and need a ladder but drive a car.

The weight is acceptable and I think the manufacturing of this model is robust enough for plenty of use. I have, though, found a slight design flaw: the rungs have right-angled edges so that when the unit is leaning against something you place your foot on the apex of the rung. I'm surprised that this hasn't been solved by slightly curving the edge of the rungs, like any normal ladder.

It could be, of course, that this problem will be solved with the next model and advertised as: Now with new improved rungs! Get yours TODAY!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but narrower than expected, March 15, 2011

This review is from: Xtend & Climb 750P Aluminum Telescoping Ladder Type II Home Series, 8.5-Foot (Tools & Home Improvement)

Good little folding ladder, just as described, but was narrower than I'd expected.

Pros:
- Collapses down nicely, as-expected. Very compact, easy to store/move.
- Easy to use. It comes with good instructions/quick-use guides but it's a pretty intuitive operation
- anti-finger-snapping-mechanism. I'm sure they have a fancy, marketing name for it, but they've built it such that when you're re-collapsing the ladder it can't collapse down on your fingers. Very nice feature.

Cons:
- Heavier than I'd expected. Not back-breaking-heavy, but weightier than expected. (still pretty easy to move around)
- Stickers came off. As noted here (or maybe it was in the review for the 12ft model), the little colored stickers that help indicate 'locked' or 'unlocked' were coming off before I even opened it. Not too big a deal, they're a 'nice-to-have' - as long as you're reasonably careful, you won't even notice. I probably wouldn't if it hadn't been specifically called out in another review.
- Narrow. I'm not a tiny guy, but I'm also not *that* large (adult male, ~6' 2", 210lbs). This ladder felt very narrow climbing up it. Was a bit of an uncomfortable feeling.

Outstanding questions:
- Durability: The components are all solid enough, but I'm a little concerned about the over-all fitting. I've only had the unit for a short while and haven't had too many occasions to use it. I'll be curious to see how well it would survive more vigorous/long-term use.

One word of advice: I bought the 8.5' version and immediately regretted it. I should have gone one size higher/longer. Remember that when you use a ladder like this you aren't (shouldn't) be pointing it straight up. You'll want to angle it a bit for stability. So get a ladder that's a bit longer than you think you'll need.

Needed a ladder small, compact and lightweight to reach attic space. Fits between wall and bookshelf inconspicuously. Sturdy for the men in the household.
