DeZ Dan: Great stilts, do what they're supposed to and decent quality. One thing, these are like riding a bicycle, you're unlikely to hop on and be a pro immediately. It is unfortunate though, if you need to be 34" higher but never walked on these, then you'd need to start/learn how to walk on like 16" but then you won't be able to reach. These require practice and are also very dangerous. Use at your own risk, are the risks worth the benefit? Regardless I'm very happy with my purchase, these helped me get the job done.

Chris Durkin: So I'm a Professional Painter, and along with painting I do the occasional taping and drywalling and mudding, etc. Anyways, I bought these because I had a big job re-taping a huge bathroom in a very expensive house. The tape in the house was 15 years old and started cracking. Anyways, the ceiling in the bathroom at the peak is 12ft high, so when I ordered these I figured 40 inches, that's almost 4 feet off the floor so I should be able to just reach. Well, unfortunately I REALLY needed the extra 8 inches these are lacking to reach lol, so I'm stuck using ladders and a plank again. Just adds more work but I can't take a star off as that was totally my own fault. It's just weird that the 24-48" stilts are so much more. This is probably why, nobody wants these or something lol.
I have however used these on two paint jobs already, with regular 8-9 ft ceilings and these stilts are PERFECT for cutting in. I can't tell you how much time I save not having to climb up and down my step stool and move it every 2 minutes. I will be keeping these for this purpose alone, though I know I'll be able to use them for drywall/taping repairs in most houses and won't even need to raise them....

Amazon Customer: The stilts are very stable from 24" to 34" but beyond that you better have lots of confidence. The feet are very stable and seem like they will hold up very well over time. The springs are stiff but do allow a similar feeling to walking to be had. The foot straps are great and will not slip. The calf straps need great improvement; this is the only point of caution. I had these slip on me twice while walking unassisted and I had to go into a wide stance in order not to fall. I would highly recommend the buyer to purchase some short tie down straps with springs (similar to the feet) in order to be safe. I would highly recommend the manufacturer to change the clasp style on the legs to what is on the feet. Not having a spring assisted clasp on the calf is dangerous.
Overall: I would buy these stilts all day long. They are inexpensive and get the job done for someone who doesn't use them every day. Purchased for my basement finishing project (mudding and taping).

Erin Saylor: The media could not be loaded. Easy to assemble and adjust. I did buy leg pads separately so the calf strap didn't dig in. I've been using these for 2 months on drywall & painting, & really like them.
