Little Giant Ladder Systems SkyScraper M15 8-15ft Adjustable Stepladder

GeoPat: It's hard to beat the versatility of a SkyScraper over a regular extra-large stepladder, but the price is also skyscraper like. Also shipping these things are brutal, so even though you ordered a new one, after the brutality of LTL shipping you'll likely receive what looks like a used one instead - and be sure to fully inspect for damages before accepting delivery. Though SkyScrapers are very sturdy, and easily support the weight, they are a bit shaky going up and down. Also, the instructions on how to setup are terrible. You'll find using a medium stepladder to assist raising and lowering a SkyScraper makes it way easy and takes up vastly less space (ie. spread legs a bit apart, then raise up or down 1 to 2 rungs at a time alternating sides). I found it a lot safer doing it this way as well. Also, unless it's damaged, you can forget about returning it as you will have to pay the return shipping, which can be more than what you paid for the ladder.

ruralblade: Superbly stable A frame ladder with a great, dependable design. Once it’s up, there is very little flex or wiggle, making the trip up and down by you and your assistant much less stressful. The base protectors on the feet are non-marking and didn’t hurt my nice new hardwood flooring. Only downside is the locking mechanism, unlike the other Little Giant A frames, doesn’t allow adjustments as easily and the ladder really needs to be fully laid flat before any height adjustments can be made. The frame could be perfected by widening the tines on the upper ladder to allow for a wider base for your feet (especially so high up), adding the same locking mechanism as they have on their smaller ladders, and allowing for variable height adjustments on the individual feet as they have on their smaller ladders. The ladder has, owing to its very wide base, a need for a large open space to raise and lower it, which cannot be done safely with one person - just be aware.

Amazon Last Resort: The ladder is far more sturdy than I expected at its full extension of 15'. I also have the platform. I feel very comfortable at 60+ using this ladder. I have figured out how to incrementally raise the ladder from its fully retracted position to its fully extended. It works great for 2 story staircase uses. Keep in mind that it does require about 10' when fully extended, but still only 36" wide. Excellent solution for painting, drywall work, changing light bulbs, cleaning foyer lights. It is unexpectedly easier to move around at around 8' in length full collapsed and folded. Great value considering you could probably easily sell it to a contractor.

Marcus Aurelius: This ladder is expensive (for me) but worth every penny if you like doing your own projects SAFELY. The ladder is extremely sturdy and i feel safe even at towards the top. Set up is tricky the first time and you will probably need at least two people and a small step ladder to do so. Collapses down for storage.

Chester Tam: The 15 foot ladder was just what I expected. Needed 2 people to extend the ladder indoors in the A position(on a 6ft ladder to extend) to reach the smoke detectors(18ft) high. Unable to fully extend the ladder on the floor to max height and then lift it up due to space constraints in the house. Other than needing 2 people to extend the ladder indoors, the ladder was sturdy and I never felt uneasy at the top of the ladder. Would recommend to anyone who needs an A frame ladder that can extend due to height constraints for mobility indoors.

Jason R.: This is the hugest A frame ladder you could ever buy, when it's opened up you almost want to laugh because it makes you feel like it must have been a prop in Honey I Shrunk The Kids. That being said, you can use this anywhere you need to get high up but don't have anything to lean a typical extension ladder against to reach it. That being said, you absolutely need help to set this up safely I found - do NOT plan on lugging it around by yourself unless you're strong as an ox and twice as big as a regular human being.

That being said, it is typical of all Little Giant Ladder ladders in that it is built extremely well in the USA and the fit and finish of everything is impeccable. I climb up the two ladders I own they've made and feel completely secure at any height - you just need to get past the heavy weight that comes with the package.
