Retractable Fire Escape Ladder - 3 Story, 25 Feet - Hausse

Tammy Long: When I tried this product out, it was a complete fail. I could not get down this in an emergency. It is very flimsy and cheaply made. My husband just threw it in the garbage. So sad. This would not save anyone.

Ben Grimshaw: I haven’t tested them out yet but I’m confident that when I need them they will do the job.

RCulhane: The ladder is very heavy so I’m assuming it’s well made.

Don Pieronek: Looks well made. Probably need to do a training test with grandchildren since if they don't do it they probably wouldn't even know to use it should it be needed. I have a brick home, 2x6 walls and need to verify it grips well on a first floor window exiting test. Will update experience as it will be tested next week. Although a parent would "probably" be around it needed, if not, I would "minimally" want them to be able to hang it from a window so an adult could go get them. Never had one when my kids grew up, but a TV show made me realize that I probably should have had at least one upstairs. Some part of home are 3 stories thus I bought the long one, but due to weight I wouldn't get one longer than you need. Not that heavy for an adult but want to see if a kid can use it.

Allan Boudreau: Product is sturdy and well constructed. Red storage Bag is very useful and convenient to keep ladder by the egress window.

Mike-K: I bought two of these 25ft ladders for a summer home. I removed one unit from its bag and hung it out the window. Yeah, in a pinch it would be a God Send. But, I found two rather mild shortcomings:

1) The handlebars that grip across the bottom of the window are quite wide (I suppose to accommodate thick walls). When draped onto a typical 2x6 exterior wall, there's a lot of play which causes the bars to rock upward on the interior part of the wall as weight is applied to the ladder. Yikes, talk about a scary feeling as those handlebars suddenly shift! But, on close examination it's the window's interior molding that seemed to catch the handlebar and I wasn't 100% confident that my 200lbs wouldn't cause the molding to fail. Then what? I'll assume no one else had this concern, so I'll hope for the best. OK, next:

2) The bright red bag is terrific... but when I placed it in the closet it occurred to me that it's easy to forget its there. Further, the bag's lettering shows "Emergency" in big bold letters, but mentions "ladder" in small letters and only on the SIDE of the bag. Instead, I'd rather see "FIRE LADDER" in huge letters on the top of the bag to constantly remind...
