Little Giant Ladders Velocity, 17-Ft Folding Multi-Position Ladder, Aluminum, 300 lb Load Capacity, Type 1A Extra Heavy Duty, 18-Ft Reach, with Ratchet Levelers and Wheels (15417-801)

What can I tell you? This is the coolest ladder I think I’ve ever owned. Worth every single penny. Versatile, strong. Only downside I suppose is there’s no shelf at the top for setting a paint can, but you can work around it. Very sturdy. Feel very confident on the this ladder.

Purchased for my dad- easy to use once you understand it. Very sturdy in both the V shape and as a lean-to. It is very heavy. Folds up pretty tight.Overall, it’s exactly what he wanted and worth the purchase.

Hands down, the best quality and safest ladder I've ever owned..I sprung for the leg leveling version and then bought the trestle brackets that make this ladder a mini scaffold system. Well worth it.Not the cheapest priced ladder, but there's some good sale prices on occasion, and well worth the full price, anyway. The material and build quality are excellent.Use common sense with this, and it will greatly diminish your chance of getting injured, as well as last a good long time.

I bought the 17 ft model for use with our new motorhome. I bought this during prime day and it was the best value for the height. If I were to step it up to the 20 something foot ladder it would have cost me over $100 more but for $150 I could not pass up the opportunity to purchase. Although the latter at its peak does not quite reach the 12 ft roof of the motorhome I use it to easily get on the roof without any issue. I use this ladder as a supplement to the rear ladder as well so I can easily and safely get on the and off the roof. The one thing that I hoped that would have come with this ladder was the extension ladder safety rail extenders. I'm not great with heights and get a little nervous so having that extra hand hold to step on and off the roof would have been preferential, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I ended up purchasing the red tool bag and wingspan. Although I don't think I'm going to need the wingspan on the RV it is a very useful tool to have the ladder not scratch up the surface of the RV. And a little red tool bag that attaches to the rungs of the ladder has been a tremendous help while doing maintenance on our RV. It is very lightweight. And with the adjustable legs it is made performing maintenance while on an uneven and rocky surface up breeze. To have the wheels has been a nice pleasure compared to previous ladders and makes it easy to go from one side of the RV to the other. The best part of this ladder is how compact it is as it fits in one of our basement storage compartments very easily and without taking up much space. We use the space between the rungs as propane tank holders so they don't move around while in transit. And yes they are empty propane tanks. I would highly recommend buying this ladder and if at a good price definitely get the step up size wise to the ladder as I know it would make it easier to get onto the roof when in a frame mode.

Easy to adjust height etc. doesn’t take long to figure out. The flared legs on the bottom give extras support-it feels very sturdy. To be fair, it is heavier than your average ladder- because the aluminum is thicker for strength , etc. but it does have wheels at the bottom, so that helps with maneuverability.It is worth the hype, and is a good design. Husband was on it cleaning out the gutters, while Little Me stood at the bottom watching out- all went well, and we both were confident that it was safe…and yes, i did get on it and climbed up to clean out a gutter -it felt very safe, I wasn’t wobbly at all.We bought a used one..it was just like new, only cheaper..:) the box was heavy, and had to be delivered specially, so keep that in mind when you order it..you may have to pick it up at the post office..though I don’t know how your postal service is for you. Just be aware of when it’s coming and how you’ll be getting it…just be careful folks ..it’s heavy. And we think it’s worth it.I hope this helps …you who’ve been thinking about a new , and better ladder.Cheers !!

Very heavy. Not as easily extended as send on the video. They use a young strong guy to show you how easy the set up is.

Our old ladder was scary. This ladder is not scary at all. This ladder had cleaned gutters, hung plastic, and helped with painting projects. We used it to replace all the light fixtures in our house. It is so sturdy even for 200 pound people.

Love this new Lil Giant! I owned the smaller 13’ model but needed more reach. This is very lightweight for the extra 4’ of reach! Love the adjustable feet that level the ladder on uneven surfaces. I opted to include the wall standoff. Feels very stable, even at the highest level! Love the updated locking mechanisms to extend and retract the ladder. Much easier to use than the older model I previously owned.Extremely satisfied with this purchase and recommend without reservation!!
