• My first ladder Review by Shereen
  

  Value

  I live in a condo with very high ceilings and little storage space. This ladder works out perfectly because it compacts nicely to fit in my closet. I have already used it once and it is easy to adjust and feels sturdy. (Posted on 9/19/11)
• Great buy! Review by vesuvius
  

  Value

  I just received my lil giant Type 1A ladder and I am very pleased with it. It is very easy to adjust and allows me to have one ladder that does the job for several different ladders. The hinges are easy to adjust and the locking mechanism are smooth and simple to use. The other thing I like is how stable I feel on the ladder even when 15 feet off the ground, with my 22' ladder. This versatile ladder makes the jobs inside and outside the house easy to set up and use. (Posted on 7/4/11)
• Just Bought for home now looking to out fit our whole fleet with these Review by HVACR Contractor in NC
  

  Value

  I bought my LGL-Type 1 Alta One about two weeks ago. I bought this to keep around house for use on my home projects instead of having to bring home ladders from my office. I work for a HVAC/Electrical contractor and we are always carrying multiple step ladders, (4ft, 6ft, 8ft, 10ft, 12ft, 14ft, extension ladders of all sizes, A-Frame ladders, and the list goes on). So I brought my LGL-Type 1 Alta One to the office one day and we put it to the test and sent it out with one of our crews, needless to say its been two weeks and now my LGL-Type 1 Alta One is probably never coming home with me again. Our guys love this ladder, they tell me its great not to have to carry multiple ladders to do service work and installs and its freed up room on their trucks to carry more supplies and materials. So now my company and I will be outfitting over 30 trucks with the Fiberglass Type 1A ladders and SkyScrappers. When you add up the cost of traditional fiberglass ladders, 12ft ($200), 10ft($185), 8ft($150), 6ft($100) and 19ft extension ladder($300)=$935, buying one Fiberglass Type 1A - Model 22 ladder will save us $425.00 per truck which is roughly $13,000.00 for our whole fleet! Now that is a savings that is great! These ladders also meet all our insurance requirements and OSHA ANSI requirements for non-conductive ladders. Great Product and great way to reduce inventory of ladders and replacement cost of the traditional fiberglass ladders. (Posted on 3/10/11)
• Versatility galore Review by Ted
  

  Value

  I bought the Little Giant Type 1A 17 Ft to paint our very awkward high staircase in our home. A conventional extension ladder would never have worked properly. While on steps, I was able to securely position the Little Giant on a staircase. It worked perfectly. Thanks for making such a fine product! (Posted on 3/9/11)
• Just bought a second Review by Ruth
  

  Value

  I have had my Little Giant for a few years and love it. I bought a lighter weight version and am donating the first one to church. That way I won't have to carry mine down when I'm working there and I won't have to use the shaky old wooden one. (Posted on 3/2/11)
• Fits all my needs Review by Don Strain

  What did I do without the little giant! I've had mind for over 5 yrs and wouldn't part with it for anything. Bought one for my oldest son last year & looking to buy 1 this year for my second son. (Posted on 12/11/10)

• Great Product..... Review by Steve Inguanta
  

  Value

  My main concern was the strength of the hinge when the ladder was used in the extension mode. Since the stores I went too either did not carry your ladders or had no samples to open for testing. I was very concerned since I ordered this on the Internet and if I were unhappy, would have to pay for return shipping. I went completely by your demo videos and the one ladder I saw in a local store, which carried your product. Although it was wrapped so tight in plastic that I could hardly get a feel for it. I also saw a couple of other brands on the market, which were comparably price but looked too flimsy that I hesitated purchasing them. I anxiously waited for delivery and was pleasantly surprised. The ladder is made well, is very stable and my concern about the hinge is unnecessary since it seems very strong, not shaky and has no problem holding my weight. The customer reviews I read also helped! (Posted on 10/31/10)
• Excellent Product Review by Ms. Austin
  

  Value

  The ladder, regardless of how you stand it, is durable and safe. I am so impressed with the simplicity of using it. At first, I was scared that it would be too heavy or too complicated for me to handle on my own. The little giant, however, completely satisfies my indepedent nature and I really, really like using it. Most recently, I was painting my staircase walls and one area of the wall must be about 10 feet and the Little Giant was so secure. It was so easy. I am glad I bought the ladder. (Posted on 10/21/10)
• Little Giant Fan Review by Richard Rieske Ft. Smith, AR
  

  Value

  I have owned a model 22 since 1986 and use it on a weekly basis. This is the best ladder on the market. The only problem I have with it is getting it back from my neighbors. It is safe, always works properly, and adjusts to any environment. I would strongly suggest that you purchase leg leveling device and the orange work stand. (Posted on 10/13/10)

  Little Giant ladders are one of those rare products that you can use the heck out of, throw it around, bash it around, NEVER, EVER do you need to baby it, and it works perfect every time. I don't worry about this beast, I just pull it outta the truck and use the heck outta it. (Posted on 10/12/10)

• In 15 minute the ladder paid for itself! Review by Gary Martinez
  

  Value

  Seriously in 15 minutes the ladder paid for itself. After years of dealing with a 60 lb. ladder from another company, I did in 15 minutes what I have been putting off for 4 months. (Posted on 4/11/10)

• I LOVE IT, COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT IT!!! Review by Nick
  

  Value

  I have a window cleaning business, and I have a little giant ladder, and let me tell you I could not live without it. The ladder is always being used. My customers recognize it immediately from the commercials, and instantly start asking questions about it, and if I like it or not. I respond every single time with " I LOVE IT, COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT IT!!!!" The little giant ladder is a must have for anybody. I highly recommend it!!!! (Posted on 12/22/09)
• We just got a our first home Review by Chris
  

  Value

  We just got a our first home and we didn't want to purchase a bunch of ladders that we may or may not need, so we went with the Type 1. It's really easy to get to the ceiling (we have a cathedral ceiling in the front room and kitchen) to paint and to hang lights on the outside. It saves a lot of space since we don't have a big garage and no basment. (Posted on 12/22/09)
• Happy owner. Review by Christopher from Sunrise, FL United States
  

  Value

  I currently own a Type-II ladder since 1988 and was the best investment I ever made. I can't begin to say how many times I have used it for all of my chores around the house and side jobs. It will soon be up for grabs as I plan to purchase a new Type-1A ladder, Model 26 in the near future with accessories.
  Thank guys. (Posted on 12/22/09)
