I received product from Little Giant Ladders for this review.
Since we had some house remodeling projects coming up, when I was asked to review this versatile ladder system from Little Giant Ladder Systems, I said, ok, why not? Although I thought it would be strange for an old lady to talk about ladders, once it arrived, I saw that it could be very useful.
The Velocity Type 1A Model 17 from Little Giant has these features:
Aluminum construction for 20% less weight than competing ladders.
Rock Locks: Convenient Rock Lock™ push button adjustment.
Tip & Glide Wheels makes it easy to move around.
OSHA Rated to hold up to 300 lbs.
Dual pin hinge for increased stability and convenience
Your purchase includes a full Lifetime Warranty.
Fabgrandpa and I video-ed setting it up as an adjustable step ladder from the locked storage position. After he had the ladder set up, I was able to close it up and move it by myself because it has wheels on it. If I can do that, just about anyone can. Although this ladder weighs 35 pounds, I did not have to lift it or exert much effort to roll it over to lean it on the wall for storage.
You can purchase the Little Giant Ladders at LittleGiant.com, Amazon.com
and at HomeDepot.com.
We have one of these ladders and love it. You can do so much with them. I love how versatile they are. Even the handy man who works in our condo complex comes looking for our ladder from time to time because he needs it for a job he’s working on.
Mike and I need one of these. We always borrow the neighbors ladder to put Christmas lights up… well they moved LOL
I love the fact that it has wheels! I need to talk my hubby into getting one!
My Dad has been telling me I need a good ladder ever since we bought our house ten years ago. This one would probably make him happy!
This is the type of ladder my husband needs. Maybe then he would take on some more handyman jobs that I would like him to do! LOL
This would really come in handy for us right now. We are rescreening the back porch.
