Summary: Excellent ladder at a reasonable price
Date: 2009-07-01 - 
Comment: This is the best made, most sturdy ladder we have ever owned. This is our second purchase of a Little Giant. We originally purchased the 17' ladder because we have a regular aluminum extension ladder and didn't want to spend too much money. My husband actually didn't want to order it because of the price. I ordered it anyway because I did not feel comfortable with him climbing our extension ladder while I was at the bottom bracing it to keep it steady. After using the Little Giant ladder and experiencing the heavy duty quality and stability of it, we purchased the longer Little Giant and are going to get rid of our flimsy extension ladder. Excellent product and worth the investment.

Summary: Very solid but weight is a big minus
Date: 2009-03-22 - 
Comment: A super-solid ladder in stepladder mode: it's like standing on stairs, and that's great for such things as pressure washing the second story of a house. This will get your feet up 6-8' or so and rock solid.
That said, this weighs a LOT, and it isn't easy to fit into tight spaces. Also, I need full-extension mode to reach my second-story roofline. My dog's fetch ball got up there two days ago, and I'm not looking forward to setting this unit up for that two-second task. Unlike a telescoping extension ladder, which you can just point upward and pull a rope to extend, this ladder needs to be fully extended on the ground and then swung into place (anyone eager to swing 22' of aluminum around from one end?) In principle, you could do the final extension with the ladder in vertical position, but that could crush your fingers if you let anything slip. Right now, I'm thinking I'll sell the ladder and use separate extension and step ladders.
I have not tried a smaller Little Giant, and maybe with the size and weight issues lessened, that would be all roses. So this review is only for the 22' type 1A.
Summary: Good multi-use ladder.

Comment: I bought this after buying a 2 story house with a loft. I needed a large a-frame ladder, a ladder for stairs, and a ladder for odd positions trying to reach high spots near the vaulted ceiling (I now know why the previous owners never painted up those walls). I was going to purchase a few regular ladders, and all together would have been around $600. I decided to invest in this, and I am glad I did. I works everwhere I needed other ladders at less than what I would have paid for all of them together. And, I'm sure you've guessed by reading the other reviews, it IS heavy. The pre-attached wheels help moving around however.

Summary: Pricey, but a great step ladder
Date: 2009-01-28 -
Comment: This is a great step ladder. It isn't 5-star because it's heavy, is rather pricey, and as a 17' ladder is inferior to any extension ladder. But for a step ladder I don't think you can do better. It's extremely strong, is inherently very stable, and can be used in places no other step ladder will do (e.g., on steps, and with the optional leg extender, uneven spots). The fact it does not employ an "A" brace means it can be put across stuff conventional step ladders can't. In my case I have to deal with a screen enclosure surrounded by a shrubbery privacy hedge. I can put this ladder over the bushes with one side extended longer than the other to get right up against the enclosure for repairs or debris removal. I've used it similarly for painting a stairwell or other situations where I really needed to get close to a wall or to a bush for pruning. The "walking wheels" on my model are useful for moving it in and out of my garage, but are useless other than on a smooth surface. I have the optional scaffold walkway and the leg extender and have used both, which has been quite useful, but what the ladder has really been good for is getting up close to what I want to work on.
Summary: Versatile, durable, but very heavy
Date: 2009-01-24 -
Comment: I've had the Little Giant Ladder for almost five years now. My ladder does not have glide wheels, but I have the work platform and the plank. It is very versatile. I've used it in all variations to do painting, gutter work, climbing on the roof, etc. It works as a step ladder and an extension ladder without wobbling. The downside is that it is heavy and when fully extended to 22 feet as an extension ladder it is difficult to handle by yourself.
