Has anyone used either the telescoping or tri-fold ladders and what has been your experience? I'm just starting out and will have to use my car - need something compact.

Rarely use my Little Giant 26'. I almost exclusively use my Telesteps 1800W. 14.5 feet with the wide steps, 300 lb. version. Love it. Fits in the trunk of my Caddy.

I've been using an Xtend & Climb for about 5 years now, and it works just fine, especially in those hard to get into places, like a closet attic/ceiling opening.
I have the original model 770. Check out their newer 780P... I clean mine periodically with a microfiber cloth, with a little silicone spray, then a dry wipe down on each shaft, and its good to go, and it easily extends and retracts. Aside from my Little Giant 22' fiberglass, its probably one of the most useful inspection tools I have. |
