COSCO 18ft Reach Height Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder ,300 lb. Load Capacity Type IA Duty Rating

I received this item at a discounted price during a promotion. In addition I was offered a small credit to write this review. I have had this item for several weeks. I have mainly used it to clean gutters that are difficult to approach using a painter's ladder or shorter A frame styles. I have not used this item at full extension (leaning). The reach takes me comfortable to a working height of ten feet (note I am about six feet tall), and I could take another step to sit over it in the A frame configuration for additional height. The top steps form a useful shelf that can prop a 5 gallon bucket easily. The seizure of the rotating steel disc portion at the join of the legs of the appears to be well within tolerance. it is sturdy once emplaced and feels safe to approach and work from. (Or at least as safe as working from height ever is.) It is no more difficult to slide the leg components up and down than other similar ladders. The only feature missing from other multistage ladders I have used is that this does not have adjustable feet, so you will need to ensure a stable surface that is level at the point of contact. I can easily recommend this ladder for most DIY use, although I do not know how it would handle sustained loads under commercial or industrial use.

I got this ladder for $100 with a $10 cashback portal - for $90 it was a steal. solid option. not commercial grade but when you need stuff done on occasion around the house it is flexible enough to fit almost every need.
