This is a lightweight yet sturdy ladder that is adjustable and locks in each extension.I keep mine in my RV and use it to clean solar panels and check other items on my roof.I put off buying one for a long while and now that I have one it's a must have item.Collapses easily, but do mind your fingers per instructions. Real Pinching possibility.Truly a 5* product after a few years of ownership and use.Richard

In my honest opinion, this is a great light duty ladder for around the house. I used it one time and as expected it was a bit flexible but that is because I'm 210 pounds. Otherwise I'm very pleased with this product!

I love my little ladder. Purchased it 10 year ago and still using it. Awesome product when considering reach, portability and storage capabilities. It is fairly lightweight while being sturdy enough to feel safe and solid. It easily fits in my trunk or behind the back seat and does not take much space in the garage. The steps are ribbed (aluminum) for better traction, and there is a padded handle under the bottom step for easy carry. There is also a wrap-around strap to keep the ladder shut while collapsed. The ladder is all aluminum, so rust shouldn’t be an issue. It measures 18.5” W x 27” H x 3.5” D while collapsed. There are rubber feet for better grip on the ground, but I wish the top yellow plastic caps were rubber as well to have a better grip on whatever it is leaning against. While the ladder is great and how it works is quite clever, you do have to be careful when folding it back. There are yellow thumb sliders below each step which are spring-loaded and reveal a green dot when the step above is extended. This signals a safe extend and locking of the step. To collapse the above step back into the ladder, the sliders have to be pushed towards each other (slide inwards) to cover the green dot which is when the top step/s slides down. If not careful, it may come crashing down on your fingers, so keep those fingers away or wrapped around the frame of the ladder. All of these extendable ladders work like that and like other ladders models you have to know how they function and be careful while folding. I can definitely recommend this ladder. Just know what you’re getting, meaning length and max weight load and how to use it. The ladder is super portable and quite handy, I would just like to see the top caps upgraded to rubber. I highly recommend this product.

Es un buen producto tengo aproximadamente 2 años que la uso entonces la durabilidad es buena su peso es un poco más pesado que una escalera normal de aluminio y es normal por el tipo de estructura retractil y es para agregarle más resistencia, la preste varias veces y el resultado es que les gusta mucho, y lo mejor es que la puedo transportar en la cajuela del auto

I was reluctant to purchase this product as it was more expensive compared to similar ladders but I am very pleasantly surprised at how light and a sturdy address. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

I have a couple of levels of flat roofs on my house and to get onto the top level to clean off debris and the eaves I wanted to avoid having to use multiple ladders to get up there from the ground level, which would necessitate trying to drag a second ladder up the first one (difficult at best, dangerous and stupid at worst). The Xtend & Climb was my solution - the very compact design when folded up made it a cinch to simply carry through the house and up the stairs inside and exit to the top of the first level roof through a window in one of the bedrooms and then extend this ladder while already on the roof to get up to the 2nd level roof.It is not extremely light but the weight is completely manageable because it's all compacted into a small space. The strap that holds the ladder collapsed has a nice padded area at the bottom that makes carrying it comfortable which I appreciated. It snaps open easily and markings on each rung give you a quick visual hint that lets you know that each rung has been completely locked open as you go so I wasn't left guessing if I was climbing it in an unsafe state. Once fully extended I found the feet of the ladder were stable and gripped fine to my roofing material and it didn't feel like it was going to slip out from underneath me at all.If I had to nitpick, it would be that the locks that hold the rungs extended are plastic and some kind of metal locking system would make me feel more secure and better about the long term longevity of the whole system, but in practice there is nothing about it that gives me any reason to believe that it won't last or is unsafe.It's not the cheapest ladder of this design but I felt like going for the big name and paying a few more dollars for the "original". Perhaps this is unfounded, but perhaps not. At any rate I'm completely satisfied with this ladder doing what I expected of it and I'm sure I'll find a lot of uses for it compared to dragging my large heavy extension or A-frames around to places that they are just a pain to get them to. The added bonus is that this will fit handily in the (very small) trunk of my sedan so if I need to take it anywhere to help a friend out or for any other reason this is the ONLY extension ladder I own that I am even capable of transporting myself.

Great ladder and easy to use! This 770p ladder is ANSI type II rated for 225 lb. weight capacity, and OSHA compliant for safety. Other similar ladders which are half the price claim 300lb capacity but do not back that up with an industry standard rating or quality compliance standard. That is also why this ladder is only rated at a conservative 225lbs but is much heavier duty than some cheaper versions rated higher. This ladder uses airplane grade aluminum. If you require 300lb rating or tougher version, look for Type IA or the pro version 780p. I also bought the top rung silicone cover and it fits perfect (TC811) and really helps protect walls from dents or scratches, as well as from slipping at the top.This ladder weighs 27lbs which is not light but you don’t want light when it comes to being that far in the air. Before purchasing, do yourself a favor and get something which weighs 30lbs and lift it before buying.If you have average coordination, this ladder is simple for one person to extend quickly and collapse with no issues. Some user comments indicate it takes two people or that the ladder is not safe. I disagree. I fully extend it by myself in less than a minute. Please treat this like any other extension ladder which puts you high in the air! You should be sure about properly extending/retracting (making sure both green dots are showing), making sure it is level, angled correctly, on sure footing, leaning against something which can secure the weight, abiding by manufacturer’s recommendations, etc. Also the instructions state that the unused rungs when not fully extended are kept at the TOP of the ladder.I found the ladder to be very stable and solid. Perhaps some people angle their ladder too flat against something but if you keep it at the proper angle there is hardly any difference in this ladder than a nonprofessional extension ladder. I had no problem (180lbs) going up and down this ladder fully extended with tools to reach the top of my RV, as well as general ladder needs around my home. It stores nicely under the bed of the RV when not in use. 32” closed height.The anodized finish is easy to clean. It has a soft pad underneath the lower section of the ladder for your hand so you can hold it under your arm for easy carrying.I’m sure this would work for any need but if more than just light duty home use, I recommend purchasing the pro models.I’d recommend using gloves if you must put your hand in-between rungs when collapsing (which shouldn’t happen) or instead put the ladder on the ground and collapse the rungs by hand. If you have a concern about how much force is on the release mechanisms when released, put something shock absorbing in-between the rung while retracting and pull it out after a rung is retracted. I use some old cardboard doubled over.I would not hesitate buying this ladder again.
