Caller called in and complained the ladder broke and it wasn't fixed. Oh my goodness poor Rick. Handled it with grace and dignity.

Rick does do really well with handling unexpected situations. I can't imagine how the ladder broke - I have one and I think it would take a bomb to damage it!

Poor Rick. Seems like he's the one who always gets those calls.

Re: Little Giant Presentation

People were posting a few days ago about how hard this ladder is to handle, especially for one person.

Re: Little Giant Presentation

I have a similar version (not from Little Giant) and it is a BEAST to move.

I hate it and use my reliable tall aluminum ladder instead. If the LG is anything like the one I have, that guy must have super human strength to manipulate it.

I would like to see a smaller woman configure that bad boy and THEN I will reconsider one!

Re: Little Giant Presentation

I'm only 5'1 and 61 years old. I don't have any trouble using my little giant ladder. I've never used it as a straight up extension ladder, never had a need to, so can't speak to how it handles fully extended like that. I use it regularly though in a could of different positions to accommodate inside and outside chores. I especially appreciate how steady and secure it feels. I regularly carry large bags of dog food and cat litter that weigh more than the ladder, so perhaps that's why I don't have problems?
