Default I want a Little Giant!!!!!!

This is a unique ladder. Its metal. Solid. Telescoping. Dang good neat designed ladder!

I almost never have a use for it. And its like $400! But I saw this little gadget and well... I want!!!


I like how it has steps on both sides. I like how one tiny 4 foot tall ladder can extend up to 17 feet!!! And its so compact when collapsed and folded. And its light enough to carry easily but heavy enough to be stable.

It also has nice well designed easy locking clamps, both on the hinge and along the telescoping extentions.

I like its stablilty. Its very firm. No wiggling. And the bases are flared out for extra stability.
And I want one!

Don't have a real use for it, especially at $400...But I want it!!!!

Don't anyone of you?

A contractor could justify the expense, cuz he'd use it everyday. Awful expensive for the average homeowner.

Kinda like the impact guns they use in NASCAR to take the lug nuts off with. A professional automotive technician (like me) can use one daily, a do-it-yourselfer really doesn't need to spend that kind of money on something he'd use once in a while.
