Leveler

I usually do not leave reviews but wanted to for this product-the M17 leveler. I'm a professional residential carpenter who does everything from framing to finish work and this is the only ladder I currently own. It's now about four years old and gets used all day every day. The ladder's components and construction are high quality and have held up to the usual jobsite abuse and chaos without any breakages. It probably has provided the highest return on investment of any tool I have ever purchased. The leveler system saves huge amounts of time setting up on uneven ground. The ladder in its various configurations can get me to 95 percent of the places I need to go on the jobsite and it takes up a fraction of the space of all the ladders it replaces. Being able to setup on stairs and other stepped surfaces is extremely valuable and is something that conventional ladders can't do. I purchased the scaffold brackets as well and use the two separated sections often as a support for a walk board when installing long pieces of siding/crown etc. Looking into buying one of the work platforms as well so the ladder can also be used as a portable tool stand for ground-level work. I will say that I think that the 17 is the best size as the 22 and 26 are a bit too large and heavy to move around efficiently. I'm happy that there are still companies manufacturing high quality equipment!

We used our Little Giant Leveler ladder to sand, stain, caulk (chink and check), and clear coat our log cabin home. We coudn't have done this job without the Leveler given the uneven and sloping ground. Thanks Little Giant Team! My son recently purchased one for his own home. Everyone should own a Little Giant with levelers!!! Easy, fast and safe to use.

I love this ladder!!! You can use it for so many things in door or outdoor. One review by Jesse S Fischer is saying it is impossible to get it all the way up to 26 ft with one person but that is NOT true. The ladder is not like other extension ladders as you either pull a rope or just push them out. You need to extend it out on the ground, put the base at the edge of the wall and starting at one end walk the ladder up and then move the base out until it is at the safe distance. I've done it plenty of times by myself.

The options that this ladder gives you seem like it has one for any reason you would need to use a ladder. If you are looking for just an extension ladder get an extension ladder but if you want several ladders get this one!!!

I do it all the time by myself. Set up fully extended 26 foot ladder with no help. Do u have much experience woking with ladders? You said its impossible to do by yourself. Next time try fully extending the ladder put the feet against the wall with ladder laying on ground. Now lift the end furthest from wall and as you walk towards the house lift the ladder rung by rung with feet pushed against the wall and youll find how easy it is to lift to an upright position. Then just kick the feet out 6 to 8 feet out from wall when its upright and there ya have it. Youl have just done what you call impossible. Take care good luck.
