            Do you have to stoop way over to hold the top handle while standing on the top step?

            2 Answers | 
            Answer This Question

            I do not- the top platform step is 29 inches from the floor- the top handle bar is 24" above that step, which brings it to mid-thigh on me when standing on the platform- quite comfortable for me to reach.

                      Seeking a sturdy lightweight ladder for a senior. This seems ideal with the exception that the bottom 2 steps seem very narrow for secure footing compared to other ladders. Any reviews on the security and stability for footing of these narrow steps compared to a thicker step ladder? Thank you.

                      My wife and I are both 72 and we do not see the steps as a problem. It is a light weight ladder; easy for my wife to move around. I would definitely recommend it.

                      I'm 70, overweight and short. Works fine for me. The hand rails are everything. Most important thing to remember is to set it on FLAT floor/ground.

                          I am definitely a senior at 77 and I use the ladder a lot. In fact I have two, one upstairs and one down stairs. I don't have good balance, but I find it very comfortable standing on the steps or the large platform. Just my $0.02 worth.

                                I have oly used it ONCE, and it's broken
                                I have just used it ONCE. I opened it and climbed up to put a box over a cupboard. Left it open and when I look at it again the handle is broken! And I have not even banged it, it seems the sides were too narrow and they simply snapped that part which is a flimsy piece of plastic. Disgusting and absolutely disappointing. I don't even know if it arrived broken but this is absolutely unacceptable. And I weigh 80kg. Now I have to return this useless bulky thing

                                  I already owned 3 of Gorilla's Easy Reach 2-step stools for 3 yrs & I love them--SO light weight & sturdy. But my master closet has very high shelves, & I needed 1 more step to help me reach these shelves. This 3-step stool is just what I needed--It's really sturdy & just the right height--& so lightweight! And the project tray is just a convenient bonus. I love this stool!

                                  Sturdy and VERY lightweight
                                  This step stool is a "type 2" rated step stool. From what I understand, "type 2" is a rating that indicates it can hold up to 225 pounds. I don't know if there is any other meaning to the rating. I found that this step stool is incredibly light weight and sturdy. It has three steps which makes it useful for many household chores. My home has eight foot ceilings so I could use this for pretty much every chore around my house without having to take out a bigger ladder. The step stool also has a tray to rest tools and other items. My main comment/praise about this step stool is how light weight it is. Almost anyone could carry this around without any difficulty. I don't have any criticisms of this step stool and I would definitely recommend it.

                                  My most useful ladder so far.
                                  What I like best about this lightweight ladder is the tool platform on top. I have used that to put my Ridgid Impact Driver and Ridgid Drill/Driver on while I work. It also holds a tape measure and heavy duty stapler. It is easy to move around. I do wish, like many other ladders, the bottom steps were large like the top step. That top step is large and makes it very easy to stand on to work for an extended period of time. Saves me having to put two ladders together and building a scaffold out of scrap lumber for a stable work area. I really, again, must say how much I like that tool platform at the top - saves me from climbing up and down the ladder just to exchange tools.

                                  Great Ladder!
                                  This is a really great fold-up, storable ladder that is super useful! I've used similar ladders for painting, changing light bulbs, etc - so many uses! This one is super light, really well designed and very easy to store away in a hall closet or anywhere you might need a ladder. Finish is nice with the brushed aluminum and black plastic finish. Highly recommend!

                                  It is lightweight. That was the most important feature for us. We bought it to have a second one on main level as we have the same one, we thought, in basement. The only difference is the latch to secure the ladder when open. It is not as user friendly as our other Rubbermaid step stool. We have had the other one for many years so, apparently they have changed the design. You really have to struggle to close it The previous design was better.
