Customer Reviews for Gorilla Ladders 4.5 ft. Aluminum Dual Platform Ladder with Tray (9 ft. Reach), 250 lb. Load Capacity Type I Duty Rating

I absolutely love this ladder! Very good quality build. Very sturdy, very well thought out design. Perfect step height for an average 6 foot tall guy for 8 foot ceilings 8 1/2 foot ceilings and 9 foot ceilings. When you stand on the steps, you’re not too high and you’re not too low. I really like the top flip out storage area. Highly recommend this ladder to anybody looking for a good step ladder.

Great ladder very sturdy for aluminum wallboard

Light, Sturdy, Durable. The flip top is a great added feature.

I love this ladder. I needed it for cutting in while painting bedrooms in my house and it is perfect. It’s lightweight and easy to move/maneuver. There’s enough space on the step to stand comfortably and it doesn’t hurt your feet. 10/10 recommend. I even went as far to say it’s one of the best purchases I’ve made in the last 5 years.

I'm a 70 year old DIYer who is not as steady on my feet as I used to be. I have some ceilings and light fixtures I need to work on, and a screen to replace that is high up. My step stool was no longer safe for me to use. I bought this today and absolutely love it. It is light, compact with WIDE steps. The tray that opens up at the top is very convenient and I can get my DIY jobs done without worrying about falling. And the price is good!

I love this ladder. I had an old style wooden ladder and fell when coming down off my kitchen ladder, changing over cabinet light bulbs. Lost confidence. I got new light-weight gorilla ladder and the top step is almost even with counter top. Confidence restored.. along with light in kitchen. The ladder has a folded profile of 4” so it easily fits into my small utility closet at my condo. So glad I bought this ladder...

Very sturdy and stable step ladder. I weight 230 and it didn't wobble a bit. The second step's height of 22 3/4 inches is perfect for cutting paint in at the top of an 8 foot wall (see photo). The third step's height of 34 inches is perfect for cutting paint in at the top of a 9 foot wall. This combination of price and performance make this ladder an excellent value.

It is convenient to use in most places, however, it is a bit heavier than I expected

I like this ladder because it’s convenient and lightweight. I’m a drywall Finisher and this ladder is ideal for patchwork. Easily carry it around with one hand. It’s tough and durable as well.

This is a great product! Light weight and easy stow. This three step ladder is super convenient. When folded, it can virtually fit in any closet or behind a door thanks to it's slim design. The fliptop tray has slots to hold tools and a bordered section, which can hold up to a one gallon paint can.

I love this ladder. It’s so versatile and easy to use. It’s extremely light and can move room to room with ease as it opens and closes easily. Very satisfied overall with both the product and the customer service. I cannot say enough about the kind and helpful staff at the Seekonk MA location.

Not only am I getting more done with this ladder, but I'm getting more done safely and with less neck and shoulder pain since I no longer need to reach so high above my head. This Gorilla ladder is nice and sturdy, yet lightweight enough that I can easily move it around. I've been using it now for a couple of months and especially like that it folds up for easy storage. The bonus extra tray feature is nice and I use it far more often than expected. Although it's small it is designed nicely. It has little shallow pockets for screws and other items. I highly recommend this ladder to anyone who has been using a chair for reaching high spots or who suffers from neck and shoulder pain. The price point is low enough so that you can move to a much safer tool than a chair while eliminating the need for Excedrin and a heating pad after up high projects. Note that my photos include other Home Depot products, including a Black & Decker cordless drill, Rustoleum white satin spray paint and a Hunter ceiling fan. And for wiener dog lovers there's a bag in the background featuring a design from TheSmootheStore.com

I have a hand full of Gorilla products now and this Hybrid Ladder with Tray is just one more example of the fine line they have. We can start with it's lightweight construction making it easy to get around and set-up. It has wide steps like a step stool and the height of a small ladder, for me, 9 foot reach. There is a flip top to make a tray for a paint can, tools or just general a place to put your stuff you are using. One NOTE here, don't grab the tray it does not lock in-place, as a pull-up or balance point, as you are climbing up or down, it will flip up easy when open, so close it first and it may be to only thing I found that is need of a word of caution. As said, it open and closes so easy and at only 4 inches when closed it will fit behind any door or just about anyplace, easily. 250 lb. Type I ANSI rating and a Lifetime limited warranty.

I had the opportunity to evaluate this ladder. It is Gorilla brand and very well made and sturdy. Key features are the height(4.5 feet) and the very large and stable non marring feet the flip tray to hold your whatnots and tools. The best feature is the very wide steps which make stability and safety easier than the standard ladder. Easy to open and close and takes up little storage space at about 4 inches wide when folded. The weight rating is good for us not so skinny homeowners. Feels solid.

I’m impressed. The features of this ladder sure seem to meet virtually all of any DIYer’s home needs. It’s very lightweight--the shipping weight was just 15.3 pounds. The top tray is very handy for holding nuts and bolts and such and it folds open to hold tools. It’s very sturdy. The easy fold open/close can be done with one hand. The top step is 10-inches deep so you can stand and move positions stably and comfortably. The fact that it’s Type 1 graded makes it that much better. I can easily see this as my ‘go-to’ ladder all around my house.

It is lightweight for my 94 yr old father and steady for him to change a lightbulb or reach up on a shelf to grab something.

Great ladder! Perfect height for home remodeling. Lightweight. Sturdy.

Very well constructed, light weight and strong. Bought two of them as Christmas gifts as we already have one for a few years.

II bought it for my wife and she loved it, she asked me to buy a stepladder sturdy enough and without a high price tag. This is it.

This is taller than I was looking for but that was a good thing really works well and easy to use.

Sturdy and thin enough to fit anywhere for storage. Too expensive! $80 for a ladder
