you remember those cartoons where some animal start stacking crazy crap in the middle of a room to get really high in the air

huge washing machine on top of a tiny chair etc ....


that's what it reminds me of each time i see it LMAO


each time he uses the ladder it turns into a game of tetris

Heh. I'm within the load limit and the kid I sent up on it was about 160 when the rungs popped off. Single weld, no redundant failsafe. Horrible design. No more knockoff Little Giant ladders for me. It's not worth saving $200. I'd rather spend the extra money and keep everybody safe.

I haven't climbed a ladder in 20 years, (my teens). I've seen and heard of too many accidents to think I would ever find it necessary to climb a ladder ever again.
I'd rather pay 5 bucks to any dummy who'd be willing to take the risk.
Fortunately, I can reach anything I might need to other than my eaves.
Unless your trying to kill your Dad, don't buy him a ladder for Fathers Day.

Why do old guys, (me included), love getting on their roofs?
My Dad is 87 and still gets on the roof to clean the gutters. I am always telling him call me and I will come right over. My Mom will call in a panic telling me...Your Dad is getting ready to get on the roof again!
Two years ago he fell off the roof. He told me the initial fall didn't hurt so bad, but he said the bounce was very painful

yep

Amazon has the Little Giant Classic 22ft, 300lb limit for $219 today in the Gold Box

I'd think twice.

I have a little giant and don't mind it. That said, the thing is heavy. More often than not, I'd just as soon have a light little single-tasker.

If you only have space for a single ladder, I suppose it's not a bad ladder to have, but it really can be a sumbitch moving the thing around and positioning it.

FWIW, the ladder I linked about has a listed shipping weight from Amazon of 55 pounds. A Luoisville 22ft aluminum extension ladder with only a 225lb capacity weighs 40 pounds. A Werner fiberglas extension ladder with a 300lb rating is actually 59lbs.
They are heavier, but compared to the max capability, not unreasonably so.

I have the same one its great. It's not that heavy

My wife signed me up for a church event and the next one is Sunday Wtf? Not perfect. All I want to do is watch golf. I guess I'll play Saturday but what church schedules these things for Father's Day? What man wants to get dragged in there?

Awesome. Sent this link to my secretary. Told her to order two of them. Thanks for the link...

She didn't do it. Thought she could do it Thursday. She's cut off tonight.

I say you make her work it out in services rendered.
