STURDIEST LADDER EVER!

By S. MARKS

I’ve had and used several ladders over the years. This is by far the best and sturdiest ladder I’ve ever used. I’m a big guy at 200+ pounds. This ladder is rock steady… Even when I tried to rock it, it wouldn’t budge! It’s well made, has some nice features like a conduit holder (for cutting) and a tool holder at the top! If you plan to use it for painting you’ll need to buy the Werner PK76-3 pail holder for a few dollars more, Werner PK76-3 Black Molded Universal Auto Closing Pail Shelf but that’s no big deal if you’re looking for a strong ladder that wll last a lifetime. Just think about the last time you were on a ladder… You felt it wiggle, move and make you feel insecure at times.. NOT THIS ONE! IT’S THE LAST ONE ONE YOU’LL EVER WANT! Spend a few dollars more… Get a ladder you’ll feel secure on. This one.

A step above

By Jay-Ski

This is a good solid ladder, well engineered and planned out. It’s obvious the people who designed this ladder actually worked in the field. It’s solid, doesn’t “walk” when set up properly, and is not heavy for a ladder of this rating.

Great ladder but …

By Craig Carver

Great ladder but the conduit cutting system is not available on 4′ model. The pictures show it but not the picture of the 4′ model, the Product Description seems like it’s for all models because it’s listed there. So it only gets 4 stars because it doesn’t have the conduit cutting system like I thought it would from reading the Product Description. Also the Hacksaw hook is only on the models with the conduit cutting system

AWESOME LADDDER

By CLH

I recently purchased the eight foot double sided step laddder and would seriously recommend it to any one looking for a heavy duty ladder! I am a residental contracter and use it every day. Its works great for two guys to work off of and also strong enough to use with an aluminum walk plank. The heavy duty spreaders and fiberglass rail sheilds make this ladder very sturdy even on soft ground. I have used many other ladders but this is by far the best one yet!!

WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG TO OWN ONE!?!?!

By Narley Charley

I have owned and worked on just about every ladder made, over many years, and I have to say, this has got to be one of the safest, most stable ladders on the market. It’s a tad bit heavy, but well worth the extra lugging.

It does take a little to get used to, like I find myself debating as to which side to climb down when standing straddled over the top, and it is wider when folded up, using up more room in the construction trailer, but I plan to buy more over the years. I bought a 6 footer and plan to buy another along with two 8 footers. Very stable and works great to span scaffolding planks to. I highly recommend one, especially to any contractor.

Very Stable & Strong Step Ladder

By Victor H. Agresti

Werner T7406 6′ Type 1AA 375-Pound Rated Fiberglass Twin Ladder

With me on one side (6/4, 270 lbs.) and my son on the other side (6/8, 300 lbs.), the T7406 is as stable as can be. Since it easily holds the two of us, perhaps the rating should say “375 lb. per side”. It doesn’t rock, creak, or feel not-up-to, the task. All twin-sided step-ladders will cost more than their single-sided counterparts. However, the flexibility of being able to use either side, or to safely support two people, is the major advantage of this ladder. While on the ladder, I frequently switch to the other side, for better positioning, without dismounting first. Also, having a fiberglass frame, it won’t transmit electricity. It’s high-quality and designed to last a very long time under heavy use. It’s comfortable to stand upon, as the treads are quite deep and heavily grooved to prevent slipping.

There are three “disadvantages”, which any heavy-duty twin-step-ladder would have.

1. It weighs much more than a single-sided ladder; e.g., it’s too heavy for my wife to lug around.

2. When folded, it’s quite a bit larger than a single-sided ladder, making it more awkward to carry inside a finished house (e.g., you could run into things). Also, that larger size could be an issue if storage space is really cramped.

3. You can’t lean the folded ladder against something and then [safely] climb it, as with a single-sided ladder. This is because the “feet” of the ladder half you would then climb on woudn’t be on the ground.

All in all, this is one terrific step-ladder, and is Werner’s highest rated model.

Lightweight and Easy to handle

By D. Reilly

I have high ceilings and was looking for a ladder that I could take from room to room easily that would also reach my light fixtures. This ladder was perfect for the task. It is lightweight, making it easy to manipulate. The top of the ladder has slots for tools, hardware, lightbulbs, etc. It also has a magnetized area for nails and screws.

Great item and good price

By TiffMomNYC

I bought this for indoor use at my new house (it’s an old house, but new for me) which has some very high ceilings. I’m pleased that I purchased the 8′ ladder (no stretching required as would have been the case with a 6′) and also that I didn’t go overboard and get a Class IA or IAA rated ladder. This one is plenty sturdy but it’s also light enough to move easily, carry upstairs, etc. Very good item.

Excellent tool!

By Jakester

There are a number of locations around my house where a 6′ ladder is just a little too small. This ladder is perfect for those locations. The construction is excellent and the fiberglass makes the base solid and it’s light enough to carry easily. My only complaint is the price. I don’t understand why an 8′ ladder is twice the price of a 6′ ladder of the same construction. Is that extra 2′ really increasing the cost of production that much? Somehow, I doubt it. Beyond the price though, this is a very handy tool to have around my house.
