Not a retro. Every time I pick up the chair to move it the step falls out and you have to put it together when you get it to where you are using it. If the location isn't exact and you need to move it, you get to reassemble it again. The worthless retro step stool sits in the corner of the kitchen, and I go to the garage to get the beat up original chair of my grandma, to use (that's a great step stool).

 "Not reliable, all parts not available" 2009-05-15
By Michael S. Moreno (Lake Charles, LA)
I have the 15.5 ft, heavy duty model. This ladder started out great. Within 8-10 uses it did not open and close very well. The ladder would not lock properly without effort to make sure each pin was properly seated. My real problem came after about 20 uses when one of the locking mechanisms came apart. The leg will no longer lock at all. The company does not offer a replacement for this part (even though it is easily removed), therefore I am stuck with an almost new ladder that I can't use. I think it would make a good ladder for a homeowner who will not use it often and can be very careful with it. Even though I was extremely careful transporting it I believe that is how it was damaged. I think the locking mechanism was hit during transportation. The design of the thumb lever can be hit easily. The ladder is not designed well enough for medium duty use, only light use.

 "Great product though the door can be complicated" 2009-12-27
By Blake Harrison
I just finished installing a televator into a tight spot in our house and I really like it. Read the directions carefully and you'll likely find it an easy installation. It does feel a little rickety at first, but now that I have been up and down it a bunch of times I totally trust it. The hardest part is the door. I made a 30 by 34 opening for our attic and had to make a custom door. I decided to join some old 1 by 10 shiplap to make the door, which looks nice. But the directions for the door and the hardware that comes with it is set up for a thinner plywood than the shiplap. I just had to go slow and make a few adjustments. Even without that complication to the project, any custom door will take a few hours to complete, so leave yourself time, and unlike me, don't do it on a super cold day while all the heat in your house rushes up through the open attic hatch while you work on the door! Overall, it came out great and we now have access to plenty attic storage that we did not have before.

 "Choose the 10 ft model if joists bigger than 4-6", even with 8ft ceiling height" 2009-09-16
By G. Mills
As many of the reviews have stated, this is a great product that fills a need well.



One detail not covered in the product description relates to the choice of 8ft versus 10ft version where the attic joists are more than 4 to 6 inches high. I live in a custom home where the joists are 2x12 and found that the 8ft ladder was not tall enough despite having an 8ft ceiling height. If the ladder is mounted near the bottom of the joist the ladder cannot pivot out sufficently to allow easy climbing, that is, it ends up being almost vertical. Mounting the ladder higher up on the joist resulted in a ladder not quite long enough to reach the floor. Ray at Werner customer support stated that an additional collapsing step was simply not available. He suggested 3 solutions: 1. Exchange the ladder for the 10ft model; 2. Cut the joist down to a smaller size (which would result in a joist not properly designed to support the roof load; or 3. Build a wooden box to put under the ladder at the base (certainly not convenient for use or storage). Since we had already partially installed the ladder, returning it wasn't an option. The only difference between the 8ft and 10ft model is additional collapsing steps with side rail pieces, so I can't understand why someone couldn't just grab a step from the assembly bins and ship it out, especially since Ray stated that this situation had happened before. Obviously customer support had not bothered to address this issue or mention it to the people creating marketing information for this product. The solution we used was to use a couple of pieces of 3/8" x 3" x 20" aluminum to extend the legs of the ladder the additional 6 inches we needed. Using a table saw the aluminum stock was shaved down on both sides to create a ledge to stop the stock from sliding up into the ladder side rails beyond 14 inches, thus giving us our 6 inch extension. The side rail had holes that were used as a drilling guide to drill through the stock to allow securing with #10 bolts. This worked well. So, if you have joists deeper than 4 to 6 inches, consider getting the 10 foot ladder model even if your ceiling is only 8 feet high. And don't expect much help from Werner customer support.

 "Great Attic Ladder" 2009-06-04
By Charles Heger (Saratoga, CA)
I wanted a pull down type attic ladder that would disappear up into the attic. The conventional types would not work as I used a powered louver for the "hatch" that is part of a whole house fan system. I had been designing a real kludge when I discovered the Werner product. I didn't hesitate and ordered it immediately. It arrived promptly and I was very impressed with both the engineering and installation instructions. It was a breeze to install and required only 2 hours. The hardest part was some custom framing to accommodate the powered louver. It is quite sturdy and feels more secure than the wooden fold-in-half types. I had only one glitch. After about a week it jammed and would not completely pull down. I called the factory and they were VERY helpful and with their advice, it took me only 10 minutes to fix the problem. I had been doing some electrical work while standing on it and apparently I dropped some material into one of the openings of the sliding structure. I highly recommend this product.

 "Easy to go on & Easy to fall off too!" 2009-12-28
By M. Afshar (COLUMBIA, MD USA)
I bought this product several years ago from Sears and was using it on a 32-ft 2-piece fiberglass ladder that I had also installed the Werner leveler to it. As I was struggling with the monster that I had created, the Quick Click Stabilizer fell off from high up on me and deeply cut my arm. I still have the scar after maybe 4 or 5 years. I am lucky that it did not hit me in the head. Again the idea is good but don't over do it like I did. Use it on shorter ladders that you can handle easily and be careful, wear hard hat.

 "Great accessory but not to be used on roofs" 2009-11-07
By John P. Gomez
I received the product and had it installed on my ladder in minutes. The quickclick is a wonderful design and the construction is light and sturdy. The amazon write-up mentioned that the ladder could be placed on the roof itself. Well, this did not work for me. The attachment goes on the top two rungs of the ladder and the supports are basically perpendicular to the ladder. This is great for a wall but not too good for roofs. I have a steep roof (5/12) but still I couldn't get the angle to land the rubber supports on the roof. The gutter kept getting on the way. The problem was exacerbated by the fact that the attachment has a bulky and sharp support on the second rung which can easily damage your gutter if you are not careful. Good product but I wish the attachment could be angled to be placed on the roof.

I was originally skeptical about buying something that seemed to add on to what a ladder already does, which is lean against a building.



But this gadget really stabilizes the ladder, and when you're 25 feet up, it makes it a lot less uncomfortable. It goes on and off quickly, and is wide enough to fit around most windows. I can't find any negatives with this tool.

 "All ladders should be equiped with this type of accessory" 2009-11-16
By T. Ewell
Most ladder use around these parts is on uneven surface. These levelers are just the ticket for quick stabilization and safety.



The ball joint feet conform to irregularties and the action of the leveler is easy anywhere within the range of the rod.

The only caveat would be the performance of the units after exposure to weather and potential rusting, which I've not experienced so far.



Installation was easy, clamp the unit to the ladder and use the mounting holes as a template for boring and bolt install.

Would be nice if hardware (nuts and bolts) were packaged a little more securely for shipment, my order did have all needed parts but many were scattered about within the box.

 "Louisville Ladder Leveler" 2009-10-07
By W. E. Kinslow (Tennessee)
Mounting the levelers to your ladder is a little work, but most anyone could do it; all you need is an electric drill & a few small wrenches.



It makes using a ladder on uneven ground much safer, and much faster. Start with both levelers in the up position, set your ladder up where you want it, and then reach down (or use you foot) to push the leveler down on the side of the ladder with the foot off the ground...your done. The latch on the levelers only prevent the feet from moving up, they can be pushed down very easily without using the latch. Also, the latch that holds the foot in the extended position is shielded on four sides so it is almost impossible to accidently release it.



They are well made, sturdy, and easy to use; my only regret is that I didn't give up my 2x4 and C-clamp fix for uneven ground sooner and buy these levelers.

 "Incredibly stable" 2009-09-11
By Joseph
After years of putting pieces of 2X4 or other wood scraps under my extension ladder to try and stabilize it, this product was the answer I had been looking for. The jointed feet are part of the real benefit since the ground can be any shape and angle and the jointed feet adjust to a stable position - not the case with other stabilizers that can move only in one plane. Seemed a little expensive at first, but this product really works great. Money well spent. Shipping packaage a bit flimsy so check for all parts if the box is torn etc.
