 "Great Purchase!" 2009-10-02
By Tammy Wagnon (Crestline, Ca)
This is my 2nd Werner Ladder and they are quality! I bought this one because I have moved and needed a taller one to reach the cob webs! I looked all over the internet and this was such a great deal with the other companies charging so much for shipping.....I jumped on this one! Home Depot and Lowes did not carry this ladder in their stores and ordering through them...would have added a bunch in shipping costs! I am very happy!

 "More stable than Type 1A ladders" 2008-08-17

Werner 12-Foot 375-Pound Duty Rating Fiberglass Stepladder #7312



We have a room with a 14' cathedral ceiling, and needed a 12' stepladder to reach the ceiling's peak. I had experience with a Werner model 6312 type 1A (300 lb. rated) stepladder and found it to be wobbly. I weigh 270 lbs. The 7312 type 1AA (375 lb. rated), costs more, but is more stable. No 12' stepladder is going to be "rock-solid", as it would be so heavy, no one would buy it. The 7312 weighs 50 pounds, which makes it practical for an average sized adult to carry and set up. Once opened, when it needs moving, I get directly under it, grab a step on one side and a brace on the other side, and lift the whole thing to move around.



The 7312 is only 3 pounds more than Werner's 300 lb. rated 12' stepladders, so its stability is due to additional bracing, rather than heavier components. The 7312 also has a thick aluminum top cap rather that the plastic top that comes on the cheaper ladders. The top cap has various holes and indentations to hold tools and small parts while you're working. See customer images.



Fiberglass stepladders are the safe choice if you will EVER work around electricity, such as installing an electrical box or lamp.



Other than price, the big negative with any 12' stepladder is finding a place to store it. You wouldn't want to leave it outside where it would get dirty; and if it's in the rain, the steel spreader mechanism will eventually rust.



If you can afford the higher cost (over a type 1A ladder), the excellent stability of the 7312 type 1AA will make you soon forget how much you paid.

Very sturdy and useful ladder. A bit heavy, but still within the limits a woman can move and use alone.

When the bid came in at close to $1000 to stain the interior of my three season room, I decided that I could do it myself with the help of this ladder and the cost of materials. Glad I made this purchase. Found more than one use for it as I have nine foot ceilings on my first floor. One warning--you do have to carefully pre-plan on how you will move throughout the house so you don't damage anything. I am now thinking about purchasing the Werner six foot ladder to replace my current somewhat flimsy one. Once you experience how safe you feel on a sturdy ladder, it is difficult to use one less secure.

 "Solid, dependable" 2005-12-26
By M. J. Walters (Chicago, IL USA)
I confess I'm no lightweight, and the prospect of getting up on a flimsy household stepladder with a load of whatever in my arms was a little daunting. So when I went to look for a new one (The old one finally fell apart after years of heavy use, twisting sideways on an uneven floor as I reached up to hang a drapery rod, and then collapsing entirely.) I looked for the highest rated step-ladder I could find. And I found an amazingly sturdy, stable ladder in the Werner. I don't worry for a moment about standing on it, holding any sort of extra weight. I know that it will stay put and support me and whatever I'm holding.



Unfortunately it does have one drawback. The steps are so high that getting up to the second one without some sort of external support is very difficult. With two bad knees, it's just about impossible. Once you're up, no problem, but getting there is a major pain and I'm often reduced to using a kitchen chair as an intermediate step. I could wish there had been one extra step, or a grab bar at the top. But apart from this, I think the Werner is a superior product for the money.
