Selecting the right ladder

Extension ladders require a surface, such as a wall or a roof line, for support. They’re usually available in larger sizes than step ladders, making them a good choice for outdoor projects, like cleaning gutters or painting the outside of a home. Be sure you know your average reach height when shopping for your ladder. Using a ladder that’s too short or tall can hamper the safety and efficiency of your work.

Ladders Buying Guide

Common ladder materials are Aluminum and Fiberglass. Aluminum ladders are corrosion-resistant, strong and lightweight, making them a durable choice that's easy to maneuver and carry. Aluminum ladders also conduct electricity, however, so don’t use them when working on electrical projects or near electrical lines. Fiberglass ladders are strong and durable. When clean and dry, they don’t conduct electricity and are the right choice for electrical projects and work near electrical lines.

Working at a significant height can be nerve-wracking, but the Little Giant® SumoStance® ladder eliminates those concerns and makes using an extension ladder easy. Designed for stability and its light weight, the SumoStance will easily become your new go-to ladder for every task. The SumoStance utilizes wide-flared leg levelers to increase the stability of your ladder. The wide legs nearly double the ladder’s width, giving your ladder added side-tip stability. Work on any terrain, adjusting the ladder’s legs as needed, so you can confidently tackle any project. Most extension ladders are heavy and difficult to carry, but the SumoStance uses lightweight, non-conductive fiberglass to help you reach the highest places with ease. Do you experience foot fatigue while standing on a ladder? If you find yourself constantly shifting your weight to rest your feet while at the top of the ladder, you are going to love the comfort that our wide ladder rungs provide. Little-known fact: having your ladder level off by just 1 inch at the bottom causes a 9-inch lean at the top of a 19-foot ladder. If safety is the goal, and it should be, the bubble levels on the SumoStance are a useful tool to ensure that your ladder is level before climbing.

Maximum reach height: 15 ft 11 in (assuming a 5 ft 6 in person with a 12 in vertical reach)
Non-conductive lightweight fiberglass extension ladder
Adjustable wide-flared leg levelers increase ladder stability
Patent-pending Hi-Viz green ladder improves ladder’s visibility
Double pulley makes adjusting ladder length easy
Bubble levels add precision to the leveling process
Side-to-side angle indicators help ensure a proper, safe setup every time
Complies with all OSHA, ANSI A14 strength and testing standards, rung/step spacing complies to OSHA and int’l standards
ANSI type IAA rated to hold 375 lbs on 16’, 20’, 24’, 28’, 32’ ladders

Sumostance Rock!

Would Recommend

It has the features that I always wanted. The side level bubble(75 degree) and the last step clicking audio. These features only available on the Special duty model #17224, 375-lb. load capacity. Not on the #18824. I called Little Giant to verified. It is very stable and I feel safe. The weight on this ladder it not too bad. The storage length is little over 12 feet. I brought from Lowe's because It was $549 at the time I ordered. Now I just went back on Lowe's website (11/27/24) it ...

Bent ladder

So I just picked up my ladder yesterday from the store and on my first use today I realized the ladder had a bit of a bend to it. It gently curves to the left especially in the upper telescoping section. I waited a long time to save up for this ladder and now I’m a little worried that this one is defective.

I Love Little Giant

Would Recommend

I am a Little Giant believer. I have the A-Frame ladders that are 6 and 4 feet compressed, and also an expandable aluminum platform. It is the only ladder on which I feel totally safe. So when it came time when I had to have a 28 foot extension ladder, after looking at my options, there was only one. I am very satisfied with this product. If there is any downside to this product, it is that it is somewhat heavy. But that is what you get with Little Giant - a ladder that is built for qualit...

This was the right tool for the job

Would Recommend

The was surprising easier to lift and maneuver around than my Werner MT-22 21 foot ladder. I just used it for the first time almost fully extended. I felt safe climbing all the way up to the 4th rung from the top. The SumoStance feature was worth extra money! The ladder NEVER felt like it would tip to the side. It also made leveling the ladder on my sloped yard easy.

Great Praise for SumoStance extension ladder

Would Recommend

What's your physical safety and life worth? Love this innovative extension ladder and strongly recommend it! It provides adjustable length left & right side rails that are independently lowered to compensate for uneven ground and an adjustable width stance for amazingly increased side-to-side stability. What's not to love? Great ladder! Well worth the moderate additional cost for those critical safety features.

How wide is the bottom with the outriggers fully extended? Also, in a narrow space, can the ladder be used without extending the outriggers to the side?

What is the step width?
