light yet strong; well put together (mostly)
Would RecommendThe weight makes it easy for one person to handle this ladder. Plus, it's a Werner, which in my experience means good quality. My Werner stabilizer fits perfectly. Only negative: The ladder legs are I-beams. The edges of the "I" are not folded over to provide some cover for the sides of the legs (like they do on my older Werner 28").

BEWARE!! Extension ladder
BEWARE! My husband recently fell off this ladder due to the structural integrity of the ladder. He had it extended about 14 ft and it bent in the middle and the foot. He fell on a rock on his back. It is about 20 years old but maybe there needs to be a warning if this happens when it gets older??
