  • Young children may find it difficult to deploy.
The media could not be loaded. It appears to be sturdy enough but my 7 and 10 year old grandkids had a very difficult time deploying this. The video I posted was their third fire drill and you can see what happened.

  • High-Quality, Solid Construction, Must Have
This escape ladder has a nice emergency release strap which also doubles as a "tie" to hold all the rungs in place while storing so it can be quickly and easily moved and put into the window in an emergency. Haven't had to use mine yet, but it feels very solid and is of a high quality construction, but isn't too heavy. I checked it out thoroughly and simulated using it so I would know how if the time came. Just having this in my second story rooms makes me feel safer. This is the third one I have purchased so each room has one, compact box fits under the bed in one room and behind a chair by the window in the other room. If you have a 2-story place, make sure to have at least one of these upstairs in case you ever need it. TIP: If Fire, close bedroom door before opening your window so the influx of oxygen doesn't pull fire into the room. ... show more

  • It is reusable
Great price and it's reusable. Read the description on your ladder before purchasing. Many are only a one time use but you can't practice with them. The practice is very important for children. They will do what they are taught. It must be drilled into them or they will panic during a fire. Give them the confidence to do what's necessary when/if disaster strikes. ... show more

  • TEACHING OUR CHILDREN TO BE PREPARED HAS BEEN PRICELESS AND THEY LOVE HAVING FIRE DRILLS :-)
Our home is 3 stories with the bottom floor set half underground, we have 10 feet high ceilings, and the bedrooms are on the third floor. We have 10 feet ceilings plus the 5 feet underground which makes it 25 feet from the bedroom windows to the ground. This ladder was an easy purchase for my husband and I. We have one in each of our bedrooms. As a family we have had MANY fire drills where we have had each of the children practice putting the ladder on the window and climbing down. Our neighbors are used to it..in fact after watching us do the fire drill several times our neighbors bought ladders too. In regards to ages. Our youngest was 4 years old the first time we practiced the fire drill (I should note the first few times my husband assisted each of the children and for the younger ones I was in the bedroom and he was on the ground on a ladder to help guide them). This ladder has taught our children to not fear because we are prepared, worth every dime! The ladder is strong.. the heaviest person we have had on it was 250 pounds. Just few notes about the product.. we store it next to the bed/under the bed near the window.. if you look at the blue strap in the picture it velcro's and create a handle to carry the ladder - it's very light. ... show more

  • Tested and staged for an emergency.
Got this for my daughters house to ensure that her and her roommate would be able to get out safely. Had them test it to ensure that it would reach a reasonable distance that they would feel comfortable with. We tested this to ensure that there was enough window sill to hold it and not need a larger "hook" for the current window. Every thing checked out well and they are comfortable using it, placing it out the window and making that transition out the window and onto the ladder. This has given me one less thing to worry about! Not sure about the max weight that this thing would actually hold. ... show more

  • Dangerous and assembled incorrectly
Dangerous! Put together backwards. It took me a little time to unpack this ladder and test it out. It is probably manageable for my 14 year old daughter's to attach to her window, however, the ladder is attached backwards to the window hooks making it impossible to use. The legs that should go against the house would sticking out in the air in a real emergency. I agree with other reviews that if put together properly, this ladder would be difficult for young children. ... show more

  • Very happy with the First Alert 2-story fire escape ladder
Very happy with the First Alert 2-story fire escape ladder. I just got done testing it with my son (from the ground climbing up) and overall I'm impressed. It doesn't have the stability of a real ladder, and does twist and move as you climb, however, this is to be expected. This is yet another reason why we practice fire safety so we can be aware of these things, and not panic should the time come to use it. I'm 180# and I felt safe and secure using it. I actually climbed all the way up to my window, and besides being a bit scared of the height, I didn't feel unsafe. Highly recommended for piece of mind and safety! ... show more
