    • Stable and versatile for personal use
Size: 13 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
I purchased the 13' ladder. I bought it only for personal use around the house/outside, and I have owned it for a couple of weeks. As an average/slightly short woman, the ladder is slightly heavier than I'd like but not unwieldy and actually far lighter than it looks. It is very easy to adjust between all the lengths/shapes. It also comes with a small instruction booklet detailing all of the positions and how to achieve them. It is good on stairs and very stable. Once locked into a position it is truly 'locked' and does not wobble or slide on the ground. My only complaint is that I wish the rungs/steps were slightly wider. When I use the 90degree angle to paint near the ceiling (so much better than trying to twist or reach on a standard ladder) I have to get creative in where to put the paint bucket. But I'll take the lighter weight as a good compromise. Overall, I think this is a very nice quality ladder. It is expensive, but as homeowner I am always in need of a ladder at short notice. Between the versatility and material quality, I suspect it will pay for itself over many years of use. Besides, it's hard to put a price on piece-of-mind when many of the cheaper ladders out there are so unsteady. So far it has been used to paint, change ceiling lights and fans, clean gutters, and trim trees. *For clarification, the ladder length is measured fully extended; it is not the height while in "A" frame (which is just over 6'.) Also, the 13' version does not have wheels as described in the video. Those are only on the larger ladders. Edit 6/30/15: I just received an email from Amazon's customer service. There is a replacement wheel accessory kit for Little Giant ladders. Because the description page was misleading, I was issued a credit to order the kit. I did not contact customer service about this, as I feel that it is small enough not to need wheels. Yet another reason I love Amazon! ... show more

    • Wow!!!
Size: 17 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
Not all Ladders were created equal, who knew? After hearing great things about this company and really needing a Good, Solid Ladder, I did my research and went with the Little Giant 17 foot Velocity and I am completely shocked by what a difference a good solid ladder makes plus, blown away by the quality, versatility and even the accessories offered. There are even video tutorials on YouTube from the company as well as videos from many other Happy Customers too. I feel so much safer since I purchased this ladder as it makes jobs I used to fear, like cleaning out my gutters, so much easier now compared to my older ladder and the way it would shake, even start to give slightly when I got higher up, that’s what was causing my fears and rightfully so. This Ladder offers different ways to use it and I no longer fear cleaning my gutters (I didn’t say I like cleaning gutters, just that this ladder is planted so solidly and stays securely in place that my fear is gone, total game changer). You get what you pay for and while these ladders are a bit higher than the cheap ones, the others are just that “cheap ones”. It’s hard to talk about ladders, I mean it’s a ladder right? That’s what I used to think but, not anymore so, I recommend you check out a few of the ladder reviews on YouTube, not from any of the Companies but, the “Handyman Types” with their comparisons and then see what you think. I also recommend you watch the “Little Giant” videos as they have several types of ladders to choose from. I thought buying a ladder was as simple as going to Home Depot or similar and looking for the height you need and pick between metal or wood but, I was very very wrong. A Ladder is something you should buy only once as it should last a lifetime and cover all your needs and future needs too. Do your research, buy a Quality Ladder, it might cost you a bit more but, buy once and it should be the last ladder you buy, at least that’s my feeling now since this purchase. It sounds a bit ridiculous as we are talking about a Ladder yet, I was and still am extremely happy with the purchase of my Little Giant Velocity 17 foot ladder and I still smile every time I take it out and use it (sounds crazy right? Still true and I’m not a crazy person, I think I’m not, I hope…, lol). I highly recommend this Ladder and this Company and couldn’t be happier with my purchase as well as the Little Giant accessories I bought for it. 2 Thumbs Up 👍 👍 ... show more

    • Fantastic Ladder!
Size: 26 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
Just wanted to say we are very pleased with the 26' Little Giant. Hubby & I have been considering purchasing one for years and with the heavy rain and gutters that needed cleaning we decided to give it a try when a little plant decided it had found a good home. : ) The ladder's learning curve was about 10 minutes - the instructions are very easy to follow...even for a girly girl and the rungs have a great secure-sounding clank when they're properly locked into place. 5 Stars - the top priority for a ladder in my view is to feel secure when using it & I didn't have any worries or fear. It's solid. The only "down" sides are that singularly the rungs are a little thin (I have size 7 feet). When doubled they're fine. Given the construction it totally makes sense why they're thin and I wouldn't change a thing - just be prepared for it. As others have mentioned, the ladder is quite heavy - 50lbs doesn't sound too bad until you consider it's a large object but just fold it up and drag it along via the wheels and relocating it is a breeze. Overall, we're very please with the investment and in an afternoon addressed a number of home maintenance tasks that we'd put on hold for a quite a while. Thanks to the company for creating something so ideal for the common homeowner. :) ... show more

    • Versatile ladder with great customer service!
Size: 26 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
I've used my 26' ladder in several configurations and love it. It's extremely sturdy and durable in any configuration, and can be safely handled by one person (although for some jobs, 2 is a good idea). It's been great to have for indoor and outdoor work around the house. I've had to contact Little Giant customer service for an issue and their response was polite, quick, and they immediately worked to resolve my ladder's issue under warranty. It didn't cost me a thing. My particular ladder had a defect in one of the two latching mechanisms, which meant that when the ladder was extended one of the latches would give way even with minimal weight on it. The second latching mechanism would keep the extension in place enough that I didn't fall, but the ladder didn't feel secure to stand on. I contacted customer service, which is available online and by phone, and submitted a claim. They asked for my contact information and then sent me a message asking for any details about the issue. They had the option to email or text pictures/video of the problem, which made explaining the problem really simple. I wish all companies had such modern ways to make warranty claims! I was able to communicate directly with the engineer assigned to my case and, after they reviewed my video of the problem, they approved a new ladder extension to be sent out to me at their own expense. I really couldn't be happier with their customer service or their product. ... show more

    • The ladder is great in A-frame mode
Size: 26 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
I've had this ladder for approx 1 mo. and used it mainly in A-frame mode. Pros: The ladder is great in A-frame mode. Adjustments in this mode are simple and quick with the rock locks. In this mode it's extremely stable and feels very solid and safe. The quality of the construction seems better than that of the other multi-function ladders i looked at. It has welded rather than riveted rungs and the welds (under the red plastic covers at each end of the rungs) seem to be of high quality. It is especially good at getting close to walls or trees in 90 degree mode. I have used it on stairs and found it to be very easy to work with on them. Cons: Its weight could be difficult to manage, especially for a smaller person. I have used it in extension mode only once and found it to be somewhat difficult to raise into position, due to its weight and length, even though I am fairly tall. If working in limited space, a standard extension ladder would be a better choice. Packaging: The packaging was a simple corrugated box and was inadequate for shipping an item of this weight and size. The hand holds (simplly holes in the box) were torn and the box was crushed and torn in several places when delivered. Fortunately the ladder survived with only minor scratches. Other: The description states that the hinge locks have 2 pins, but in fact they have 4 as shown in the photos. I would definitely recommend it for A-frame applications. I subtracted 1 star due to the difficulty of use in extension mode. ... show more

    • Very well made and easy to load in the average SUV
Size: 13 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
Review Image by Steve Ullrich
Review Image by Steve Ullrich
I wanted something that I could load into the back of the SUV to take with me to the lake. When my sailboat is on the hard for the winter the toe rails are well over eight feet above the ground. Even the swim ladder is unreachable without a step ladder when it is in it's stowed position up against the stern. The lowest rung is still four feet off the ground when deployed. Getting on and off the boat can be a challenge, not to mention being able to reach the entire hull for cleaning and waxing. I borrowed a six foot step ladder from someone else in the marina and found it to be just a little too short for working on the hull... and it wouldn't fit in my SUV anyhow. I just unboxed my Little Giant Velocity M13 adjustable ladder. I didn't bother with reading the included instructions before messing around with it. It is heavier than I expected it to be but it is still very manageable. It has about the same weight as my 16' extension ladder, which won't fit in the SUV either. I was very pleasantly surprised at how the hinge latching mechanisms work. Just push them in, they are spring loaded and lock in place, open the hinge and they lock automatically in A frame mode. Push them again, they lock in their released position, and you just continue unfolding the hinge until they automatically lock in the extension ladder configuration. The locking mechanisms for extending the legs work the same way, easy and secure. Very easy, very secure. I went up and down both sides of this ladder while it was in it's step ladder configuration as well as up and down it when it was fully extended as an extension ladder. Solid enough for me, I'm over 200lbs, and I'm kind of fussy... I used to paint houses. You need to be able to trust your ladder. This is an awesome little ladder. ... show more

    • fantastic! Very useful!
Size: 17 Ft. Style: Without Levelers Pattern Name: No Accessory
As a new homeowner, I needed a ladder or ladders. I had been looking at a small step ladder and a larger ladder to use for getting on the roof / cleaning gutters etc. This was a great find. It is sturdy, easy to use and very versatile. I have used it inside to clean and work on light fixtures. I use it outside to clean gutters and fix siding. It is more adjustable than I originally expected and can be used with one side straight, putting you closer to what you are working on. It is light enough to lug around (or use the built in wheels to drag it a distance) and easy enough to fully extend and place against my home to get up to the roof (single story home). Other reviews have suggested it is heavy / cumbersome to do this but from my experience, this is just as simple as any other ladder. Possibly easier as this is pretty light compared to other ladders I have used. Currently this is the only ladder I own and I am able to use it for all projects I need a ladder for, big or small. I am someone who does not enjoy being on ladders, so for me a sturdy ladder is a must. I do not get a nervous feeling on this ladder. It feels solid. I also like that the top gets wider like the bottom. This makes it easier to get on/off a roof. I highly recommend this ladder. I bought it as a lightening deal for a great price, but it would be worth the money at regular price. ... show more
