Little Giant Ladders, Velocity with Ratchet Levelers, M22, 22 Ft, Multi-Position Ladder, Aluminum, Type 1A, 300 lbs Weight Rating, (15422-801)

The ladder weekend great. The levers and releases work well and allow easy functionality.

I have to say I wish I ordered this years sooner. There are so many little things this ladder does well. I ordered it to help with painting a shed that had a weird side. The yard is terraced so one side of the shed is raised and awkward, and high to get to. I have a 6 foot a- frame ladder and a 16 ft extension ladder. Neither really seemed to work well. The little giant was the perfect in-between. Super stable with the ratcheting legs (a must in my opinion), and the 2 sided adjustments. Put me in a very comfortable, and safe position to finish painting. Then I used to repair our 2nd story deck. Again super stable on uneven ground.My only cons (which do not over shadow the pros). It is a little bit heavy, but to have the functionality it really has to be. Then because it has several adjustment options you need to be very careful. There are pinch points that could easily grab fingers. I found it helpful to lay the ladder on its side initially to get a feel for the "click in" points. There are situations where a 2nd person is helpful. But after using a few times it gets more intuitive.Overall I (as an avg DIY homeowner) would highly recommend. Again, ratcheting legs a must!

I love the versatility this ladder affords. It's fairly easy to fold open, but it's a little on the heavy side and a little awkward because of it's length. The added weight makes it feel very stable, especially with the racheting stabilizers, but I'm a 6'-1" semi-muscular man. I could see how someone shorter or less muscular might struggle getting it into position, but I feel the sense of stability outweighs the inconvenience. I bought the removable work platform with mine. It took a little getting used to trusting it, but once I did it made it more comfortable when you need to be on it for long periods.

Versatile .

Handy ladder to have around the house.Brakes down to a manageable size.A little pricey.But is built better than most extension ladders we have.Really feel safe going up this ladder compared to some of the other latter's we own.Glad we purchased it.

I purchased the 22’ velocity ladder to reach my two floor townhouse’s roof in hope to clean out my clogged downspout from above. The ladder ended up being about three feet too short. The ladder is very sturdy once it is extended against the wall. However, if you are a women like me, I found it to be too heavy to maneuver by myself. After having my nephew’s help, he managed to get it against the house and clear my gutter. I like the ease of use except for extending it at its highest level. I will get more use out of this when I stain my deck and for smaller jobs inside my house because I will not need to have it extended all of the way.

A little heavy and cumbersome for this old man, but still usable solo. With my daughter helping, it is very easy. Adjustable legs on one end work very well on slanted surfaces even all by yourself. But at 70, my daughter doesn’t let me do much by myself anyway. When you have a ladder this nice, it shouldn’t be hard to find someone to help you, or volunteer to help just to get to use it. I don’t think I’m going to let anyone borrow it, I don’t think it would come back. I know I would steal it if I saw it unattended!

The versatility of this ladder is what drove me to buy this product. The adjustable height as a step ladder allows me to do a multitude of jobs - from pruning my trees of different heights, to doing some indoor home repairs.
