Review on πŸ§— Kidde Fire Escape 2-Story Ladder with Anti-Slip Rungs, 13-Foot Escape Rope Ladder by Brian Barnes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works in an emergency, damage to the exterior of the house noticed when practicing

Since September is Disaster Preparedness Month, I thought it wise to practice climbing stairs with the family. Since this is primarily the children's part of the house, children aged 18 to 11 practiced climbing up and down. Yes it's a bit shaky, yes it works. Important note (and reason for 4 stars vs. 5 stars)! As you can see in the picture, the metal edges of the steps are sharp and will cut into the wall of your house when going down, resulting in paint damage and puncture marks on the house siding. Also, while we were practicing, one of the red plugs on the hooked end of the stairs (ledge) came loose and pushed the panel out from under the ledge. Yes, the ladder works in an emergency, but be careful when exercising (and exercising), the ladder can damage the wall of your home.

Pros
  • Fireproof, strong and durable folding ladder
Cons
  • Almost never
