HBTower 12.5 FT Telescoping Ladder With 2 Triangle Stabilizers: Lightweight, Durable, And Versatile For RV Or Outdoor Work Review

The color of this ladder is different from that of most expansion ladders in the market. I like it very much. The design of the triangle stabilizer is unique. I bought a ladder for this design. It's also very stable to use, and I'm very happy about it.

Overall it seems like a really well made ladder. The releases work great and it's incredibly easy to use. It doesn't do the slow release like is required for the EN131 standard, however, instead it doesn't close all the way initially which really achieves the same purpose, preventing your fingers from being smashed. I haven't tried any other telescoping ladders so can't really comment on efficacy of the triangle stabilizers, but I definitely see the logic in them. The ladder extends easily…

THE GOOD: It’s compact, light weight, height customizable, and sturdy.THE BAD: Wobbles a little the higher you climb. You could smash your fingers when closing if you’re not paying attention.This is my second telescopic ladder. I love these things because of their portability and ease of use. I got this one to store in my Class C rec vehicle since it doesn’t have a permanent one.At home, I recently used this ladder to change a bulb in a ceiling fan that’s in a hallway with very high ceilings…

I ordered this hoping that it would be similar to one I saw my contractor using. I was coveting it something awful and was trying to find an excuse to get one ( my wife gives me the eye every time I buy a tool). When I saw this one I pounced and now I’m happy. It is lightweight, sturdy and can be tucked away easily. It literally takes up less space than a step ladder.Height adjustments are simple pull up to desired position, press rungs to lower. Good product. Thanks.

HBTower's 12.5 Ft. Red Aluminum Telescoping Ladder is overall very nice and well built.It is very easy to move, heighten and shorten. Walmart technology and design. Wow.As I am a taller and bigger (o.k. heavier - I said it.) individual I did not feel it would steadily hold my weight if I went to the very top of the ladder but aside from that I am very impressed to say the very least. Two thumbs up overall and four out of five stars because I would like it to feel more sturdy during use when…

i got this because it's small and compact and i needed something decent sized we could nice around the house easily. it isn't very heavy but does have some weight to it. just the right amount of weight to make it sturdy.raising and lowering it takes a little getting used to by knowing where to grip it to extend it and then knowing where to hold it when releasing the rails to collapse it. you need to make sure you hold the next rail up or it will collapse quickly. not a huge issue though because

I'm 6'5" and weigh 290 pounds. Needless to say, I had my doubts about a collapsible ladder being able to support me. But this HBTower collapsible ladder is really great. The ladder stores easily, and is easy to transport. While the frame seems to be all plastic, and "gives" while on the ladder, I never felt like the ladder was going to collapse. The give is something you also see in other ladders when extended to length, so I don't let that bother me.The ladder is easy to extend and to collapse

Got this ladder specifically solely because of how it can be stored in a small space relative to most ladders which is huge with how much stuff we have.Make sure you know how to use this ladder before you do end up using it because it is a little different than your typical ladder and the directions are pretty worthless. I have used it to get 10 feet up and the higher you go the more flex you can feel, but it by no means feels like it is going to snap and I feel safe going up and down as…

Let me start by saying I used this ladder in cold weather to put up lights. It might function differently inside or in warmer weather. That said, as I went to put up Christmas lights this ladder was scary.The plastic pieces that release each rung are a harder plastic and didn't want to snap in place, it felt shakey. It wasn't as solid as others have said.When the rungs did release, they slammed down so hard I was afraid I'd lose a finger. Even on it's side and you try to glide it in place, it's

This ladder is great. It's a basic one sided ladder that you can lean against a wall or tree and it's actually quite stable. It's made of aluminum and plastic and quickly telescopes as high as you need it, so it's nice if you only need a 6 foot ladder. It's easier to carry than I was expecting. Keep in mind this ladder extends to over 12 feet in length so it's really cool that it can be stashed in a corner of your garage or home and it takes up significantly less space than a traditional…

I ordered this ladder as a bridge between my 6ft step ladder and my 30ft extension ladder. It works very well in this capacity. I (200 lb) feel pretty safe and steady on the ladder on even ground. Because there are so many segments to the ladder, it is somewhat more flexible than either of my other two ladders and I don’t know that I would trust it to carry a bundle of shingles up to the roof for example. For light duty use (painting, decorating) I think it works just fine.It is pretty light…

I was impressed with a lot of features with this extension ladder. It feels very stable when fully extended, the leg latches have a good positive engagement. The steps have a good width to them and feel very stable.I really like the way that the ladder collapses into a very mobile unit, it is easy to reach over the top rung and grab the bottom rung to pick up and carry.The only issue I found was when collapsing the legs, if you push both latch release slides at the same time, the legs can come…

I really like this ladder. It's super easy to use. It's easy to carry around and it's easy to collapse. You don't have to have all of the steps up as you're able to set however many steps you want. It seems sturdy and well made. The is a strap that goes around all of the ladder steps to keep them together (4th picture). I really like this function.

This is a great ladder that doesn’t take up much space. The only thing I didn’t like is you definitely need a good support to put it on because since it is retractable, it’s not as solid as I had hoped.

I chose this ladder for my daughter and grandson so they would be able to make a safe exit out of one of the 2 windows on the second floor in case of a fire. They live alone in a 3 story apartment and sleep on the 2nd floor, I was worried that if there were a fire what would they do to get out. This ladder is amazing how it folds so nicely yet extends so far. My daughter is able to store this ladder under her bed and within just a few moments access it to escape. I sleep better knowing this…

I got this ladder to trim a big tree and it is very sturdy and when it’s not being used it is in my garage on a loft it’s very compact. Very good quality product.

This is a nice ladder. It is really sturdy and a bit heavier than I expected. It says light weight and I guess it is for a ladder but it isn't as lightweight as I had in mind, haha. That is no problem though because I can still carry it around and it stores very compact. Perfect to keep in a garage or shed and throw in the trunk if you need to take it somewhere. It is definitely much sturdier than I would have thought as well. I am close to 300lbs and I have no worries that this will not hold…

The only thing I have a 'complaint' about is that it's kind of heavy for the average user. However, this thing is sturdy as any regular ladder I've used and it fits in my trunk without taking up any more space than a bag of groceries.

This ladder is very compact and light for it's height. It can easily fit in the trunk of a car or RV. It is effortless to set up and takes less than 5 seconds. You do have to be careful when lowering the rungs as not to smash your fingers. It does flex a bit when climbing which makes me feel uneasy but it has an advertised 330lb weight capacity so I'm trusting it.

This ladder is great! Small enough to be very light and portable yet extends far enough to be able to get onto my roof!I didn't have any issues using it and it seems to be quality made.
