The Little Giant Ladder is probably best known for those
infomercials where they do all kinds of stuff with a
ladder to show off its incredibly unique features. As
you can imagine I was so excited when I looked outside my house today and saw
that the Type 1A revolution XE Little Giant Ladder had
arrived. I quickly dragged it inside and started to play
with all of its versatile features. The Revolution XE
can be used as five models of ladder at various heights
depending on your circumstances.
You have your conventional A frame ladder and using the
convenient Rock Locks(extremely easy to use even with
one hand) that can extend the A frame from 4 feet to 7
feet. The extension ladder goes from 9 feet to 15 feet
and the scaffold is 3 feet tall by pulling the two
sections off the inner one and using the plastic
brackets. To use the Revolution XE as a scaffold you
will need to use a plank or scaffold platform that is
not included with the Little Giant Revolution.
The Revolution XE can also be used as a 90 degree ladder
to get you closer to your work or the wall and is about
4 feet six inches at its lowest and 6 feet six inches at
its tallest. These heights including the ones for the
extension and A frame are not the highest points you can
safely step on the ladder but the height of the actual
top of the ladder. I love this feature as there are
times when i need just a few extra inches and I feel
safe up there.
I set the ladder up and went to work on a few items that
needed attention around the house. I replaced a light in
the hallway and then I used the feature where you can
put the legs on the stair case and I cleaned and dusted
the chandelier in the front entrance hallway. I felt the
ladder was sturdy the entire time.
I loaded the ladder into the back of my car with ease
and had no trouble taking it in and out. It's a little
heavy but not too bad.
I think that this is the PERFECT gadget/tool/gift for
ANY man OR woman! I love it and would recommend it to
anyone who's looking for a versatile ladder
that can save loads of space!
Retails for $429.99.
