Good, but expensive

It works well but the gorilla is similar and far cheaper. See a video comparison at http://www.infonotmercial.com/littlegiant-gorilla.html
I have the little giant, but a friend has the gorilla and he paid far less at Costco.

Pros
Does its job well
Cons
Expensive

More than a gimmick

I was always a little leary of spending the big bucks they want for this ladder, thinking it was overly gimmicky infomercial rip off. I had a chance to work with a borrowed one and wasn't really impressed. When my local big orange retail giant discontinued them, they had the display model really cheap, I just had to pick it up. This ladder has grown on me. It collapse into a short package hardly larger than a 4 ft. step ladder, and fully open it is either an 17 ft. straight or a 7 ft. step.

It works on steps and in stair wells great.

The only thing that I really don't care for is the weight.

Pros
Versatile configuration.
Cons
Heavy
