- We all have tasks to carry out around the home where we may need a ladder. Here's a review of the Mastercraft Multi Ladder you may find interesting.
I am not sponsored by Canadian Tire or Mastercraft. This is just my thoughts on this ladder. I figure if you are looking to buy one of these units, you might find some of my impressions helpful in your determination of which ladder to get.

Thanks everyone and take 'er easy!!!
You can make an "S" hook to hang your paint can in the rung of the ladder,?You dont have to hold the paint in one hand.
How's she goin'? Yes that's a great thing to do. When on any ladder having 3 points of contact is always the safest and by hanging your paint can on the S hook, you have a hand free to make the 3rd point connection. Great idea!!! Thanks for mentioning it. I hope you liked the video and come back often!!! Great to have your input on the channel Take 'er easy!!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop you did a great job explaining,thaniks !
I got this was on sales.
I m happy I have it. The issue with the buttons and locking mechanism, DW40 took care of it. Have you tried that.?It needed to be lubricated.
Also like many people find it little heavy to carry around, but I don't minde the inconvenience for having a strong and safer ladder .
How's she goin'? I did put some lube on the buttons but they don't seem to line up just right and need some messing with to get them to engage. With use though it got better!! It is a strong ladder and the wide feet at the base give it extra stability, which is nice. Thanks for checking on the channel and take care!!
Yes be very careful with your finger. I got lucky it was just skin that scrapped. No fun at all. I recommend adjusting it laying flat on ground
How's she goin'? That is very good advice. It sure is a finger trap and if you lay it on the ground it is safer to adjust. A bit harder, but safer!!! Thanks for tuning in and take 'er easy!!!
I have one similar for 10 years or more now , has many uses and very versatile , where I found it the handiest is in stairways , like you say a finger trap , Ive pinched myself a few times and it hurts , the cause of some colorful poetry , nice review , have a good one
How's she goin'? I hear ya!!! You could write that poetry down and add a few chords and you'd have your self a hit song I bet!!! The ladder sure is versatile. Great for stairs like you say. Glad I have it , once it''s set up that is!!! Thanks for tuning in Darrell and have a great week buddy!!!
My parents got one at Costco. It's indeed sturdy. It can be heavy to move, but once it's set, then you are safe. For my purpose, I have the typical unstable step ladder. But I also got an 8-12 ft extension ladder that is incredibly light. I even use it indoor! For stairs, I like to set up scaffold boards standing in ladders to add some spice to the job! Lol! Thanks for sharing Mike!
Salut Joe!!! Man I'm way behind in responding to these comments. Sorry about that!!! I like when you say, "add some spice to the job." I know exactly what you mean!!! Thanks for tuning in and take 'er easy!!
Any chance I can get you to come and originaze my workshop....lol
A finger buster waiting to happen, but ladders are not really known for being extra safe, this one just has an extra bit of excitement.
How's she goin'? Yes sir, you have have to be on your guard when setting up this ladder. As for the organizing part, well I appreciate your comment, but I'm not too well organized myself. I find now, I'll change the shop around to be what I think is better organized, and then I'll forget where I put everything!!! Thanks for tuning in and take 'er easy!!!
I purchased one at Costco ,which is similar. 20 ' full up and 10 'step ladder. It is very sturdy and stable , but lord thunderin , is it ever heavy to move around. Yes, i did get my hand caught once between the rungs. Lesson learned quick ,i can tell ya. Take care!!
How's she goin'? So you know what I'm talking about eh!!! Ouch!!! Not a bad ladder though. Mine is rugged and stable and once it's set up, it works well!!! Thanks for tuning in and take 'er easy!!!
Was thinking to get one
Salut Serge!!! I think these are good units, but like I say, they are tricky to set up and they like to bite your fingers!!! Thanks for tuning in and take care!!!
Thank you for the great review! Really helpful!
How's she goin'? Well thank you for leaving a comment. The ladder works very well but mine is hard to get the safety locks to open. Nothing major, just a bit of an inconvenience. Thanks again for tuning in and take care!!
Don't ask me how I know about the fingers but I can still give you a thumbs up 👍
Bonsoir Monsieur, vous avez fait un excellent video !!! Bonne soirée !!!
Salut mon ami!!! Merci beaucoup!!! Le ladder marche bien mais il faut faire attention quand tu fais un adjustment!!! Merci d'avoir regarde et bonne soiree!!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop Oui il faut faire attention à tous ses doigts !!! LOL Bonne nuit !
Ah the steps. Same problem on our ladder as well.
How's she goin'? The ladder is decent and stable, but getting it set up, well let's just say, it's not a cake walk!!! Thanks for watching and have a good week!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop thanks!
Good morning Grampie! That review was bang on 100% accurate. I have the same ladder. Watch your fingers! LOL. So true. Of course, it was alot cheaper than other ones so I guess you kind of have to take the good with the bad. Thanks for sharing ! Cheers and enjoy the long weekend!
Also Grampie , could you email me at gordpotter55 at gmail dot com. Cheers!
How's she goin'? I guess that's the thing with these types of ladders. Plenty flexible and easy to get your fingers caught!!! I guess having a jammed finger is easier to deal with than falling off an improperly set up ladder and breaking an arm eh!!! Thanks for watching Gord and we'll take to ya!!!
I love your comment about the ladder and gravity. 😂. Great review.
I'd definitely end up pinching my fingers in it. I'd also dislike the narrow rungs. I have arthritis and peripheral neuropathy which makes my feet very sensitive to uneven surfaces.
Having said that, if you only have the space to store one ladder, it's probably a good choice.
I had one of those 40' extension ladders that got used about once every ten years. I finally sold it for $40 a couple years ago after dragging it around for a few decades lol.
Have a great long weekend!
Hello there Bruce!!! For a home owner with limited space this would be a good choice for a ladder like you say. I also have a 24 foot extension ladder, but I can store it on the side of the barn and so it isn't an issue. They both have their places for sure eh!!! The rungs are very uncomfortable for me to stand on for any length of time so I tend to use the step ladder or the extension ladder more than this one, but I still think this is a decent ladder to have around. Thanks for tuning in and I hope your Labour Day weekend rocks!!!
Excellent review Mike . I have one very similar. Yes the steps are painful on the feet. Best part I like is you can transport it easy. Cheers
How's she goin'? You're right Steve. I never mentioned that because I don't transport it anywhere!!! LOL Thanks for watching and grab another cold one from your fridge!!!
Awesome Grampie《☆》I got the $99 special Haulmaster from Harbor freight :*: It's advertized 17' but rated 15' so I got what I paid for & the rungs are a bit painful if your not wearing workboots :*: Have a good one Bro🤓☻🤠
How's she goin'? My feet hurt me just walking around so I can't stand on the ladder too long even with work boots., It's strong and sturdy though. Thanks for tuning in and I really enjoy you comments. Take 'er easy!!
I have the same one. I regret my purchase, they're dangerous if you don't use them all the time. I've cut my fingers more than once with them. I now don't even think of using them without gloves any longer.
How's she goin'? Yes sir, they sure are a finger trap!!! When I set mine up I am very aware of where my fingers are all the time and still I have gotten pinched a time or two. The plus of this type of ladder is the ability to set it up on un-level surfaces. I needed it to paint in a stairway. It worked real good for that, but setting it up sort of took the fun out of it for sure!!! Great that you found my channel and watched this video. I sure appreciate it and I hope you come back often!! Take care!!!
I like your folger coffee can idea :)
How's she goin'? Thanks!!! I used to use any sort of container to store little bits and pieces in, then I thought coffee cans would be better as they are bigger. But the were hard to grab a hold of to lift them down off the shelf. When Folgers came out with a plastic can that was easy to grip, well I was like a kind in a candy shop!!! Thanks for watching and take care!!
At one time, I was going to get one of those ladders but decided not for some of the reasons you mentioned. I do, however, like the flare of the bottom legs which implies more stability from side-to-side. Thanks for the fine review, Mike.
How's she goin'? For the most part I like this ladder. Once it's set up it works great. Hard on my feet to stand on, but nice and stable and sturdy!!! Thanks for watching and take care!!!
Hello Mike. Great review . I spend a lot of time on ladders at work. We have tried different ladders over the year and our favourite ones are the simple ones. we have tried ones like you have. Most of them are sitting on a shelf at the shop not being used. We use one that is a step ladder plus turns into a straight one also. No levers to pull or buttons to push just simple to use and very strong and also really light too. Cheers
Hey there John!!! I find this ladder is cumbersome to get set up and is hard on my feet, but the versatility of it is great. For outdoor work around the camp here, on uneven ground and such, I like this one the best. But I agree with you, it's not a simple ladder to use and is a finger trap waiting to be sprung on a poor unsuspecting old guy like myself!!! Thanks for watching John and take care!!!
@Gerald Dixon Cummings Hello there Gerald!!! This ladder is great like you say and setting it up on it's side maybe worth trying. Thanks a lot for the great comment!!! Take care!!
@Gerald Dixon Cummings Hey Gerald!! Wow 25 feet. There are a lot of rungs on that puppy so watch your fingers!!! LOL
Aren't you glad I talked you into buying it!!!!! My main reason was to make it safer when working on unlevel areas - like the stairs!!!!
Yes I sure am. I still have a bruise where you twisted my arm!!! LOL You are always looking after me. I sure am one of the lucky ones!!!
Great review there Grampie.
How's she goin'? Thanks Kirk!! I have used this ladder a few times and these were my thoughts. I hope they help someone who was thinking about getting one of these ladders. Thanks for watching and take 'er easy!!!
I bet I can guess how you know that!! LOL Thanks Mike for the review! It seems to be a good ladder for around the house! Have a good weekend!!
Hello there John!!! This is a pretty good ladder for around the home. Because it is so versatile from an adjustment point of view, it sure comes in handy!!! But it also likes to pinch fingers, so you have to be on your guard!!! Thanks for tuning in and take 'er easy!!
Just bought one haven't used it yet, thanks for the review there fella!
How's she goin'? Welcome to the channel!!! I like this ladder. It's stable and heavy duty. The adjusting, I have to say, can be a challenge, but other wise, it's a good tool to have. I hope you enjoyed your visit to the channel and I would like to see you back often!!! Take care!!
I got mine set up as a step ladder and it stays that way.
How's she goin'? That's the beauty of these ladders. They can be a really good step ladder and when you need to get to high places, they'll straighten out for that. I appreciate you watching and the comments!!! Take care!!!
