Little Giant Xtreme Ladder System
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 พ.ย. 2015
- Little Giant came out with a new Xtreme series ladders that range from 17 to 26 feet and are ANSI rated up to 300 pounds. This ladder is not the older heavy model from years ago, but still heavier than the other ladders that do not have adjustable legs. This ladder shines when you have an uneven work surface and need to have the legs at different heights. It also has one set of legs that can adjust from side to side for uneven work surfaces. Here again, it works, but they are only on one set of ladder legs, so working on a side slop is still not possible with the ladder perpendicular to the slope.

Thanks for the review John. I like that they made it lighter.
Thanks for the great review, John!
Looks like a nice ladder! Good review John!
Very good video I just wanted to see more of the capability of what Latter can do thank you
I have the largest 2 of the old originals and they are heavy but I have done untold numbers of jobs easily that I'm not sure how I could have done them safely without Little Giants.
For your tall friend, since the wheels are on the outside adjustable slide, all he has to do is extend the sliding portion a rung or two and he should be good to go.
AMAZING!!! i need bring it to México!!!!
Great review, even with that Pittsburgh Steelers shirt.
Easy to use. Mine has roller wheels to help moving around. Very safe.
I have a old version of the little giant and it is really heavy
Hi Jon good review as always bud. I have a question for you about the quad locks on the Xtreme. I like these ladders and have always wanted one. A few years back I used my friends helping him prune his huge trees and I know he had the original and I think it was a 22 foot and while fully extended it was pretty sketchy, I am sure part of that was the tree cuz we couldn't get a very good mounting surface for the top so one of us was always at the bottom holding the ladder real tight. Fast forward to today and I was finally able to get one and I got the LT 22 foot type 1A and I was able to pick it up cuz my mom had a $140 Groupon credit she gave me and I got %10 off so I only paid like $180 and I love the rock
locks they are awesome so are the palm hing locks. When it came and I went to register it I was looking at their other ladders and I saw they have quad locks now and they seem like they would keep the ladder stiffer cuz the 2 pin locks are kinda sketchy and the ladder will flex when it's fully extended, I don't worry that it will break but it still bothers me. I will almost always be using this ladder as an A-Frame ladder, one of the biggest reasons I got it is to use on stairs, but still I would like to get one with the quad locks. I checked on home depots website though and the cheapest one I could find with quad locks was $330. I don't know how much difference the quad locks make but to get one straight off the bat that's $150 more and then I couldn't use the $140 groupon credit so the extra $140 would have to come right out of my pocket and I don't want to pay that but I know the quad lock system would probably help with the flex. Keep in mind that I will rarely use this as an extension ladder and I do already have a large 10 foot extension ladder that extends to 17 or 18 feet I believe and at that height it comes close to reaching the very highest point on my roof or barn, however on both there are lower points I can easily get onto and then get to the top from there. So I guess what I am asking is 1 do the quad locks eliminate much flex when it's being used as an extension ladder? I will rarely use the Little Giant ladder as an extension ladder and I already have a regular extension ladder so I kinda don't think it'd be worth an extra $150 just for quad locks oh and plus the extra $140 I would have to pay out of pocket since I couldn't use the Groupon credit so that's $290 to get quad locks instead of keeping the one I got with the regular 2 pin locks. So 2 I wanted to ask you what you think about the quad locks and if it you think it would be worth so much money to get one of the ladder with them in my case? After seeing the quad locks I totally wanted one with them but I started to think about it and in my situation it doesn't see like it would be worth so much more money.
I vote for:
a. A wide add-on adjustable Sumo base with adjustable legs. Sort of a big H.
b. Tape markers to indicated rung overlap.
c. Optional rough terrain 4" or 5" wheels
d. Add-on top pieces for tree work. A simple web belt loop on each leg with a belt..... There are other ideas.
Good review. Where did you get the separate ratcheting leg set and how much was it?
You can buy them separate or they come with some of the ladders. As for price, it depends on the model. Anywhere from $50 to $150
Spend a little more and get the little giant revolution the rock locks a top locks are aluminum instead of plastic, and like he said has the leg leveling
Really only an issue if you're a professional/contractor who is going to abuse this thing on a daily basis. All the accessories you have to buy separately with the revolution add up fast.
John, To use the little giant as scaffolding do you have to buy another piece or does it come with it.
The two pieces will come apart and allow you to connect them together to make two a-frames them you supply the center of the scaffold.
Was this an AD or a review?
Is this like the ones seen on the TV ads years ago.?
Yes, they have got better, but they are still very expensive and heavily advertised on TV. Dewalt and other companies make them now also.
I'm back under 250 lbs and climbing these ladders tells me to drop down another 20 lbs in body weight. The 375 lbs versions are just asking for trouble.
Ok está bien
I got one. they have a purpose. I prefer my normal fiberglass most the time
A former coworker broke both of his wrists falling from a ladder. His wife must have really loved him to wipe his butt for months. Being crippled up like that was quite debilitating.
That would suck!
I'm in Sydney
I use these TYPE of ladders all the time
the one i use was bought at bunnings, the brand is "GORILLA"
they basically do the same things with maybe some minor differences
now... i just saw an AS SEEN ON TV on Ch 9 Morning show
now let's compare apples with apples
My ladder with all the accessories $300
the advertised ladder which they call a TL-35 ... wait for it,
with all accessories (same as mine) ............. $1,200
LOL... What a fucking rip off
the guy tried to argue Quality with me
Bottom line is ... I'm a tradie, i know this shit i know what it can do and i know what they all are
Example. this ladder in this video has the same locking system as my Gorilla, only that my one doesn't have the orange plastic bits. but, it's the same thing
it extends the same way, it drops the same way
this ladder has an integrated foot leveller, my one is at attachment, but it's the same thing
but that as seen on tv price... fuck man... 1200 vs 300
a person would have to be stupid to buy that
and ... the bloke on the phone told me "sir, today we have already sold 285 of them"
Now. it's only 11:30am and they have sold 285...........wow
this is a scam at it's finest
Its clunky....heavy....can cut your fingers off,....not as simple as it looks...notice how they are all ..puffing.
Werner and Gorilla Ladder make 375 lb units that are far better. Little Giants are over rated and over priced.
