When the Flip-N-Lite ladder arrived, my wife lost track of how many times she heard me use the word, WOW! This is the ladder I have been hoping to find for a long time. However, it was only a month earlier when I purchased the Polder Ultra light Aluminum 3-Step Ladder thinking it was the ladder that would best meet my needs. I had been looking for a light weight, easy to use & store ladder for use mainly inside the house for all those times when there is a need to reach an upper closet/cabinet shelf or reset a clock high on the wall or do a little wall/ceiling painting. The Polder Ultra light ladder seemed to fit my needs. While it is a very nice ladder that I intend to keep, I began to wish it could do more, such as get me a little higher up and offer a slightly more secure feeling when there. After doing more research on Amazon & other sites, it began looking like maybe the 5-Foot Flip-N-Lite from Little Giant would give me what I was looking for, and boy did it ever!
Here is what I like about it. (1) The aluminum frame is smooth and well finished. There is NOT a rough edge or jagged part on this ladder that could catch your hand or inflict an injury, making it a pleasure to handle. (2) The ladder is rock-solid secure, boasting a Type IA, 300 lbs. load limit. When you are on the top step (a textured platform measuring approximately 12" deep x 13" wide) you are 2'-9" above the floor, and you feel very safe. Adding to your sense of security is the fact that the sides of this ladder extend another 25" above the top step. This allows you to "lean in" against the top bar, thus giving you great stability while freeing up both hands for the job. (3) The orange colored top bar of the ladder also happens to be a convenient 3" W x 12" L x 1" D tray for holding small tools, brushes, or rags. (4) When opening the ladder the top step latches onto a bar across the back of the ladder with a loud CLICK that lets you know the ladder is fully & securely opened & locked. Pull the orange handle to release the step when ready to close the ladder. (5) At just 10.5 lbs. the ladder is easy to carry around with one hand. (6) At its folded height of 63" it easily fits into the back of my Toyota RAV4 when the passenger seat is collapsed or easily stores away under a bed frame or in a clothes closet.
In summary, this ladder is well designed & well made. Its size, weight, durability, and handling features make it just the right ladder for all kinds of chores both inside and outside the house. Yes it is made in China, but is "designed and engineered in the USA," says Little Giant. Yes I would recommend it. Yes I would buy another if anything happens to mine. Yes this is a great product at an affordable price. The only thing left to say is, WOW!
Not disappointed. This ladder is very light. I can carry it with one arm, and the built in carry handle makes it convenient and comfortable to do so. It opens smoothly with the platform handle. I absolutely love the platform and side rails. It’s inherent design intentionally prevents you from over stepping the ladder’s reach height. This top rung IS a step! It says up to 300 pounds support, so it is strong as it is light.
The 3 step version is perfect height for me. I am 5’8” and this puts my head right at the 8.5 foot ceiling while on the platform.
owner of a monster Type 1A Model 26 for the better part of at least 10 years and
have used it for everything. Everything including jobs that don't require anything
more that the minimum size of 6' in height. Anything less than that & I just went
with a footstool or a chair or my tippy-toes... needless to say, that isn't the safest
or most efficient way to get the work done.
I was getting ready to buy a Little Giant "Little Jumbo" 3 foot step ladder =>
Little Giant 10310B Safety Stepladder with Bar and Tray, 3-Step but,
I wasn't buying immediately and for some reason, & then I found this less expensive solution.
I know the quality of Little Giant ladders from being a long time owner and was
not about to hesitate buying the "Flip'n Lite" version of their step ladder. First of all,
this ladder is lighter weight PLUS it is rated to hold the same weight of it's larger
sibling which means I don't have to think twice when interchanging the two... in
other words, it's a strong ladder despite it's light weight. It is almost a full 10 pounds
lighter than the "Little Jumbo" and the extra features on the "Little Jumbo" weren't
as attractive as the lighter weight.
So, I decided to buy this ladder once Amazon had it in stock. I was ready to buy and
sure enough... they had a waiting period for delivery and that means I could put it off
again and stick with my other methods of getting the job done until they got more
stock in. Once it showed up as available, I made the purchase immediately.
The ladder showed up in the manufacturer's packaging and it too was impressive. The
box was sturdy and secure... it even came with a set of 8 perforated handles built into the
box to make the delivery less cumbersome because it does happen to be a fairly large
and awkward box otherwise. Inside the box was the "Flip'n Lite" Step Ladder encased
inside a thick clear plastic shrink wrap with display advertisements and instructions
included. It was packaged to be delivered in showroom shape, perfect!
Once I opened the box and had some time to use the ladder, it has been smooth sailing.
I have been able to move more quickly from job to job because of the lighter weight and
smaller dimensions and most importantly, I know I always have my feet on solid footing.
This makes any work I'm doing much more rewarding. The mechanism to open and
close the "Flip'n Lite" is fairly straightforward. It is not a ladder I can toss around like
my Model 26, but for the work I will be using it for, there should be no need for that. I can
really appreciate the effortless feel of using this step ladder over the Model 26. That will
make my life much more efficient as I won't be groaning about breaking out the Model
26.
One nice thing I found about owning this second Little Giant ladder is that I now really
appreciate this one even more so than the Model 26, just because I had no idea how
the Model 26 was going to hold up over the years. Since I have tons of experience under
my belt with the Model 26, I know that just from using the "Flip'n Lite" for less than 2 full
days... it is another winner! Well worth the investment. If you need a decent step ladder,
I highly recommend the "Flip'n Lite" from Little Giant and of course Amazon proves once
again why they are the World's Biggest & Best online retailer. "(^^)"
