Our take on the 12-1/2 ft Telescoping Ladder

A 12-1/2 ft telescoping ladder in 6063 alloy aluminum that collapses to 34 x 20 x 2-1/2 inches and weighs 20 lbs. Nine 12-inch-wide self-locking treads sit at a uniform 12-inch spacing, and flip-down Finger Safety Guards protect hands as the sections retract. It carries an EN-131 European rating that corresponds to a 250 lb duty rating. It suits homeowners who need occasional high work like gutters and painting and want a ladder that stores in a closet or car trunk. Against fixed extension ladders it trades some rigidity for portability; buyers call it sturdy and easy to move, though some say it takes a little practice to get the hang of.
