I purchased the option for the ratcheting leveler legs which will be extremely handy/helpful on the island. I purchased the ladder directly from Little Giant and obtained free shipping plus they have a limited time offer to include their tool workstation and painting platform free of charge. To be honest, I never thought that I'd ever buy anything other than a Werner.

Other than the weight you will like it. Just watch your hands when you are releasing it from an extended position if handling it alone. It can come down like a guillotine.
