Little Giant Ladders Jumbo 3-Step FG, Hi-viz Green, 11933

This ladder is amazing. I use it as my steps up to my tailgate in my over landing rig. It’s light and easy to take along with us and the wide steps on it make it feel like you’re simply walking up a set of stairs and it is very stable.

This concerns the 3-step fiberglass "Jumbo Step" My wife and I aren't comfortable any longer using our light-duty aluminum step stool. The Little Giant model is way sturdier and more stable without being too heavy. Thumbs up. I'll limit the review mostly to dimensions missing from the product description on this page. Measurements below are close but not precise. At the moment the Amazon product page notes "maximum height: 8 feet" under "Product Specifications." That's WAY off the mark. Length, fully collapsed: 43″ Height when in use—from floor to top step: 26½–27″ Height when in use—from floor to the top of the fully extended vertical support bar: 53½″ Ladder width: ~19″ "Footprint" when fully opened: 21″ x 33″ Step size: 13½″ wide x 8½″ deep The steps aren't slippery but don't have rubberized or other non-skid surfaces. The bottoms of the step stool's plastic feet also aren't non-skid. Distance from floor to first, second, and top steps: 8½″, 17½″, and 26½″ respectively Length of vertical support bar: 26″ Size of the plastic feet: 2″ x 3″ Dimensions of the tray on the vertical support bar: 4¼″ x 16″ I agree with other reviewers — it's annoying how the step stool can unfold partway when it's carried. Easy fix for keeping the legs in place: a short length of (non-elastic) 1½″ "self stick" hook and loop strapping — comes with plastic buckles. See photo. Worked like a charm for this purpose and took less than 5 minutes to put together. There are several brands/widths of that kind of strapping available from Amazon.

I've used larger Little Giant ladders and always thought they were overkill. This Jumbo Step IS the read deal for my uses around the house. The wide steps are incredibly sturdy and the handrail provides a means to maintain your balance. If you're looking for a great utility ladder that is sturdy and easy to move around the house, this is it!

Let me start out with the bad parts: It's stupid expensive compared to other step ladders and it has an enormous footprint when it's opened up. It takes up more ground space than any step ladder I've ever used. But it has such wonderfully large steps. You can stand sideways on the steps. Or backwards. I've never had a step ladder before I could walk down facing BACKWARDS. Most step ladders make me feel like I'm about to fall over, but I felt totally stable and in control every time I've used it. It feels like walking up and down stairs instead of a ladder. I also love how the hand rail can be left down if I don't need it. The rail is compatible with many Little Giant accessories such as the paint trays and tool bags. I do wish they incorporated magnets into the top rail, like Werner does with their Podium ladders. It's also got a 375 pound maximum capacity, which means it's built super tough.

This is a really nice ladder. I see only two things that somewhat bother me. This ladder does not lock when closed or open. So when trying to transport it. It’s a bit awkward if you grab it in the wrong spot it will try to open. The second thing that I am not too amused by is the feet on this ladder. They are just plastic. I setup this ladder on my vinyl plank floor and it was slippery and sliding around. I would prefer a hard rubber for the feet to prevent this.

High quality. Easy set up and take down to store.

Not to heavy for me too move, stairs are deep & stable and opens & collapses easily. 75 yr old 5'3" female
