Little Giant Ladders, Velocity with Wheels, M17, 17 Ft, Multi-Position Ladder, Aluminum, Type 1A, 300 lbs Weight Rating, (15417-001)

As a new homeowner, I needed a ladder or ladders. I had been looking at a small step ladder and a larger ladder to use for getting on the roof / cleaning gutters etc. This was a great find. It is sturdy, easy to use and very versatile. I have used it inside to clean and work on light fixtures. I use it outside to clean gutters and fix siding. It is more adjustable than I originally expected and can be used with one side straight, putting you closer to what you are working on.It is light enough to lug around (or use the built in wheels to drag it a distance) and easy enough to fully extend and place against my home to get up to the roof (single story home). Other reviews have suggested it is heavy / cumbersome to do this but from my experience, this is just as simple as any other ladder. Possibly easier as this is pretty light compared to other ladders I have used.Currently this is the only ladder I own and I am able to use it for all projects I need a ladder for, big or small.I am someone who does not enjoy being on ladders, so for me a sturdy ladder is a must. I do not get a nervous feeling on this ladder. It feels solid. I also like that the top gets wider like the bottom. This makes it easier to get on/off a roof.I highly recommend this ladder. I bought it as a lightening deal for a great price, but it would be worth the money at regular price.

Little Giant, your ladders are pure awesomeness ladderfied. I will gladly take money to go give you good reviews across the web. That said, I am currently not employed or affiliated in anyway with this company, the seller, or any other direct or indirect connection. My home inspector was the one who actually sold me on buying this ladder, but it was buying this ladder that actually sold me on owning this ladder. Seriously, I have all pros to give for my review and no cons yet, so here they are:PROS:-Durable & strong in every form/shape I've used so far. Honestly, safety is the thing I care about most when getting up and down a ladder. I was initially concerned this would be wobbly, weak, and/or janky. It is most certainly none of those things.-It works as longer, medium, or shorter ladder for a plethora of circumstances and/or needs.-It has a flexible design in general and is easily reconfigurable to other ladder options as well as reduced in size for storage and/or carrying.-It was relatively fairly priced considering the usability/functionality of the product.-The intuitive design effort seemingly led to a truly user-friendly product (for once, these days).-The ladder has yet to pinch me, worry me, or not fit a certain need. This alone makes my Little Giant better than any other ladder I have ever used and/or owned.I guess it's kind of needless to say at this point but all the same I highly recommend this ladder, friends. It has not disappointed me a single time, to date.

It’s a really excellent ladder. I love that it has wheels to roll it easily because it’s a tad heavy for women to manage. You feel solid and sturdy when standing on it. It’s fairly compact when storing. I’m 5’4” and it comes up to my chin when broken down to store.From a woman’s perspective, it’s a little tricky and a little heavy to manage BUT doable. Tip- be careful adjusting height bc you can pinch your arm or hand when figuring it out the first couple of times. I have a blood blister on my inner wrist to prove it.The only thing truly that I actively dislike is the cross rails you standing. They’re a bit too thin. The biggest con for me is the rails are incredibly hard to lean against for any length of time. I used the ladder to work on windows for about an hour yesterday. Today I have bruises and swollen areas in my knees and upper thighs from this. I’d love it if there was some sort of rubber padding on the rails to prevent this.All in all, I give it a 4-5 star rating and can recommend it.

I purchased it as a gift for my husband, but I use it. It is easy to carry. Good, solid ladder.

The Little Giant Velocity M17 Multi-Position Ladder is a game-changer for tackling home projects. This versatile ladder can transform into a step ladder, extension ladder, or scaffold, making it perfect for almost any job around the house. The aluminum build is lightweight yet sturdy, and the wheels make it easy to move around. With a 300 lb weight rating, I feel secure using it for everything from high shelves to outdoor tasks.Pros: Multi-position versatility, sturdy build, lightweight, easy to store with wheels.Cons: Very bulky when fully extended, so it takes up more space than traditional ladders. 300 lb weight limit may not be enough for strong people.If you're looking for a ladder that can handle any task, the Little Giant Velocity M17 is worth the investment!

I purchased this ladder after years of needing one, and not wanting to spend $500 on a quality aluminum extension ladder. I had a really nice 30 ft fiberglass one, but some moron that I hired to do some landscaping ran over it with his bobcat. I needed this to care for my 2 story colonial -- usual stuff: gutter cleaning, maintenance of siding, windows, etc. I'm getting too old for roof work anymore, but there's still a lot to do done which requires a good ladder. I wanted something sturdy, good length, and doesn't take up a lot of space. This ladder checks all of the boxes, plus, it does the work of 4 or 5 different types of ladders. I used it today for the 1st time to clean the gutters. I purchased the LG standoff, which turned out to be a good buy. The ladder is pretty sturdy, can be reconfigured fairly easily once you get the hang of it (watch those fingers!), the rungs are wide-enough, and it's weight is OK. It's light enough to carry around, but it's still around 40 lbs, so a little muscle helps. For the price I paid, I'd say this is a good deal. The more expensive models are lighter, but this will fit the bill. I plan on adding leveling feet in the future, as my property isn't flat in some spots. Recommended.

Fast shipping, quality product, and great price.
