I bought this for myself, and have to keep scolding the hubby for stealing it!!!  Now that I can reach, I can do everything myself without having to ask for help!  Garage ladders are all too big and too heavy for me to manage myself; now I don't have to ask the hubby to bring ladders in for me anymore.  I'm not getting any younger and this ladder is amazing.  It's as light as air and still very supportive, including supporting the 6'2" over 200 lb. hubby!  Love the wider steps, and a platform to boot.  Love it so much I also bought the same ladder in the 3 step!  I really wish they made a 4 step in this same ladder as I'd be all over it!!!
