Description of Telesteps 1205 12-1/2' Telescoping Ladder
Out of the box, this little ladder doesn't look like it's going anywhere. But start telescoping it and you almost can't believe your eyes. It extends to 12-1/2 feet from its closed height of 2-1/2 feet; plus, you can use the ladder in any of its 1-foot increments. Stainless-steel spring-loaded bolts inside the rungs lock into place as you extend the ladder. The rungs are made of processed aluminum, and serrated treads feel strong and secure under your feet. When you're done, you just tug on the locking rings, collapse the rungs down, and walk away with a 2-1/2-foot, 23-pound ladder under one arm. It takes virtually no space to store--put it under a bed, in a closet, in a car trunk--and totes anywhere. Clever as can be. --Kris Jensen-Van HesteTools and Hardware Reviews of Telesteps 1205 12-1/2' Telescoping Ladder
Customer Review: Nice Idea, Piece of Junk, Poor Service
Summary: 1 Stars
These ladders are quite ingenious. A very simple plastic fitting and steel pin locks the sections together as they are extended, and they progressively collapse coming down. I've had 2. Each lasted about a month of very light use. Soon one of the locking pins won't engage and its useless. The first one I sent back and they sent me a re-conditioned one. Another month, the same thing. I've called. They won't give you a drawing of the mechanism to try and fix it or explain how it works, and all the pieces are press-fit so it's non-repairable outside the factory. They basically said "too bad". After taking it apart I can see what I might have tried for a fix, but too late. They really are unrepairable and the company was no help. Save your money. Too bad there is no "0" star rating.
