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: Cannot recommend Telesteps, wish I could
Summary: 1 Stars
I am a home inspector. When I first bought this just over a year ago, for attics, I loved it. I started using it in different areas of the home, all the time. Well, just a couple months ago, the top rung pulled off as I was extending it. I contacted the current manufacturer at the supplied phone number. At first they were friendly, said to send it in with the warranty showing it was less than a year old. I told the man it was just over a year old. He wrote back by Email and said there was "nothing" they could do then. I replied that I understood but I would be happy to ship it and pay whatever it takes to fix it. The company asked what part of "they can't help me" did I not understand. The said it was impossible to supply me with any parts or to do factory repairs. As it is, I tried to figure out how repair it myself and thought I did okay. But yesterday I realized the top two rungs are now only holding on one side....it almost collapsed on me when fully extended. I cannot seem to make them latch, no matter what I do. Since I paid nearly $300.00 for this just over a year ago, I am an unhappy customer. It is hard to imagine a so-called professional product in that price range, that cannot be repaired for love nor money. Too bad, it sure is handy but not worth trying to fix by one's self and then taking a serious fall which appears to be a likely scenario as the latches fail one by one.
