The last TT we bought we bought 3 years old, with ladder. Most of the model we decided we wanted had a factory ladder to the roof. A few did not. Our last TT did not have a ladder, and this time, I decided we would not buy one without.
We are not disappointed -- would not buy a TT without a factory ladder, due to the convenience of it. But then again, I only weigh 170 lbs, so I'm nowhere close to pushing the weight limit. And yes, it's not as easy to climb as a free standing ladder, but I don't find it an issue at all.
Personally, we haven't had a problem with kids climbing on it.
I have aluminum step ladders at home to use for waxing the RV and so on, but the factory roof ladder is quite sufficient for us when camping, so we don't have to carry a free standing ladder. I also believe that having a factory ladder on the unit adds utilitarian appeal that would help when time to sell.
I have one of the exact ladder. I still use it regularly. They stopped making them many years ago; I don't know why. I thought it was a great design and an alternative to having to buy a step ladder and an extension ladder. I would buy another one if they were still available.
