Anyone have any pro or cons on buying a telescopic ladder? Looking for something lightweight but strong, use to carry a multi-fold but the thing weighs a ton and would like to replace it with something lighter weight.
Retired and lovin it!!

If you buy one, watch the weight rating. Some are only rated for up to 200 lbs, some up to 300.

They work well for getting on top of the RV. Not so much at higher levels. They wiggle quite a bit, when fully extended.

My only caveat is to watch your fingers when telescoping down.
