i love mine. Helped a friend hang a light had that ladder extented 26 feet i was on the second to the last step. NO PROBLEM i weight 264 also.
I've had one for years and love it. Many contractors use em too. You do have to be careful on the finger thing though (duh). They are much sturdier than the cheepo warehouse store variety.

Use one all the time, guess you got to be smarter than the ladder.
Would that be similar to this ladder?

One of the guys that works for me got one and we used it on a job. I told him I was glad he bought it cause now I won't. I thought it was very heavy, cumbersome and difficullt to use, and we didn't even encounter the hurting ourselves part.
How can you say it's heavy and cumbersome? It's 24 ladders in one you know
Actually the reason I got it was you won't find anything better for laddering on stairs. Great if your painting, or hanging crown. If I just wanted an A frame, or an extension ladder, I would use (and own) one of those. Much lighter and easier to use.
Not mechanically inclined...step away from the killer ladder.
I've used them several times for carpentry/painting/construction work, no complaints here.
