So useful!I have the 3-step ladder and I keep it tucked away next to my dryer. It's so light, sturdy, and easy to open and close.

Short SuccessWas working in a home with 50ft high ceilings and a lot of open space. Easy to move around and the additional two steps a help in added height. I loved using this so much I had to know where purchased and bought for my home even though I don't have 50ft ceilings. I can't say enough about this light weight ladder.

5 Step ladder - good quality, lightweightI am very happy with this 5-step ladder. I already have a 3 step one and it is fine for most things. We have high ceilings in our house, though, and it's just not enough for some applications. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the ladder and it is very lightweight for as large and well made as it is. No more countertop surfing - I'm getting too old for that! Thanks for offering so many handy and well-made products. I'll be back!

3-step ladderThis is the best small step ladder I've ever owned--lightweight, sturdy, and with a tall "grab-bar" for safety. One of my favorite things about this ladder that I haven't seen mentioned is that when it's collapsed for storage it will stand upright on its own.

Great PurchasePurchased 5-step Aluminium Ladder and was so very pleased. Is lightweight but feels very sturdy. Bought to replace recessed ceiling lights which I could not reach with smaller ladders and the extra top handrail is wonderful to give you the confidence to climb higher. I would definitely recommend this ladder and The Container Store.

5-step ladder is greatSo much easier to use than my old aluminum ladder. I wanted one that is lightweight and easy to close without smashing your fingers. This is it. Very easy to open and close and the steps are plenty wide. Very satisfied with this purchase. So much so, that I just ordered the 3-step ladder as well!

Trade in your old ladders!The best of the best. Wide steps, light weight and easy to handle. You feel secure and you can even lean on the front. I now have two of the five step ladder and one of the three step.
You won't be sorry...

Great Ladder, but BEWARE...This is a great ladder - it is light-weight and sturdy. It has one big flaw...plastic feet. They slide on wood floors. If you are standing on the ladder and pushing against something (e.g., cleaning a wall), the ladder will move under you, even with your weight on it. Scary. It works well on carpet, though.

Fantastic Ladder!I LOVE this ladder! It is so easy to climb and very secure/solid. I can reach to high areas in my house - even with 10 foot ceilings (and no help from hubby!) I especially like being able to reach high up into closets with the all the ELFA shelves I installed all the way to the top.

Extremely lightweightGot the 3 step ladder, and it's great. Can be easily moved around with one hand and folds up very easily into a small space. Top step is wide enough to balance on. Love it, great buy. Thinking of getting a second.

SO light and easy to carry aroundI love this ladder... finally a ladder with some height that I can carry around and use... it does cause some deceiving confidence... it is light, so you have to not get overly confident and stand on the top where you aren't mean to .... but nothing better for a house.. and i use it to reach the very top of my Elfa closet :-)

No longer ladder-phobicI bought this about a month ago, and I'm very pleased with it. It's lightweight, so I can carry it easily to wherever I need it.
For me, the best part is the long handrail. I don't like heights--and I particularly don't like climbing ladders. But I can HOLD ON when I must reach something on the top shelf or the planters at the top of my patio enclosure.
Very reasonably priced.

Great PurchaseI bought the 3-step ladder on sale. It's a great buy, so much better than the clunky ladder I had for years. This one is sleek, lightweight, doesn't take up much storage space, and I like the bar at the top too.

Ladder is a real step up!I am thrilled I finally took the plunge and purchased this terrific ladder. It's lightweight and eliminates the need for lugging a heavy ladder out just to change a light bulb. I have used the exact one at a friend's for years and recently purchased it for use at work and couldn't be happier. I wish I'd done it sooner. I measured the height of the top rung to the ceiling and found that it would work perfectly than the taller, heavier one I had been using for years. A+ all the way!

Great ladder for my pantryToo bad I did not buy this one first. Sturdy. Not real big. Perfect size. Easy to move around. Love the handle to hold on to for balance. If I had one wish it would be for rubber feet to protect the hardwood floors. I put felt squares on mine.

Well worth the investment!Being vertically challenged (at 5'4") I often have need for a ladder. I first purchased the 3-Step Ladder a few years ago when they were on sale. It is so lightweight and sturdy! The following year I bought the 5- Step Ladder. I keep one on each floor. A staple in our home; I highly recommend!

Instant Room expanderThis ladder makes hard to reach shelves reachable and gave me 40% more room instantly when I was creating a quiliting/sewing room. I now have rarely pulled down batting on very high shelf and made less often used stuff go up up up so that my frequently accessed objects are accessible! It folds up easily w/o pinching fingers and is a great addition to our former "library".

Fantastic functionalityI needed this ladder for work so being light and functional was key. This ladder is so easy to move around, fold up, and is the perfect height for my work.
I weigh about 255 lbs. and don't feel unsafe at all on the 5 step ladder. It's easy to hold on to and get up high. We have 10 ft. ceilings and I'm only 5'7", so this is by far the best I've found for indoor use. It's lightweight and can hang from the end of an Elfa Shelf.

What is the reach on the 5 step ladder?

The top step is 41-1/2'' from the floor. The overall reach will depend upon the person standing on the ladder.
