Telesteps ladders extend to a height of 12.5 feet and collapse down to fit in a bag that is only 30 inches long. The Telesteps ladder is much easier to transport than a traditional 16-foot extension ladder and will fit in the trunk of a car. Many people have attested to the usefulness and durability of the Telesteps ladder. There are several companies that produce telescoping ladders, but Telesteps is the most well-known brand.

On the Other: Do they really last?

One handyman who used this ladder in his professional capacity complained that the ladder was not very durable. He lauded the convenience and practicality of the ladder, but noted that, after one year, it fell apart. He bought another Telesteps ladder and had the same complaint that the ladder lasted for only one year.

Bottom Line

The Telesteps ladder is a great option as far as convenience and short-term durability are concerned. It has problems in long-term dependability when used every day. You have to decide how you are using the ladder: simply for occasional home repair or for an everyday business? With this in mind, you have to decide when the ladder, which costs $250, has paid for itself. It has a shorter life expectancy than a traditional extension ladder, but is certainly much easier to store, set up and lug around.
