Little Giant Ladders, King Kombo, Professional, 4 ft. A Frame, 7 Ft. Extension, Fiberglass, Type 1AA, 375 lbs weight rating, (13470-001)

re: Little Giant King Kombo 8ft I hunted and never found the ACTUAL dimensions (even on the manufacturer's web site ... shame on you folks!). Once unpacked I took a tape measure to it... In its "standard" V configuration the overall (vertical) height is: 7'6". So it WILL work/fit in an 8ft ceiling room. Fully extended (extension ladder style) it is 13'. It's quite light (like any well made, fiberglass ladder you might imagine) and very well built. It arrived in one large, rather abused box. Once unpacked the ladder was fine / no worse for wear. As described by the manufacturer, the pitch lever makes it trivial to use. That said, the lever is located near the top of the ladder (at the hinge point). So, vertically challenged people may find that part of the equation a bit difficult. YMMV. It is "HELLO! I'M GREEN!" Green in color.

Got this as we moved in to a new home just to have as our standard around the house ladder. Its great and sturdy and not much heavier than those really light silver ladders we usually have around the house. I like that it can turn in to an extension ladder if needed and can lean up in corners. I wish there was a way to disable the safety step, it gets quite annoying when going up and down alot, but I understand its reason.

An absolutely amazing ladder. I use several different ladders and stools for work. The bigger they get the heavier and less manageable they are to carry. So selecting the right one is important. This takes my jumbo step and nearly makes it obsolete. I can get higher, into more positions, and it is almost as easy to carry. I got the 4 foot because I needed it to fit inside my Ford Transit. Which it does standing or laying down. It also is easy to carry up and down flights of stairs which I do a lot. I also made this selection because of what other ladders I already own. It fills in the gap. For a general home use application, as your only ladder, I’d go for the six footer. It’s a nearly perfect ladder for the kind of things I need to do.

I got the 5 ft version and really like it. Very sturdy, quite light, leans against walls, corners and poles well, and in the extended mode let's me climb easily to a ten foot roof. I agonized between the 5ft and 6ft versions. Still somewhat conflicted but like the lightness and ease of use in the 5' version, which does more than you might expect. In fact for my uses it performs the functions of a 6 or 7 ft ladder.

My favorite ladder! Cannot stand regular ladders anymore! This is a must have for anyone!

Not to heavy to move around. Very easy to use as a long ladder just hit the buttons and swing it into position. Paint and tool pan are handy when it is folded. Also it can be used without extending the back side so it really has 3 positions. I bought this to make piainting the exterior of my house easier and it did exaclty that. The wider base made it more stable than my older ladders so I stayed with this one for the whole project. Safety First Always.

I cannot say enough good things about this ladder. It is solid, but it is not heavy and easy to move as needed and deploy. Having never had a ladder with them the "tool holders" at the top are more useful than I ever expected them to be.

Great ladder it’s saved me a good amount of time and trips down to the work van, only complaint is the palm buttons are trash that’s the only thing about this ladder it should come with a back up pair straight from manufacture. That design is a flaw big time but other then that it works like a charm

This is by far the most stable ladder I have ever used. I am comfortable climbing to the upper rungs, I don't have to stand on the lower rungs and stress my neck. It is expensive but worth the price.

Never have I used a ladder as good as this one I own the 4 step and the 6 and they are the best ones you can buy. The rotating wall pad is the best feature on this ladder and i use it all the time. Definitely makes the other crew jealous!

This is a great ladder and I paid dearly for it so I was disappointed that the Quad Pod accessory I purchased with it doesn't fit properly. You can see in the photos that the Pod hits the braces before the extension can lock closed into place. If I use the ladder against a wall when it's in the closed position the extension is not locked and kept out of the way which poses a safety issue. I will be trying to contact the manufacturer for a solution.
