So, we got a 12-and-1/2-ft telescoping ladder here. Not really anything like it on the market. You've seen other items like this that telescope, but one unique feature that we have in our product here is the soft close uh uh rungs. So, when you go to close it, flip a couple buttons, it'll slowly come down, eliminating that pinch point, that opportunity to really slam your fingers in >> Can I hold it? Absolutely, please. Trust me, I won't drop it. I'm a painter. So, if you want to go 6 ft up, what you do, you've already got 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft. Grab it right there, raise it up, and now you eliminate that clump, and you still got your 6-ft ladder here. So, what if I want to just go down a foot? >> If you want to just go down, really easy, right? You've got these little yellow buttons here underneath. You just press them, and one set goes down. Or if you wanted to go two, you can you can go down a couple, you do the same thing. So, now if I just want to collapse it right now, the whole thing. >> if you want to collapse it, you've got these two yellow trigger buttons here on the inside. You just pop them both in, and that collapses the entire ladder. Do you have any idea how much this thing weighs? So, this guy is 33 lb. >> 33 lb. >> Yep. Non-slip rubber feet. >> Can I use it on like tile, hardwood? >> Absolutely. Tile, hardwood? >> On the back, we've got the non-marring feet as well, so you're not going to worry about scuffing up your walls, scuffing up the side of your house. We like it. So, this is something I do like right here, cuz the one that I was using 2 days ago was scratching the walls. You've got like these two feet right here, so that's actually pretty cool.
