I think I would rather have one that didn't break within the year, anyone got a quality one?

I got mine from maplins roughly a year ago and still going strong.

Ideal for gate hopping and the odd flat roof access :)

I have just bought the Extend & Climb pro 3.8m(they seem to be one of the better manufacturers) from Midland Ladders £150 delivered,not used them yet but they do seem to be well made and sturdy.

I have seen these and they do seem to have a good writeup.
However i may now not need them at all.

I have a garage that I rent and my van even without the roofrack (which is why I was looking at telescopic ladders) is 73" The garage door has a clearance of 69" so the van wont be going in there any time soon!
