As above. I’ve been using a lightweight B&q stand-off but it feels unsafe. Anyone recommend something better? ???

Microlite
-
The ones with layflat wheels that roofers use are the best, about £80
Very stable and safe

I'll second that. Use to rest them on the roof tiles and work from above the guttering, very good kit. Mine is buried in the garage somewhere, redundant now as only do windows, that's enough :)

Anyone know the trade-name for these so I can do a search online.?

You wouldn't want to keep them on the top of your ladders for too long as it makes the ladder top heavy, but for guttering or roofing jobs it's ideal. Think I paid £90 for mine several years ago. Can'rt believe they are £188 now

Yep they're great, use with the ankalad and working at height is a pleasure.

That's a copy of the micro lite what you find is the black wheel part comes away from the yellow part ! microlite more expensive but the wheel is one piece

Yes, Midland ladders used to call them Microlites ! Hence slightly conned in buying one from them, had problems with wheels contacted them, no use ,spoke to Microlite they explained what Midlands was doing... If I was you I would pay more and buy the actual microlite

Seems like an expensive set of wheels on the microlight @£88 of a difference. Surely they would be replaced within the year if they failed?
-
Wonder if there's a weight difference?
