Hi,
I am just getting into this business and have recently placed two orders with Midland Ladders.
Ordered in the morning and they arrived in the morning the following day, can't really beat that.

Their prices seem good too compared with other traders. One of the ladders that I bought was the Titan Classic 3.5m Triple which came with the yellow articulated feet which look like they will give far more support than without them. Though I must say that the bracketry could be a little bit more robust in construction particularly being aluminium and when compared to the size of the ladder stiles at the base. If you don't like them you can easily remove them.

I have'nt yet had chance to use the ladder in earnest as yet but it looks and feels top notch, all three sections can be easily removed and it came with fitted devices which lock the ladder stiles which is great for transporting and carrying the ladder.

The only downer was that the ladder didn't come with any protective packaging and as a consequence got a bit knocked about and two of the rungs got a bit of a ding. Couldn't be bothered to send it back as it does'nt look structural in any way.

i liked them apart from when they slipped on a green flag, laddering out of stones on a slope the ladder reset when at the top,laddering of grass slopes
