i prefer triples as they are easier to carry round the back and dont hit sat dishes !
i have a 3.0metre triple (mainly use just 2sections) and i have a 2.0metre triple which is featherlight and my main choice

We have many sets of ladders, probably 10 plus, however the main ones we use are Titan 3.4m and 3.9m (closed length) and there are a set of these on all the vans. We also have double pointers and a set of triples that extend to just over 10m!!!! (rarely used, but sometimes handy)
Not keen on ladder mitts, though again we have a couple of sets in the workshop gathering dust.

I use a 3 metre triple( 7,50 fully extended) combonation ladder light weight it has the cross bar footing. It can reach all 1st floor gutters and can remove in section to climb over a gate or fences.Its a thin light weight which I thought would not hold me, but its strong and I am a big fellow.
