clee..

buy a reasonable quality 1 - cheapo's dont last,  and it's embarrassing when they break and you fall over :P

i use a 5 step  -  this gets me head/shoulders over the front edge of most cons.

just google ladders -  i think midland ladders is where i got mine for around £40.00 - been using 8 months with no probs

I wonder if it's really a step ladder that you need?

Have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCUoj4PULqc

Maybe a double or triple might suit you better.
