Little Giant 17’ Ladder with Air Deck Price: $149.99 Shipping Options:: $5 Standard Shipping Estimates: Ships in 3-5 business days. (Tuesday, Aug 16 to Friday, Aug 19) + transit Condition: Refurbished
I’m not too sure about this deal. Lowes currently has the most excellent and well-vetted Werner version of this type of ladder, of the same size at 17’, for the same price of $149 new and in store.
Per the Features: Note: A refurbished ladder is generally a ladder that has been used for sales demonstration purposes and no longer qualify as being new. The ladder that may have scratches to the surface of the aluminum or to a label that prevent it from being sold as new. Refurbished ladders meet the same high quality standards as new ladders. Refurbished ladders carry a 1 year manufacturer’s warranty.
I agree that the “deal” is that you are paying less for the Little Giant brand name; there are other ladders out there for less.
The comparable werner ladder (no “airdeck”) is $139 at Home Depot. Home Depot also has the 22’ version of the Werner, which I think gives a lot more versatility (although slightly less portability) - that’s 169 at Home Depot and probably comparably priced at Lowes.
I’m sad I missed this before and grew impatient and got the $99 HF version (on sale). I really like the idea of the air deck and handle since I almost fell off the top of one of these once. I certainly don’t need 2 though.
Thank you for your post. I was about to get this - because I checked with Amazon and yes - this is a great price for ‘this’ ladder. But I looked up the Werner ladder at HomeDepot - and it’s indeed $169 and telescopes to 22’. So - thanks! I appreciate your post!
I bought one last time they were offered after working with our contractor and loving his little Giant ladders.
If anyone is curious, I love mine and was worried about the “refurbished” part. After some research I thought it would be fine. When it came it was basically brand new with a “certified demo” sticker on the inside, but otherwise looked brand new and was spotless.
Hope that helps anyone on the fence.
Edit: forgot to mention, it was 132 on here without the air deck
