Little Giant v. Werner

Blueface · 08-19-2010, 03:20 PM

Curious what you guys think.

I have been wanting to get a 22' one.
Home Depot has the Werner, as does Lowes, but they have it for $149.
The comparable Little Giant is $219, at the best price I have found, on QVC.
Add shipping an you are up to around $250.
Is there that much of a difference worth the $100 for the Little Giant?

been considering this myself...if you go to any home/garden shows they usually have a display on the little giant and all the accesories that you can get with it...i like it although have not yet pulled the trigger...also Sam's club has em for under $ 200

No Sam's Club by me that I am aware of.
I have a membership to BJ's. Not sure if they have it but will check it out.

There seems to be clear differences between the two ladders.
Werner seems to be about 10 lbs. heavier for the same/comparable ladder as Little Giant.
LG has many more accessories.

As far as load capacity, both are the same at 300 lbs.
Both extend to the same length of 19' for the 22' model, heck if that makes any sense to me. Why not call it a 19'?
I am not sure at all if LG has more position settings than Werner. LG claims 31 positions while Werner makes no mention that I can find.

Would love if anyone that has one or the other could share their thoughts.
