I think the Little Giant ladder systems are great and sturdy ladder for various tasks.
As for price, I think I want to raise a FYI.
The Lowe's product page titles the ladder as the "Leveler" type, which to me suggests that at least one pair of legs have individual ratcheting extensions/legs that help when using the ladder on uneven ground; essentially, Leveler system is supposed to balance out the ladder on uneven ground by extending one side of the ladder to get the ladder to be as upright as possible, to reduce risk of tipping over to either side.

However, when I go to the Lowes page, and also search the model number, Model # 16517-002, it shows that this is just the standard Little Giant ladder system (ie. no Leveler legs). So, for that, the price is decent enough. For an equivalent non-Leveler Little Giant ladder system at CostCo, the price is about $140-150 when on sale, as a reference.

If you are interested in a Little Giant ladder system, I would advise to get the Leveler system so that when you are faced with uneven ground, you can benefit from the Leveler system to upright the ladder as much as possible.

But who knows - maybe one could complain to Lowe's about incorrect title of the item upon pickup/receipt of the ladder, and get a free Leveler type Little Giant out of it for just $90. If that is possible, then for sure, $89 for a Leveler Little Giant is a great price.


*edit*
This is an example of the leveler system:

this is a taller ladder (by 4feet), but still, the leveler system is so useful.

*edit2*
maybe this is legit the leveler system, but just with the wrong model information?
Last year's BF/TG Lowe's sale also had what seems to be the same leveler system for $89

If this had the leveler legs I'd be all over this. I've got the 22' one and need one that's a little more compact and lightweight. These are heavy and can be difficult to maneuver but they're so useful in so many household applications.

Why is "leveler" in the name but the legs aren't adjustable like that? Is it just saying you can level it if one side of the A-frame needs to be longer than the other?

This is not the Leveler sku with wheels and adjustable legs. Lowes item description also confirms as such even though its incorrectly titled.

Link to actual Leveler ladder that's on sale for $129 through Dec 4th (you can use a 20 off 100 ebay coupon to bring it down to $109):

https://www.lowes.com/pd/Little-G...1000386349

This years Lowes BF ad also confirms that they're selling the Multi-17 model for $89, so this isnt a repeat of last year's Leveler deal.

Correct: Leveler is Lowe's SKU 935161. I cross-checked with the Little Giant website: -002 (the current deal item) is "Multi". Leveler is -803.

I also think this is only slick if you manage to get the 935161 item by complaining about the item description.

I really want one of these but I'm afraid I'm 50 pounds over the weight limit. Why dont they make these for big boys?!

I think these are good multipurpose ladders if you dont use them every day. Great home owner ladder. I just cant stand the setup time and hassle on them and would much prefer buying an extension ladder and an A-frame ladder separate. Takes a little more space but the ease of use to set it up and get going on your project is so much faster and more convenient. I've used these before and understand the place for them in this world but if you have the space for 2 separate ladders then I think a good A-frame and good extension ladder is the way to go. It wont take long for you to get tired of pulling pins and adjusting this thing. Some of these are heavy and awkward(not sure about the weight on this one).
It's pretty uncommon but I think the 7 ft A-frame ladder is the best universal size. Its tall enough for reaching taller ceilings but not so tall you cant get it around without hassle. Im really surprised they arent more common. Just one man's opinion. I use 2 ladders almost every day for work. (7ft A-Frame and 24ft extension) never really find myself in situations that those dont cover.

So if this does have the level system, what is the difference between this one and the 18 foot besides max reach and wheels?
