When doing things around the house, I go with fiberglass ladders from Werner. I also check that the ladder can hold my weight and all the junk I'm carrying
I also always go with fiberglass ladders from Werner casuse they feel sturdy and have good weight ratings. I'd rather carry a little extra weight than worry about the ladder wobbling while I'm cleaning gutters.
I learned not to skimp on ladders after one shaky moment. A sturdy ladder with good footing makes a big difference when you’re staying up longer than planned.
