Rubbermaid 2-Step Ladder, Aluminum Lightweight Folding Step Stool with Project Top, Silver, Tested to US Safety Standards, No Assembly Required

Love this ladder! Highly recommend! It is very lightweight yet super sturdy. It folds nice and flat, so very easy to store. The flip up tray is invaluable. I can place things on there and then climb up or down the ladder safely using both hands. The flip up tray also works well as an intermediate staging area when rearranging things on a shelf high up. The wider platform for the top step is also wonderful. I can stand on that with both feet flat, leaning on the top handle, giving me good stability. This is the safest ladder I’ve used. I can tell a lot of thought went into designing it.

This review is for Rubbermaid 3-Step w/ Oversized Project Tray. I've been looking for a better step ladder to use around the house, and this looked to be the best of all the ones I could find. I've used this ladder multiple times over the near year that I have owned. I'm extremely happy with this ladder. It is very sturdy and amazingly light weight. I really like the project tray, as it is very useful for my projects. Overall, this is one of the best ladders that I have used.

Absolutely love this ladder. It’s lightweight for transporting and very sturdy. Perfect for indoor and outdoor use. We have 9ft ceilings and some higher elevations but the ladder helps make everything reachable. Easy to fold open/shut and has designated hardware to hold tools and paint cans.

I live on a farm in Florida and need to constantly be doing things outside which require a little bit more elevation to reach something. I have a steel 3-step ladder I bought at a local hardware store, it is heavy and a bit unstable due to the way the rear foot is constructed. The heavy weight makes it a drag to carry it around to do small jobs. The instability is also a problem. Finally I went looking for a replacement because I have a bunch of tasks to do this winter on our 5-acre farm. This ladder arrived and I wondered if it was actually in the box, the carton was so light weight. I opened it up and found this step ladder inside. This is a seriously great step ladder. I don't know the weight capacity, if you're 200 or more pounds this is probably too light duty but for average weight people it's a God send. Ultra light in weight, sturdy, easy to fold, convenient tray for tools and parts and a super reasonable price, all factors considered. Good ladders to you!

I couldn't find this in my local big box stores when I wanted it. It is the best three-step ladder for household use because it is sturdy, stable, and so light. It is easy to carry upstairs. It is easy to store, meaning you can use one hand to put it back on a wall hook. It has a little area on top for tools and screws. This ladder is the one—the perfect one—for indoor or even occasional outside duties.

The main reason that I ordered this Rubbermaid Step Stool is that the legs have rubber "feet" that do not slide on tile or porcelain floors. Many step stools do not offer the rubber grips on the legs. It has a very slight wobble -- one leg must be slightly out of alignment with the other three legs -- and I probably would not have noticed it had I not been so vigilant to check-it-over to be sure that I like it. I didn't spend a lot of time looking for the reason for the wobble because it was very slight. I also like the way that the first step is mounted on the legs. I plan to use it in the bedroom closet when I am placing sweater boxes and other items up on the top shelf. Because it is so lightweight, I do not think that I would recommend it for really tough projects that require a solid, heavy platform for safety.

Overall, the RMA-3 step ladder is a good product, but there's one thing about it that you should be aware of before purchasing. A couple of other reviewers have mentioned this issue, but I didn't see their reviews before I made my purchase. The locking mechanism that secures the ladder in its "deployed" position is a plastic latch that dangles VERY loosely on the underside of the 3rd step (the large plastic step which you stand on). This doesn't appear to affect the safety of the ladder while using it. When the ladder is deployed, the latch does catch the metal cross bar which supports the black plastic step. Because the latch is loose instead of tight, there will be some "play" on the 3rd step when you're not standing on it. But there doesn't seem to be a danger of the latch accidentally disengaging, so it appears to do its job. Here's what I like about this ladder: * Extremely lightweight and maneuverable * Despite the loose latch, it does feel secure * Perfect height for reaching smoke alarms and light fixtures on a 9 foot ceiling * Very compact when folded up * Folds and unfolds very easily I decided to keep the ladder because I don't believe the loose latch will be a safety issue. When standing on the 3rd step, the weight of the user will be applying downward force against the step and the supporting metal crossbar below, so there is no wobbling of the step while standing on it. And despite its looseness, the latch does appear to keep the 3rd step from disengaging from the cross bar unintentionally. You must apply light upward force on the latch for it to disengage.

I used this for many jobs around the house it is perfect height for most uses and is very light. The platform is steady and makes it easier to work from than ladder steps.

Only five pounds -- easy to lift and move. Collapses and fits in a snug space in my laundry room. Sturdy. No wiggling or tipping when I climb up on it. A handle to grab onto when climbing it and descending from it. I have only had it for a short time, but it has already been a blessing. So I would recommend it. It is more expensive than some others, but I believe the quality of it makes it worth a higher price. I expect to use it safely for years to come.

The ladder is extremely lightweight, perfect for everyday chores. Will definitely recommend it. It was a bit expensive but the quality and built is great so worth the money. Plus with its slim design, storing is very convenient, easy and tucks into small spaces.

Es una escalera ligera pero resistente, un poco más pequeña que su competidora de COSCO.

Very light and sturdy. High quality product.

This is great around the house and so light to carry. Easy set up, practical design and I feel safe using it. Sturdy and stable. Fast shipping too, very happy to have purchased this item.
