the pictures don't do justice to this item, which is incredibly well built out of sturdy materials.

doubles nicely at parties as something for people to sit on as well.

I purchased the red/orange step ladder and was surprised when I pulled it out of the box. It is an amazing color (picture the color and material of a car's tail light) and is quite attractive. I was pretty sure I would like it, but was somewhat daunted by the price. It is well worth it, however, because it's a high quality item AND I can now reach the upper shelves in my kitchen cabinets.

I really thought this looked cool and wanted it but the price scared me off. My friend surprised me with it for my birthday and after using it, I actually decided to buy another one for my sister.

It's kind of hard to tell from the picture, but this ladder is taller than your average step ladder as you can stand on the top step. The polycarbonate body is very rigid (I had been worried it might feel flimsy but this is definitely not the case). The steps all have kind of an alternating etched ridge design on them which looks cool and prevents slippage. But best of all (and I have the clear one) I can leave this open in my kitchen and it just disappears visually into the surroundings- much better than the white tubular metal one with black steps I had before.
