SONGMICS Multi-Purpose Aluminium Ladder

Unless you’re a robber who regularly leaves a ladder at the scene of the crime for a quick getaway, you’re unlikely to buy more than 1-2 ladders in your lifetime. So you need to buy a good one, and we’ve found the only ladder you’ll ever need.

The Songmics ladder is made of super-strong heavy-duty aircraft-grade aluminium and has a max load capacity of 150kg. You’ll be a steady-Eddie when you’re high up due to the 2 bottom support bars and the anti-slip PVC pads that make the ladder stable on any ground.

It’s so multi-functional and can be set up into so many different positions and angles, we reckon the folks at Songmics must have taken their inspiration from the Karma Sutra. At full extension (steady!) it’s over four metres long. Use it as scaffold, a leaning ladder, a stepladder, make it tall or short – no matter your needs it will lock into position and it folds down small too, so you can just tuck it away in the corner of the garage or shed.

You need this ladder in your life. How else are you going to clean the outside of your those bedroom windows, or paint the lounge ceiling, or get that ball off the garage roof, or rescue a cat from a tree like a real hero?
