The MightyLite is significantly lighter than any comparable traditional stepladder, only 18 lbs. The design helps to prevent users from standing on the top rung, the most common cause of severe stepladder falls. Its patented-pending Ground Cue prevents injuries by signaling the user when it is safe to dismount the ladder. The no-pinch platform design opens easily from a slim 5 In. storage profile and offers wide comfortable treads on each rung, with a very spacious, comfortable standing deck. Its innovative top cap allows to you keep all of your tools close at hand, so no more trips up and down the ladder for tools or hardware.
