First Alert Two-Story Fire Escape Ladder, 14 Feet, Steel, Anti-Slip, Black

Seems to be of high quality, hope we never need to use to find out, but better to have and not worry than to have an emergency and no way out, small price to pay for piece of mind. Seems sturdy and simple to use, a bit heavy of course, but you should expect that with metal rungs

This review is only covering the arrival and inspection of the quality of the merchandise. This ladder appears to be well made. The components seem to be uniformly attached and none seem to be showing lack of attention in their production. Of course, the actual use in its intended function is, thankfully, not available. This price is quite market sensible and the delivery had no issues. It is rated at 350lbs, so it could actually have two children use it at once if necessary. It is not complicated, but family practice would certainly help in a real fire.

Feels well built and sturdy. I placed them in 2 of our 2 story upstairs bedrooms. I pray we never have to use them but glad to have them in case that we do.

Hope I never have to use it. Make sure you put it together in preparation for any emergency. It is very compact and simple. Can’t speak to its durability yet but I haven't broken it. A little costly but after research probably the best value for the money.

Built well

I live in a very remote area and have a full basement so two thirds of my house are about 10 ft up of the ground. We needed something sturdy, simple, and reliable to use in case of a fire. This is it. It is super easy to use, really sturdy, light enough for my 13 yr old niece to install, and long enough to get out of the second story window ( which is about 15 ft of the ground). I feel much safer having this in my house.

It’s something I’ve wanted but hope will never use. At our ages, there is no way we could get onto and down from the roof should we be upstairs and a fire broke out. This brings peace of mind. Came quickly and First Alert is an experienced and trusted supplier of safety products.

Hopefully I never need to use it! But its well made and well packed!

These look super easy to use if I ever need to

Wanted one that had steps that would not turn while walking down. Also wanted stand offs to make it easier to grip ladder and go down without your feet hitting off the side of the house. Get the right one! Well made.

Very happy with this purchase. Great quality.

Compact for easy storage and to be close at hand when needed. Simple to operate - the hook designs anticipate a variety of balcony configurations - including a slightly strange one we have - a brick wall that was increased in height by the addition of a railing - this product is able to be fitted between the railing and the brick due to the flexible link between the hooks - if this link was more rigid it wouldn't work so well for us. The simple velcro release to deploy the ladder looks like it will work well. CONS: instructions warn about deploying because repacking is tricky - therefore, we can't get a really good look at how it will work until we actually use it.

very difficult to review these as they are something you buy and hope never to use. However, I have done extensive research on the internet, and these are widely seen as one of the best available.
