only fo use on domestic work as no hand rail etc.

the feet width is 910mm. thats gonna be tight in some stairwells. can't beat a ladder and plank, easy to move out the way, set it at any height and cheap.

As above I use one of these for high ceilings but can't generally fit it easily on stairwell as there is not much room to climb up and down either side,good old ladder and plank is better.

Ladder + plank is cheaper and safer ,those things and the multi fold ladders etc are death traps.

Not for stairs though, but they are fantastic for 9 foot and higher ceilings and they push through a door fully set up, really well engineered too and a doddle to set up.

I have customised mine by chopping off useless safety hooks that are totaly redundant anyway, and I took the plastic stoppers out of the uprights so I can put my hammer corner trowel and brush in each one.

They aint cheap but me and a mate went halves on one and swap it between us, as and when we need it.

In my opinion, if you have to do high ceilings it is an essential tool.

I bought tressles n planks for jobs and think thats enough.
Still I would buy a proper scaff system but there expensive.

seeing as i wrote something alot of you agree with, can someone please give me some f**k**g karma!!

The one i had nicked cost £700 for the base and another £1100 for the extension kit and stabilisers to take me to 5 m high. I used to use for exterior painting ,rendering,rolling scaffold for big areas etc.
But if i ever need one i just hire one in as i aint got the room for big kit cus of all the clutter ive got in my unit over the years.
