Fantastic Ladder - only issue for some people might be the weight...
I bought the Little Giant 22 ft ladder from Amazon during one of their Christmas sales during 2012. The price was fantastic (just under 200) and the ladder works great! We have pretty high ceilings and I've used it to easily replace ceiling can flood bulbs in the stairwell by just adjusting the legs on the ladder to different heights. I couldn't even put a ladder in the stairwell before, and even if I did my 8 ft step ladder wouldn't have reached the bulb. It's fairly easy and intuative to switch heights with the Rock Locks, as well as switch between an extension ladder vs. an A frame step ladder. The ladder feels very sturdy to me, and I'm a little over 200 lbs. I really think this is a very well made product and would not hesitate purchasing again ... although I think this will last my lifetime so I probably won't need to buy again...This ladder allows me to get rid of both my 8 ft step ladder as well as my extenstion ladder - and by mounting it on the wall with the Wall Rack I have gained a lot more storage space in my garage. I also bought the work platform to go with it, but I haven't used that yet.Some minor issues that may be major for others - the ladder is a bit heavy (approx 40 lbs). This might make it difficult for some people to move around the home. It isn't for me, but I could see it might be a problem for some. It does have rubber wheels on the bottom which make it easy to move over a flat, smooth surface however. When the ladder is in an extension mode, the treads are a bit small which isn't real comfortable to stand on for a long period of time. You can alleviate this by buying the work platform accessory, but I don't know how easy it is to use with this since I haven't used mine yet.If you can wait to buy the ladder, Amazon usually has this one sale during the Christmas season (Black Friday/Monday) as well as one of there specials during the remaining holiday season (when I bought mine). The specials will save you a significant amount of money.

Greatest Ladder Ever! But, There Are a Couple Things You Should Know
I am a handyman, so I use ladders on a regular basis and I gotta say, this is the most versatile, well built, user friendly, quality ladder I have ever owned! You can do so much more with this type of ladder. You've probably seen the commercials by now, so yes, it does all that. But there are a couple this I would like to point out. 1) First thing is weight. It weighs more than a typical 6' or even 8' 'A' frame fiberglass ladder. But what do you expect when you have a 17' foot extension ladder that folds down to a compact 5' tall? That's one of the beauties of this ladder, it folds down nice and neat. I still can carry it with one hand as I bring it in and out of the garage. For longer halls it has rollers, so you can just grab the top and roll it to the job like you are carrying a dolly. 2) When extended to the full 17' extension ladder, the pivot point seems a tad shaky when climbing up and down the middle. It is rated for 300 pounds, but I would be a VERY nervous if I were 300 pounds and using it as an extension ladder. I weigh 200 albeit dexterous pounds and feel a bit nervous the way it bends slightly in the middle. I would have taken a star off for this, but I'm thinking it is stronger than it feels. I am just a little more gentle and cautious when I'm in the middle section at full extension. So overall, the plus's way outweigh the minor minus's. I recommend this ladder in a heartbeat.

Compact, light, sturdy
The 12017, owned since May 2012, was a good choice for my specific needs. It is light, and lays flat in the back of my vehicle with one seat down and the tailgate closed. Fully extended, it lands above my second story windows. It feels solid when standing on it as a type 1A (300 pound) should.It is 14 rungs extended and 4 rungs stored (rungs are 12 inches on center). This wide range is possible because of the center hinge, and because the sections may be extended until only one rung is doubled (overlapped).The extension locks are easy to use. To release, one squeezes the bottom of the rocking lock lever toward the ladder rail until a ball detent retains the withdrawn lock pin against a spring. The ball detent is just right to hold against the spring, but weak enough to be released by smacking the top of the lever with one's palm. The end of the lock pin is beveled such that one can release the ball detent, then slide the rails until the rungs align enough for the lock pin to spring home. I usually align first, then smack, to reduce wear by the end of the hard steel lock pin rubbing on the aluminum inner ladder rail. I see no plastic parts in the extension locks.The design of the center hinge lock is even better because one does not have to smack it after releasing. One simply squeezes the knob toward the ladder rail until retained, then open or close the ladder until the lock pins spring home at the next lock angle (folded, step, or extension). The only plastic parts in the center hinge area are spacers riveted between aluminum plates.One of the compromises chosen to keep the weight low, and the storage size small, is lower rung tread depth. The treads are about 1-3/8 inches deep with hard edges. Standing on these in running shoes gets old faster than standing on my big 36 foot type 1A Werner which has rungs about 1-3/4 inches deep with rounded edges (but weighs 80 pounds). In the lower configurations, the 12017 has more rungs that are doubled by the overlap. The two rungs together give a tread depth of about 3-1/2 inches. One can stand on these all day.I peeled most of the vinyl stickers off, then waxed the rails with car wax. This allows easier adjusting, and reduces the risk of pinching one's fingers by lowering "stiction".If you're still reading, you're probably looking at the Werner MT-17 too. At the time of purchase, I cared about these 12017 advantages:1. Rung tread depth is about 1/4 inch more. This doesn't sound like much but one can feel it.2. Weight is about 6.2 pounds less. (I weighed both with a force gauge accurate to 0.1 pound.) It's obvious when one picks them up.3. The extension locks make using the ladder easier.In summary, the 12017 is a good choice if one wants compact storage and low weight in a good design that is well built. It's a 31.4 pound type 1A that goes from 4 to 14 rungs. It's just light enough that I'll grab it for step ladder use.

Fast shipping and excellent packaging. The Leatherman tool feels very premium and sturdy.
The Little Giant RevolutionXE Model 17 (12017), featuring LiteWave technology, is the lightest multi-use ladder on the market. LiteWave technology is used in many of the military's aircraft currently in development and makes the RevolutionXE 20 percent lighter than any comparable ladder. The RevolutionXE also includes several innovative new features: the MAG4 hinge for improved stability and the easy-to-use Rock Locks for quick adjustment. The RevolutionXE Model 17 can be used in 24 unique configurations, as an A-frame, extension, staircase and 90-degree ladder, and as a trestle-and-plank scaffolding system. The RevolutionXE's wide-flared legs and aerospace-grade aluminum construction provide an unmatched feeling of safety and stability. The Little Giant RevolutionXE is extra heavy duty rated Type IA - 300 lbs.
