Ladder Stabilizer, Heavy Duty Steel Ladder Roof Hook Ladder Stabilizer with Wing Span/Wall Extension Accessory, Secure and Stable Ladder Standoff Arms for Roof Gutter with Anti-Slip Rubber Feet

Now I can easily paint the trim on my house. I've painted several houses through the years. But now at 70 years old, standing on top of the extension ladder feels different. A little unsteady. This ladder stabilizer works great. Feels much more secure. And easier to paint trim, as it allows ladder to stand away, so I don't have to lean out. The product is well constructed, and easily assembled. Good powder-coat finish. The hardware supplied work well, even the nuts. I did add washers to protect finish. The only negative would be the rubber feet. Like most imported rubber, it marks the side of house. The marks will clean off. The positives way out number the one negative. I'd buy it again. $$ well spent!!

I was pleasantly surprised at the functionality, strength and adjustable fit of this ladder support. I use it to get on the roof and for gutter cleaning. Super stable and my roof lines are much higher than the standard house.

I would give 4 1/2 stars with the following PROs, CONs, & a tip:PRO: This brace works very well, I feel much steadier while using this brace to go up on my roof. It assembled and attached easily and removed from my ladder easily after use by removing the two "U" bolts, the unit lifts off and stays assembled for storage until next use. The paint seems to be good quality. Using the brace allows me to avoid damaging my rain gutters.CON: A minor issue is it should have included lockwashers (not just flat washers) to keep the bolts from loosening up while using the brace. I also had to be careful with threading the nuts onto the bolts for the first time - a little better machining would make it much easier to thread and not cross-thread.TIP: Get some lockwashers to keep the brace bolts from loosening up and use a socket & ratchet to speed up assembly. Also, ladder storage is tougher if you keep the brace attached because you can't retract the extension ladder. This is an FYI and only matters if you have limited space like I do. (I didn't remove any stars for this since I knew this would happen).Overall I recommend it because of the much-improved safety it provides.

It works really well. It genuinely stabilizes the ladder. I could tell a difference using it versus not using it. The only downside is that the nuts aren't locking nuts. I had this on the ladder rack on my truck, and it was a good thing I double checked it after driving to a couple of jobs. The vibrations caused the screws to loosen to the point where the U-bolts almost came off. If you do get this, which I would recommend for any DIYer or beginning handyman, do yourself a favor and get some locking nuts.

Simple,it works,not wide enough.

This stabilizer works very well. Built to last. Rock solid. It's amazing, the difference this makes as far as feeling stable and safe. Nice that it comes with tools too. I give it two thumbs up. 👍👍

Installed real easy and works great. Real strong and safe.

Game-changer for gutter cleaning/repair. I used to just use the ladder propped up against the gutter to get on my roof, but could never rely on that for most of my gently sloping yard. This rests on the shingles, with no contact on the gutter. It feels a lot more stable. Directions are okay, but assembly is simple. I'll have to check the nuts every now and then since they're not locking. Can't completely retract the ladder with it on, but that's just how these have to be.
