Werner has voluntarily recalled about 78,000 aluminum telescoping ladders due to the risk of failure. The recalled ladders reportedly have defects that can cause them to break while they are in use. The Werner ladder recall affects multi-purpose aluminum telescoping ladders that were sold at Home Depot and Lowe’s stores across the U.S. from April 2018 to May 2018.

Okay, besides the very relevant PSA, thank you Bryce, did anyone note the fact they sold 78,000 ladders over two months thru two vendors? Holy cow, we are some ladder eating people!

And the good news is only 77,000 of them are for inspectors starting a business to compete with us :slight_smile:
