Safe, Reliable, and Versatile
Have the right ladder for the job every time with the RevolutionXE multi-use ladder from Little Giant. This professional-grade ladder system features a convertible design that allows it to be used as an A-frame ladder, an extension ladder, a staircase ladder, a 90-degree ladder, or a trestle-and-plank scaffolding system. The aluminum construction and Quad-Lock hinge offer stability, while the Rock Lock makes it easy to adjust the length. The RevolutionXE is up to 20% lighter than the leading competitor, but has a 300-pound rating and is available in three different models that offer 24, 33, and 43 unique configurations.
Use the Ladder Five Different Ways
Thanks to its patented, convertible design, Little Giant's RevolutionXE ladder system can be used as an A-frame ladder, an extension ladder, a staircase ladder, a 90-degree ladder, and a trestle-and-plank scaffolding system. It helps you get to hard to reach areas, such as vaulted ceilings and the space above the staircase. You can also use the RevolutionXE over and around obstacles where ordinary ladders never fit.
Safety & Comfort
The RevolutionXE has wider rungs than comparable multi-use ladders. The wide rungs reduce fatigue and foot pain and increase your stability and balance while working on the ladder. For added safety, deep treads increase traction while climbing. For optimal safety and stability, the RevolutionXE features wide-flared legs. Little Giant's signature Quad-Lock hinge has four pins to lock safely into place.
Rock Lock System for Fast Adjustments
The RevolutionXE also contains a Rock Lock system that allows you to adjust the length and configuration of the ladder much more quickly and with less effort, helping to avoid pinched fingers. Simply push the lock to release it, adjust the ladder, then tap it to relock it.
Sturdy & Safe Aluminum Construction
The RevolutionXE is made of lightweight, aerospace-grade aluminum and is rated to hold up to 300 pounds on both sides. This meets or exceeds all applicable Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards for product quality and safety.
Tip & Glide Wheels
Easily transport the RevolutionXE using tip & glide wheels—rather than carrying your ladder from storage to the job and back, you can simply wheel it from place to place. The lightweight RevolutionXE is much easier to transport as compared to other ladders of its size.

Before my purchase, I was worried about weight and being able to manage the different configurations alone. Here are my findings. First of all, I resisted buying the previous version Little Giant because a relative has one and can't manage the weight alone. When I saw the ad for the Xtreme which is about half the weight of the other I was instantly on the phone. I hate my old ladders. They are light weight but feel so flimsy I'd gotten to not wanting to use them at all. They may be light, but I'm not anymore and I just didn't feel safe on them. The alternative was waiting for my son to come change the overhead light in my tall garage ceiling or outside house lights while I stumbled around in the dark, or some other such project. I've always done such things myself and although I'm willing to scale back (will be 70 next year), I am not ready to give up :).
Although the ladder is heavier than standard aluminum ones, it's not much heavier than a bag of dog food and I can manage it. I can't whip it into different positions like the infomercial people, but after watching the DVD a couple of times to understand the process, I can do it alone, including all the way tall. I was worried about getting my fingers pinched, but it functions like a well-oiled machine and a little care has been enough to keep my parts safe. It doesn't take much strength to switch its positions and it's very obvious when the adjustments snap into place (I still double check to be sure). I can carry it up the stairs into the house and back, and around the property.
One thing I appreciate is that because it is so sturdy, it doesn't need to be babied and I don't. I've purchased several accessories and am waiting for my next batch to arrive. So far all have been useful and have enhanced the ladder's usefulness for me. I feel safe and secure using it and now only need this one ladder for all my different needs. Highly recommended.

The pictures here on Amazon are not current. I have added my own pics (see above) to show you what's new! This ladder has actually been improved. The Rock Locks, MAG4 hinges are now made of metal.
NOTE - This review can only speak for the Little Giant 12017 RevolutionXE 300-Pound Duty Rating Multi-Use Ladder, 17-Foot. I cannot confirm if these improvements are on the other RevolutionXE models but would assume they are since it is the same product line, only size is the difference.
#1 - The orange plastic has gone bye bye! That alone makes it worth purchasing but wait...there's more!
#2 - This newer version also comes with wheels on the end to make it easy to move around the work area and the wheels are better placed.
#3 - Definitely lighter than previous versions! Much easier to use inside the house or on job site!
#4 - If you loved the scaffolding feature or are interested in it, you will be glad to know this has been improved! The older versions had you remove the outer ladder, then just lean those two separate pieces into an 'A' position and slightly lock them into place (NO! It did not really lock safely into that position!), then you would place your scaffold plank between that and the inner ladder. The inner ladder would safely lock into the A position. On the whole, this was not very safe and many people complained about that! Well, Little Giant must have been listening because they have included TRESTLE BRACKETS. These brackets allow the inner ladder to now lock safely into the A position!
This ladder comes with a color pamphlet explaining the basic uses and positions. Little Giant has also included a very well done DVD that will teach you how to use this ladder, step by step, walking you through the various positions and offering safety tips too.
This ladder is lighter than all previous models, coming in at around 35 pounds, yet, it is just as sturdy and solidly built! Little Giant continues to make an impressive, high quality product! This is not my first Little Giant 'A type' ladder. I have owned 4 different versions over the past 8 years. The RevolutionXE seems to be the best so far. I really did not think they could make it better, but they did.
I have included pictures to show the new items and improvements. Make sure you get this newer model if you order one! My advice is to wait for this to go on sale. Here at Amazon it sells for $299 but the price does drop! I got mine for around $230 (no tax, free shipping)!!! If you are not in a rush, wait for a sale!

The ceiling above my stairway had been peeling for some time, but until I bought this ladder, I had no good way to get to it. I considered several articulating ladders (particularly the Werner) before I settled on the Little Giant, but I've never looked back. This product is carefully thought out, well made and does what it claims to do better than the others I saw. My ceiling is now freshly painted and I moved on to a bedroom ceiling, splitting the ladder into two trestles and using a long board between them for scaffolding. Worked perfectly and made the job a pleasure (if that's possible). Once I'd swallowed the hook on the ladder (17 foot Revolution XE), I ordered nearly all the accessories (step, tool tray, fuel tank, leg leveler extensions and stand-off) and have been just as pleased with them. Yes, it was all ridiculously expensive, but I rationalize that I saved hundreds of dollars doing the jobs myself so it all works out. I like the 17 foot size and was glad I didn't settle on the 13, which I waffled over for some time. The 17 is just more versatile. It is a little heavy, as others have noted, but it earns its keep. Having used it, though, I am definitely glad I didn't go for one of the longer versions, as they would be too heavy for me to handle comfortably. And for my homeowner use, the heavy duty version would definitely have been overkill, just making the ladder heavier and for no good reason as it is already rock solid. Overall, one of the most satisfactory tools I've bought in my tool obsessed life.
