Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert EL52-2 Two-Story 14-Foot Escape Ladder
Customer Review: Excellent and easy
Summary: 5 Stars
This escape ladder is great! It folds up nicely, and can be stored in its own box. My children, twins age 14, were able to practice fire drills, and easily fold it back up in the box. It is invaluable knowing my kids can get out safely from a second floor room. More over, the price made it very affordable.Customer Review: Three Story Ladder

I have not had the miss fortune of using the product. I say this becuause it is for one purpose, to use it as a fire escape option. I purchased this item using the free shipping method and arrive at my doorstep three days later. Great shopping experience!!!!!Customer Review: Ladder

I have not used this, and hopefully will not have to, but looks like a great product esp. for the priceCustomer Review: Required Windowsill Dimensions for 2-story ladder
Summary: 5 Stars
Consumers need to purchase the right ladder for their windowsill. I had to return the two-story ladder for a 3-story ladder because my windowsill depth was wider than the 2-story could accommodate. The EL52 First Alert Fire Escape Ladder user's manual says, "The window should be at least 20 inches (51 cm) wide and 32 inches (81 cm) high to give you enough clearance to exit safely. The windowsill width should be between a minimum of 6 inches (15 cm) and a maximum of 10 inches (25 cm). Measure windowsill from outside to inside." Be sure to get the right ladder for your windowsill depth.Customer Review: Essential, but not easy

I have taken this product out once and let my son practice with it. That went reasonably well, though without practice, it would be very hard to do this right in an emergency. Repacking the ladder was a huge hassle. The directions were very clear, but didn't seem to apply to the same ladder that I was handling. I finally got it repacked and placed it in my son's room, but the difficulty in packing makes me hesitate to practice again, even though I know that would be a good idea.
