5Required Windowsill Dimensions for 2-story ladderMar 13, 2008
By OH-58 Pilot
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.

5Good solid escape ladderNov 16, 2007
By J. S. Hamilton
We tried this ladder and it works well. It is not pleasant crawling out a 2nd story window but this ladder performs well after you do. It's easy to deploy with a strap holding the rungs together until mounted. You open the big velcro strap to let them fall. The rubber feet seem less likely to damage the wall or cut through siding than the sharp metal standoffs on some other ladders. There was no warning about one-time use on this ladder so we practiced. This is critical to both test the function and become familiar with it before any emergency use. With some strap refolding I got it back into the strap and original box cleanly.

Very cheap protection against being trapped by a fire.

3Consider your window placement on the lower level 1stAug 15, 2007
By CMGarber
Once the owners manual was read it became clear this would not work on our colonial style home. The manual indicates the need for a flat surface with no windows or other obstructions under the window in which you would place the ladder. In our case, the 2nd story overhangs a foot or two from the 1st story, problem #1. There are also windows directly below the windows on the 2nd story, problem #2, which are an issue even if the house was flush/flat all the way down. The idea is the ladder needs a flat surface to rest against when climbing down. If it hits a window, it could break the glass and cause injuries. In a fire, I'd risk that, but with our overhang, we have the added issue of no flat surface to rest against meaning the ladder would dangle once you get out of the 2nd story window. The only other possible windows each have a "bay" window below which again won't allow a flush/flat surface to have the ladder rest upon. As far as the quality, it appears great. In my opinion, better than the other leading brand.

3Essential, but not easyMar 02, 2008
By J. Jackson "climaction"
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.
