Review: Step up to the "Flip'n Lite" - This ladder is an excellent step ladder from Little Giant. I have been the proud owner of a monster Type 1A Model 26 for the better part of at least 10 years and have used it for everything. Everything including jobs that don't require anything more that the minimum size of 6' in height. Anything less than that & I just went with a footstool or a chair or my tippy-toes... needless to say, that isn't the safest or most efficient way to get the work done. I was getting ready to buy a Little Giant "Little Jumbo" 3 foot step ladder => Little Giant 10310B Safety Stepladder with Bar and Tray, 3-Step but, I wasn't buying immediately and for some reason, & then I found this less expensive solution. I know the quality of Little Giant ladders from being a long time owner and was not about to hesitate buying the "Flip'n Lite" version of their step ladder. First of all, this ladder is lighter weight PLUS it is rated to hold the same weight of it's larger sibling which means I don't have to think twice when interchanging the two... in other words, it's a strong ladder despite it's light weight. It is almost a full 10 pounds lighter than the "Little Jumbo" and the extra features on the "Little Jumbo" weren't as attractive as the lighter weight. So, I decided to buy this ladder once desertcart had it in stock. I was ready to buy and sure enough... they had a waiting period for delivery and that means I could put it off again and stick with my other methods of getting the job done until they got more stock in. Once it showed up as available, I made the purchase immediately. The ladder showed up in the manufacturer's packaging and it too was impressive. The box was sturdy and secure... it even came with a set of 8 perforated handles built into the box to make the delivery less cumbersome because it does happen to be a fairly large and awkward box otherwise. Inside the box was the "Flip'n Lite" Step Ladder encased inside a thick clear plastic shrink wrap with display advertisements and instructions included. It was packaged to be delivered in showroom shape, perfect! Once I opened the box and had some time to use the ladder, it has been smooth sailing. I have been able to move more quickly from job to job because of the lighter weight and smaller dimensions and most importantly, I know I always have my feet on solid footing. This makes any work I'm doing much more rewarding. The mechanism to open and close the "Flip'n Lite" is fairly straightforward. It is not a ladder I can toss around like my Model 26, but for the work I will be using it for, there should be no need for that. I can really appreciate the effortless feel of using this step ladder over the Model 26. That will make my life much more efficient as I won't be groaning about breaking out the Model 26. One nice thing I found about owning this second Little Giant ladder is that I now really appreciate this one even more so than the Model 26, just because I had no idea how the Model 26 was going to hold up over the years. Since I have tons of experience under my belt with the Model 26, I know that just from using the "Flip'n Lite" for less than 2 full days... it is another winner! Well worth the investment. If you need a decent step ladder, I highly recommend the "Flip'n Lite" from Little Giant and of course desertcart proves once again why they are the World's Biggest & Best online retailer. "(^^)" Review: Love it! -Smart- design, very easy to use, strong and light. Lift handle, self-folds smoothly, completely. Rare 5-star rating! - I typically give only four stars for a top review, reserving the fifth star for those things that really impress me as well above my expectations. This lil ladder gets five stars. My wife and I really like this thing. I was surprised by how inexpensive this was. It's from a highly-rated company though, so we decided to get it. The design, three steps plus a nice high support(with a deep tray), was what I felt would be best, as opposed to a full ladder, steps to the top. She and I both like this format better, we used a 'regular' ladder when we painted the bedroom, and this one's a much better tool. We just finished painting the front room, and it's easier for us old folks to lean on a ladder made like this. It's SOLID. There's not even a little wobble. I weigh ~270lb., so wanted to be sure our ladder was strong and solidly built. Neither of us is as steady as we used to be, so we really appreciate how steady this thing is. It's light, I was really surprised by that. There's a handle on the back of the(big!) third/top step, and when you lift that handle, the ladder folds up smoothly, completely and easily. I've used ladders, big and small, for years, for a lot of reasons and jobs, from painting to firefighting. This is, IMNSHO, the lightest, easiest to handle and use, best designed and made ladder I've used. All that and what I think is a very reasonable price. We're impressed. I think you'll be impressed too. Neither the ol' lady or I work for or are compensated by desertcart or the maker of this ladder. I do these reviews because I appreciate (most of)the reviews here from other folks, and I want to help the next guy too. I'd love to get free stuff to review like some folks, but we buy ours, and I'll tell it like I see it, good/bad/other. YMMV, IANAL, IMNSHO this is a damn fine tool, a great ladder for a great price. What's not to love? ;) ## Features - SMALL LADDER WITH A HUGE PLATFORM FOR STABILITY: The Flip-N-Lite Little Giant step ladder features a huge standing platform, giving you a firm and comfortable footing on the top step and ensuring you feel balanced and secure at any height - STRONG- FOLDABLE LADDER W/ TOOL TRAY: This high-quality 3 step ladder, made from robust high-strength aluminum, features a large tool tray perfect for screws, nuts, bolts, and more.

The 5' ladder top platform is 34" from the ground. **Q: Do the legs have "rubber feet" or "hard plastic". Thank you.** A: Sandy, the feet are a hard rubber/vinyl so it conforms to the surface that it is on. You can very secure about being on the ladder. I use it on a highly polished wooden floor and this adheres. I have even put it on a slightly slanted floor and it worked beautifully. **Q: This Q & A is very confusing because questions about the 5' ladder are answered with information about the 6' ladder. The height of the top step is clearly not 44 or 45" on the 5' ladder. Also, the weight is not clear. The product info on the site says 12 lbs, but the video says 10 lbs. So can somebody give a clear …** A: Little Giant makes 3 heights of Flip-N-Lite Ladders. 4 ft, 5ft, 6ft. The webpage comparing them is at https://www.littlegiantladder.com/collections/ladders/products/flip-n-lite?variant=287870713869. The 6 ft is 14 lbs. The 5ft. is 12 lbs. **Q: Why is the 5 ft $20 cheaper that the 4 ft?** A: Have no idea. Our 5 ft is perfect. Little Giant could best answer that. One thought s that 4ft may sell better because of a more convenient closet storage. Ours is stored at bottom of ground floor steps. We have ceiling-high kitchen cabinets, but always had a 3 step step-stool,which slides beside refrigerator. The 5 ft is just great for jobs around house and the balance safety it affords. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Step up to the "Flip'n Lite" *by L***N on October 5, 2012* This ladder is an excellent step ladder from Little Giant.

What's not to love? ;) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This one is a KEEPER *by J***Y on March 19, 2012* How often does anyone find the right ladder, or any product, that is everything the manufacturer claims it is as well as everything you want it to be? In my experience, hardly ever. Well, stop the press, call off the dogs, and prepare to be pleasantly surprised. IMHO the Flip-N-Lite 5-foot ladder from Little Giant is the exception to all those other products that may come close, but never quite measure up to the manufacturers' hype or the customers' expectations. When the Flip-N-Lite ladder arrived, my wife lost track of how many times she heard me use the word, WOW! This is the ladder I have been hoping to find for a long time. However, it was only a month earlier when I purchased the Polder Ultra light Aluminum 3-Step Ladder thinking it was the ladder that would best meet my needs. I had been looking for a light weight, easy to use & store ladder for use mainly inside the house for all those times when there is a need to reach an upper closet/cabinet shelf or reset a clock high on the wall or do a little wall/ceiling painting. The Polder Ultra light ladder seemed to fit my needs. While it is a very nice ladder that I intend to keep, I began to wish it could do more, such as get me a little higher up and offer a slightly more secure feeling when there. After doing more research on Amazon & other sites, it began looking like maybe the 5-Foot Flip-N-Lite from Little Giant would give me what I was looking for, and boy did it ever! Here is what I like about it. (1) The aluminum frame is smooth and well finished. There is NOT a rough edge or jagged part on this ladder that could catch your hand or inflict an injury, making it a pleasure to handle. (2) The ladder is rock-solid secure, boasting a Type IA, 300 lbs. load limit. When you are on the top step (a textured platform measuring approximately 12" deep x 13" wide) you are 2'-9" above the floor, and you feel very safe. Adding to your sense of security is the fact that the sides of this ladder extend another 25" above the top step. This allows you to "lean in" against the top bar, thus giving you great stability while freeing up both hands for the job. (3) The orange colored top bar of the ladder also happens to be a convenient 3" W x 12" L x 1" D tray for holding small tools, brushes, or rags. (4) When opening the ladder the top step latches onto a bar across the back of the ladder with a loud CLICK that lets you know the ladder is fully & securely opened & locked. Pull the orange handle to release the step when ready to close the ladder. (5) At just 10.5 lbs. the ladder is easy to carry around with one hand. (6) At its folded height of 63" it easily fits into the back of my Toyota RAV4 when the passenger seat is collapsed or easily stores away under a bed frame or in a clothes closet. In summary, this ladder is well designed & well made. Its size, weight, durability, and handling features make it just the right ladder for all kinds of chores both inside and outside the house. Yes it is made in China, but is "designed and engineered in the USA," says Little Giant. Yes I would recommend it. Yes I would buy another if anything happens to mine. Yes this is a great product at an affordable price. The only thing left to say is, WOW! ## Frequently Bought Together - Little Giant Ladder Systems Flip-N-Lite, 5-Foot, Stepladder, Aluminum, Type 1A, 300 lbs Rated (15273-001) - Wooden Display Easel with Height-Adjustable Pegs, 60 inches Tall - Black - Reynolds Cut-Rite Wax Paper, 75 Square Foot Roll --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4944093-little-giant-flip-n-lite-5-ft-aluminum-stepladder-15273](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4944093-little-giant-flip-n-lite-5-ft-aluminum-stepladder-15273) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
