No misinformation or ordering issues. The product is of much better quality than those I have found in the typical "Do It Yourself" home improvement stores. (Marc)

Great set of attic stairs December 29, 2008
Ron Offer (Silver Spring, MD USA)

I own the 25" x 54" version of this product and am very happy with it. A couple of differences from your around the corner building supplies store's version:
- the door is thicker and better insulated to prevent drafts from coming into the house and there is a gasket seal to further close things off.
- the stair treads are not as deep, which allowed my contractor to put an insulated door over the top of the stairs (in the attic) futher sealing the attic from my home. This feature is great for insulating your home, but for people with big feet could be a problem going up the stairs.
- On the other hand, the stairs are stronger than standard and are rated for 350 lbs., a plus for larger people with heavy items to carry up to the attic.
- the handrail is a good idea and really does help, especially in light of the small ladder treads.
- the stairs are adjustable up and down against the 'attic door' part, which allows some adjustability of the ladder should their be a change in height required. This would come in handy if you cut the ladder to match your carpeted floor and then later remove the carpeting.
- The fininshed look of these stairs is much nicer than standard attic stairs. There is no string hanging down in our hallway, and no trim around the door, just a nice clean line around the door and it is all painted the same color as our ceiling. Then there is a small round 'keyhole' were a metal rod gets put in to twist open the catch and down come the stairs on springs. The wife loves it!
As a footnote, we went with the 25" x 54" version instead of the 30" x 54" version b/c of the doubling in shipping costs for the larger version. This is due to the size limitation that UPS/FedEx impose. But the size turned out to be fine and we haven't missed the additional 5" in width and I doubt the 22" is much different either.
Finally, the additional space and easy access to it is a great plus for storing all sorts of stuff - a great small project to improve your home. And we added lots of insulation (blown fiberglass insulation, fire proof foam and flashing/rigid insulation to seal off areas around the chimney hole and above our exposed return vents), which apparently allows you to recoup the costs of the improvement due to heating/cooling savings within 3 years. We already feel the difference on our top floor and the heating unit seems to be running less often.
