do you lot think one of these is an essential bit of kit?
 they seem quite expensive and trying to keep costs down as still putting my round together.

never used a safety base before.

But im now thinking about getting some 'safety feet'

I have used a standoff/microlite before. they give a bit of extra stability, but i only use a standoff for gutter cleans, and 1st floor bay windows because i am a short arse  ;D

Try looking at Ladder M8rix, recommend the Pro version.

if you want something for additional safety i would get some ladder safety feet the suction type you can get them from  www.ladderman.co.uk    under accessories used them for years found them great i also bought a rojak ladder stop but never use it

i use the rojak ladderstopper and its also great for stopping your bucket of water from sliding about in car/van!i wouldnt use it on gravel or wet decking though.extension pole for that.does come in handy and adds a bit of extra safety!
price higher/work harder!
