Hey there, folks! So, there’s this recall happening for the Werner 20’ and 24’ Multi-Max Pro multi-purpose ladder. You know, the silver one with a blue top and label on the side rail that says ‘Werner MULTI MAX PRO’ and has the model number ALMP-20IAA or ALMP-24IAA. Oh, and don’t forget about the long black rope in the back section.
Apparently, you gotta stop using these ladders right away. Yup, they’re asking us to reach out to Werner for a full refund. Just register on their website and they’ll guide you on how to get rid of the ladder safely. Once you’ve done that, they’ll send you a check for the full refund.
Now, here’s the kicker – there have been 18 reported falls because of these ladders. Can you believe it? Fourteen of those falls resulted in injuries like bruises, cuts, head injuries, and even fractures to the wrist, leg, and ribs. Ouch!
So, where were these ladders sold, you might ask? Well, they were up for grabs at Home Depot stores all across the US and on their website from November 2021 through February 2024. And the price range? Anywhere from $200 to $281. Not exactly pocket change, huh?
Who’s behind this mess, you wonder? It’s the Werner Co., based in Itasca, Illinois, but these ladders were manufactured in China. The recall number you wanna keep in mind is 25-431.
So, there you have it, folks. If you’ve got one of these Werner ladders lying around, it’s time to say goodbye to it and get your money back. Stay safe out there!
