Unless you’re gifted with the physical abilities of an NBA center, there’s a good chance you’re going to need a step ladder to do a lot of your household chores. We understand and sympathize with anyone who is a little vertically challenged. Of course, one doesn’t even have to be considered short to require the use of a step ladder, so this shouldn’t be taken as a slight. Whether you’re reaching for something from the top shelf or tightening a light fixture on the ceiling, there is no shortage of uses for the versatile and compact step ladder. If you’re looking for a little height enhancement, well you’ve come to the right place. We look at some of the best step ladders for everyday use, so that you’ll never have to stand on a chair — or your tippy-toes — ever again. You can thank us for your medical bills, or lack thereof, later.
