Requirements breached
The feet of the ladder may easily detach. Moreover, the ladder is not sufficiently resistant to load, which may cause it to break. Finally, the tread spacing and the distance between the platform and the knee rail are too small. This may cause the user to fall and suffer injuries. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 131.
