Dangers found :
Several steps may stack on the ladder, creating uneven distances between the steps. The user could make a misstep, lose balance and fall off the ladder and suffer injuries. Moreover, the unlocking mechanism does not prevent folding. If the hands are not positioned correctly, serious injuries can be caused as a result of entrapment or crushing. Finally, the ladder does not have sufficient mechanical strength and can bend during use, possibly resulting in a fall of the user from a considerable height.
