Product Description
Set up an easy way to enter and exit your pool safely and securely with the Vinyl Works A-Frame Ladder with Barrier. This above-ground swimming pool ladder supports users up to 300 pounds to safely guide them in and out of your pool. This Vinyl Works ladder is ultra stable.

The slide-lock design locks the barrier in place so no one swims through, around, or behind the ladder while in the pool.

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Customers are mixed about the quality of the ladder. Some mention that it is fairly sturdy, stable, and steady as a rock, while others say that it's very wobbly, flimsy on each side, and the upper handrails are not stable.

"...The ladder is a really good ladder. Yes, somewhat difficult to put together, with or without instructions...." Read more
"...3. It is very wobbly...." Read more
"...It’s great now. And it’s held up well to a ton of kids and my wife getting in and out of our little pool...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the ease of assembly of the ladder. Some mention it's super easy to put together, with adequate instructions. Others say the instructions were difficult to follow, confusing, and difficult to put into those spaces. They also had trouble getting the base feet on and with the drill it'd hard to get into those places.
"...The ladder is a really good ladder. Yes, somewhat difficult to put together, with or without instructions...." Read more
"This was super easy to put together and works great. I like that it is much sturdier for everyone to get in and out of the pool safety...." Read more

"...Assembling is not terribly difficult but the angles and position of the bolts does make some spots tough to get at for assembly...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the value of the ladder. Some say that it's great for the price, and the stabilizer kit is worth the extra money. However, others say that the ladder is not worth the money, and is not a cheap priced ladder. The safety feature of steps that can be lifted is a good idea, but some customers feel that the stabilize kit is not worthy it.
"...Once I FINALLY got it and put it together! Love it. Totally worth the trouble. Worth the money for sure." Read more
"Hardware is definitely on the cheap. They could of spent an extra nickel on some decent Hardware" Read more
"...And they are a decent price compared to some others, if you can find them where they go up, over the top & then down in the water...." Read more
"...It was pricey but I feel that it was worth it." Read more
Customers are mixed about the ease of climbing. Some mention the sliding steps and locking mechanism are nice, while others say that the way the slide up later is held is quite dangerous. The sliding safety stairs have a tendency to create an unstable, and the ladder slides down even when the lock is locked.
"...The second time it was used, the sliding part of the ladder popped out and collapsed!..." Read more
"...I like that this ladder has the ability to slide the steps up to keep the neighbors out while we aren’t home...." Read more
"...any weight on this, and it shifts sideways a bit and the steps are no longer in the track...." Read more
"...Here are our biggest concerns so far...1. The slide-lock feature is a nice idea, but it doesn't work as well as it's intended...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the safety of the ladder. Some mention that the safety feature is nice, and the high top rails add extra safety. However, others say that it's extremely unsafe and poorly built. The bolts come loose, and can cause a hazardous situation. The handles at the top are downright dangerous, and wobbly.
"...The instructions are bad. They need to rewrite them. It has good safety features for those with small children and smart pets...." Read more
"...If that does not shore it up, it's going back. It is not safe as it is...." Read more
"...and don't need the safety parts, no kids here, but, great safety feature. The top handles are way too high, but, maybe needed for the safety feature...." Read more
"...I felt this was not safe and had to drill holes to install more.Stairs outside the pool go down FAST and HARD...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the performance of the ladder. Some mention that it's easy to assemble and sturdy, and works well with 48" above ground Intex pools. However, others say that it becomes useless while installing it and does not do the job intended.
"This was super easy to put together and works great. I like that it is much sturdier for everyone to get in and out of the pool safety...." Read more
"...The stabilizer kit is not worth it, and does very little...." Read more
"...They are not very stiff and flex to the sides. They work great for little kids (under 90 pounds I'm guessing)...." Read more
"This ladder works great for our small pool. I love the safety feature of locking the steps up when not in use" Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the stability of the ladder. They mention that the outer stair pops off the track, the steps do not stay on the track and that it moves out of place. Some say that the ladder doesn't always stay secure with the tab that holds it into the tracks. They also mention that it's flimsy and the base keeps popping off the bottom.
"...On our first use, it kinda got stuck in the up position, and while trying to lower it, my husband nearly cut his fingers off!..." Read more
"...I have found that the ladder doesn't always stay secure with the tab that holds it into place...." Read more

"...that the top rails wobble more than we hoped and the adjustable steps popped out of their track within the first week of use...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the missing parts in the ladder. They mention that the entire package of assembly parts was missing. Some customers also say that the hardware provided is not enough.
"...by the seller who made every effort to rectify the issue of missing components. The ladder is a really good ladder...." Read more
"...We finally figured it out though. I believe it needs a lot more longer bolts than it came with...." Read more
"When I got the ladder it was missing the most important part of the whole thing...." Read more

UPDATE. Was immediately contacted by the seller who made every effort to rectify the issue of missing components. The ladder is a really good ladder. Yes, somewhat difficult to put together, with or without instructions. (was able to download from website) Took about 2 hours overall. It is a very stable ladder, and heavy enough to not float off in the pool. Will have to secure it to the pool though, but mostly because of the way people pull back on the rails when climbing up. Not an issue since every ladder we've had over the last 10 years has had to be secured. I did use nylon lock nuts on the assembly so there will be no issue with the nuts coming loose.

Here are our biggest concerns so far...
1. The slide-lock feature is a nice idea, but it doesn't work as well as it's intended. On our first use, it kinda got stuck in the up position, and while trying to lower it, my husband nearly cut his fingers off! It slammed down on them really hard and actually cut him pretty bad! Imagine if that had been a child's fingers...
2. The specs. stated that it holds up to 300lbs. That is true, as my husband is about 280lbs and nothing has broken yet, but you can def. feel the plastic bend under your weight. My sister, who weighs 140lbs. even commented that she thought it might not hold her...
3. It is very wobbly. It's terrifying to climb up and down, and that is one of the very reasons we didn't want to use the original ladder that came with our pool.
Long story short, if it wasn't such a hassle to return this, we probably would do so.
