I would like advise on whether to buy an eight or ten foot orchard ladder.
I prune Japanese maples, most of which are less than twenty feet high. To date I have used an eight foot step ladder, but would like to switch to an orchard ladder.
Eight foot looks handy and I could reach most of what I do, but with ten feet I could get to more of the bushy places which collect snow and cause winter breakage.
I am getting older, and so safety is my first priority.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
