Got the 10ft PRO today, very nice ladder. Will be used much more in every day business as the weight is well managable. The 6 ft will follow in a few months!

Convinced, today I ordered the Henchman Pro fully adjustible. Then I will have a 10 ft and a 16 ft tripod ladder, maybe a smaller one will follow later. Does somebody use the 6ft for shrub and hedge trimming?

I think I will order the Pro one. Another option would be a 10ft Hasegawa with only one adjustable leg. Price difference is 500€ for the Hasegaea vs. 800€ for the Henchman Pro. How often do you use all adjustible legs on the 8 or 10 ft tripod ladders?

Thanks for your response. Where was the old Henchman worn out? Was it mostly beaten up from transporting or use?

Hi I'm looking to buy another tripod ladder. A few weeks ago I ordered a 16ft Henchman Pro, great ladder. For the usual hedge trimming and tree pruning I want to get a shorter one, most likely a 10ft or second choice 8ft fully adjustible. Now I'm investigating the difference between the Henchman fully adjustible 10ft (black front leg) and the PRO 10ft (red front leg). Difference as far as I can see is the missing mechanism to fix the leg to the ladder and only one platform on the less expensive one. Henchman claims the PRO is a more ridgid ladder compared to the standard fully adjustible one. Can't believe it really as they are specified the same weight and I don't think they use different aluminum profiles with reduced wall thickness. Has any one both versions and can compare them?
