Rank #3 in Best Step Ladder 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Spec Numbers That Contradict Each Other
NOVECRAFTO 6-Step Folding Ladder with Platform, 150kg
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The NOVECRAFTO Lightweight Tall Folding 6 Step Ladder with Platform is a silver aluminium A-frame ladder with six steps, a wider top platform and a folding frame that stores flat. It is priced at £78.95 and takes third place in our step ladder guide, with 4.6 out of 5 from 242 ratings. The votes are concentrated at the top: 78 five-star ratings, 16 four-star, and six ratings at three stars or below.
The reason it is worth a closer read is that the listing does not agree with itself. The item dimensions line gives a height of 181 cm; a separate maximum height field gives 187 cm; and a bullet calls it a "6ft step ladder", which is roughly 183 cm. The weight is split in the same way — 4.3 kg in the specification table against "just 12.13 lbs (5.5 kg)" in the product text. The load figure is the one number that does line up: 150 kg in the table and "150 kg / 330 lbs" in the bullet. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it is written, not from testing we carried out ourselves.

Questions people ask
How tall is the NOVECRAFTO 6 step ladder when open?
The listing gives more than one answer: the item dimensions line says 181H cm, a separate maximum height field says 187 cm, and a bullet describes it as a 6ft step ladder. Nothing in the listing reconciles those figures.
How much does the NOVECRAFTO ladder weigh?
The specification table says 4.3 kg, while the bullet says "just 12.13 lbs (5.5 kg)". The two numbers sit in the same listing without explanation.
What load can it carry?
150 kg. It appears as the load capacity in the specification table and as "150 kg / 330 lbs" in the bullet, so those two do agree.
Can it be stored in a small space?
The listing says it is collapsible and can be kept behind a door or beside a wardrobe, and lists foldable and lightweight among its special features.
What is the ladder made of?
Aluminium with a silver finish. The listing also mentions non-slip treads on each step and non-slip rubber feet on each leg.
Where is the NOVECRAFTO ladder made?
The listing gives Poland as the country of origin.
