S.R. Smith VLLS-103S 3-Step Elite with Stainless Steel Steps Pool Ladder, Stainless Steel

Very nice pool ladder. Good quality. Easy assembly. Steps are stainless steel with non skid strips (seemed to be some confusion about stainless va plastic steps in what we read in reviews).Only disappointment was the escutcheons did not come with ladder. While not listed/advertised as part, I felt they should have been included with the price SR Smith charges for this ladder.Our ladder has been in the pool about a month now - no issues with it rusting or turning black or any of the things I read in some reviews. It still looks as new as the day it went in the pool.

Quality ladder, first order was shipped without steps.....no problems Amazon emailed a shipping label and ordered a second unit to be shipped to me. Second ladder arrived with all parts and delivered asap. Easy to assemble and looks good in the pool.For the price don't think you can go wrong.

Looked good for about 6 months and started rusting badly on the top step and at the waterline on both handles (regular chlorine pool). Now it looks old and rusty. I wouldn't recommend this unless you want to replace it every summer.

Delivery was fast and the the price was much better than any of my local suppliers. No instructions were supplied with the unit and it arrives with full assembly required. The clearance between the nuts and the inside of the steps is very limited. you must use an open end wrench to tighten the nuts that secure the step. More clearance in this critical area would have been better but this is a minor design and manufacturing issue that does not affect the use or operation of the ladder.

Just poured a new deck and this ladder works well for my grandchildren. A bit short at the top only compared to the 60 year old ladder that I replaced. I recommend this item.

Nice ladder - great in the deep end of our home pool.....especially if you have had an adult beverage or two at the swim up bar :)

Ladder is fine, works well. Thank you SR Smith for your prompt attention

Bought two ladders. Spent $237.63 per ladder. Opened our inground pool on Friday May 5th. Two weeks later on Friday May 19th there was a considerable amount of rust. They are supposed to be quality stainless steel but they are not. I will try to add pictures in the next couple of days. This is the first review I have written for Amazon. Would definitely stay away from these.
