Does this ladder only lean against a wall or can it stand on it's own? The photos don't seem to show any stabilization at the bottom.

The ladder is a standard one that leans against a wall, tree, etc. it cannot stand on it's own like an A frame ladder.

This ladder cannot stand on it's own...the only stabilization is the rubber ends on the legs. We have used this ladder off/on for over a year now and tho it seems somewhat flimsy when extended, it has done an ok job for us...my husband is 185 and holds him. We like the compactness of it when not fully extended and ease of carrying.

Nope! It leans against the wall. So as long as you're on a level ground you'll be ok.

Its very stable I don't have mine attached to the actual wall. It is against a wall I use it for bottles and varies wine/spirits glasses for display. It's about a year since I purchased this item and have not experienced any problems at all. I don't regret this purchase, I do recommend it to other its easy to assemble and perfect shelve unit for any usage.

The unit stands on its own, so we have it against the wall behind our daughter's bed and it works fine. We plan to notch out the bottom corners so it will fit more snugly against the wall, but other than that it has been fine for the last 6 months.

As far as I know, the Wall Standoff attaches in only one position. This is because of how it attaches to the ladder itself.

It will work nicely in a corner. The shelves do not need to touch a wall but obviously the sides of the ladder do need something to lean on.

I think it's supposed to but if you just push it back and lean it against the wall it will be just fine it naturally leans back any way there's no way mine is falling forward

It truly leans...no attachements to the wall necessary. There is even a little leg under the large bottom shelf to help support the shelf if you put heavier items (books) on it.

Yes, The large platform at the third level is made to stand on comfortably. the narrow item on the 4th level is a tool tray which probably couldn't support more than 20 pounds and would be very unstable. There is a label hidden under the bottom step that claims the ladder has a "Working load of 225 lbs".

it will stand on its own but not very stable. I think it really needs to be wall mounted.

It will stand on its own. Soft sides with three rigid dividers. It has Velcro strips on the bottom to hold it in place (read the full product description). I've purchased three and will purchase more when needed. I recommend.

Hi -- I have this and it is stable on its own however if you have children I'd recommend attaching to wall for safety.

No, it doesn't stand up by itself really. The hard bottom does help and it depends on the balance of the items inside but it's not meant to stay upright.

I would say yes, if it hangs on the side without it setting on the bottom it will push against the pool walls. If you don't care about that than it's a good ladder, not the best quality but good enough.

I did not use the wall mount and it is standing just fine on its own. But if I had little kids I would use the wall mount just incase they try to climb on it

Yes it leans very nicely against any wall. I purchased two Marcel Mission Style ladder shelves that I am using on each side of my brick fireplace. They look beautiful, simple and elegant.

No but personally I don't think the ladder itself is heavy enough to keep from floating up considering the ladder is removable.
