Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I thought these vegetable ladders were a bit pricey and perhaps a bit of overkill (quite heavy and sturdy); but after years of trying to grow peppers using other kinds of supports I finally tried the veggie ladders. They really work well, giving the plant just the right amount of support, and they nest into each other for winter storage. Glad I finally tried them. Now eyeing the tomato ladders!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
They work exactly as stated. You just have to keep on top of pinching the suckers. They are really a space saver if you want to plant more vegetables in a smaller area
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Could be a little larger. My NM green chiles could use more support.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
My plants are not up high enough to use this yet, but if it works as well as the tomato ladders I will be happy
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These supports, as well as the tomato ladders are perfect. Good, heavy-weight wire construction. They go into the ground easily. The plants are supported well. They nest together for easy storage. I kick myself for using the flimsy wire cages for so long. My recommendation: Bite the bullet and spend the money for something that actually does the job well.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
So far, I have not had to tie my plants to the ladders. Even with the many storms we have had in this area during Spring, all plants have remained within the ladder structure. This is certainly a plus! They should last for several years since they are so strong and treated to resist rusting.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Exactly what I expected. Just wish it was a bit taller.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Will use products on eggplants and peppers - used tomato ladders last summer and they worked great!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I am using these stands for bell peppers, eggplant
and possibly other types. they can't possibly fall over when they get top heavy.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Sturdy and attractive supports. Not cheap, but are easier to use and so much more sturdy than the flimsy cheaper ones I had before. I'm sure these will last a lot longer too. I am just sorry they sold out early of the 5-piece sets (I got the set of 3 but could probably have used 5)
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
works well to support vegies - most plants strong enough to support own fruit but feel this helps keep plant strong - someone else also liked these because several "walked" out of garden - last time I checked this product was no longer offered in pkg of 5 and had been chg to pkg of 3 (and cost per unit increased) possibly by popular demand this has been changed back. . .
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I have some short plants that have become bushy and fall over onto the grass. I am using these to support them.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These are great for the vegetable garden. They help make the garden look more orderly. I also have the taller ones for tomatoes! They hold up very well and they stack together for storage!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
We are using this to support our eggplants. Super!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
If used in a plastic pot to support a large plant be careful about the stability or the whole thing can become top heavy and fall over.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
After reviewing many products, I bought this one. Still waiting on results, but it makes sense to get plants and produce off the ground. I have a small-sapace, raised-bed garden. I also have some Earthboxes for tomatoes and peppers. This product was chosen for strength, size, and ease-of-use.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
these are the perfect size and are extremely well made, they'll last forever.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These ladders are great. I am using them for peppers this year and am anxious to see the support system at work. They certainly look better than my tobacco sticks with pantyhose ties!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I'm using these in my garden for peppers, eggplant and mini-tomatoes. They're green, so they blend right into the garden. They're so much nicer than the flimsy metal "cages" you see at hardware stores.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Very easy to use and strong support for peppers, etc. Great product.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use in my small tomatoes containers, it durable and nice.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I grow lots of varieties of Asian eggplants and these supports are very useful for supporting the plants whose branches can become heavily laden with the small fruits. This is my second purchase having found the first set so useful.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Thes are very heavy duty. I hope to have vegetable plants that are so productive that they need this much support! They look like they will prevent the plants from falling over by giving support to the center/core/stalk of the plant, but the plant may need to be able to support it's own periphery and fruits.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Kansas is hail prone and has severe thunderstorms with winds up to 40 miles per hour all summer long. As late as June we have had freak hail storms that last for a short time and strip leaves from large plants. These ladders allow all stemmed type vegetables: peppers, eggplant, bush peas and beans to survive a severe rainstorm or hail without the main stem breaking.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use these for my veggie garden. I can plant more in my small garden with this product by having things grow up. My plants are still small but I think it will be great down the road.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These look and work great. My only concern is that after only about a month, some of the edges are beginning to rust. (The paint must be very thin in spots). Other than that these are attractive and effective.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
This is the first year thit i will be using this product but this item is very well built and is very strong
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Very windy area, almost never ending first 3 months of growing season, a must for eggplants and peppers
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These are every bit as nice as they appear in the catalogs. Solid and sturdy, too! They can be used singly as individual supports, or paired together for anything that requires extra support. Very versatile. I expect to be able to use these to address many gardening support issues for many years to come.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
have used these ladders for years and never had any complaints. now up to about 20 of them. great for tomatoes, glad to see the extensions available. I use them for peppers and eggplants too.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
It's too early to plant outside just yet, but these well-made and sturdy supports are just what I was looking for to keep the plants up off the ground. Our windy is so hard on the plants...these will really help!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Very useful item for garden, patio or indoor plants.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I used these vegetable ladder supports on some of my peppers and eggplants last year in my vegetable garden. It was completely maintenance-free, I just put them in place at planting time and that was it. The pepper and eggplant plants that had the protection of these supports survived wind storms better than the unprotected plants. I'm not sure if it was just because they were not losing branches to the occasional wind storm, but the plants I had supported grew bigger and produced more fruit than identical plants right next to them without supports. Additionally, the deer (which are a problem in my garden) would not step on these vegetable ladders, which meant not a single one was trampled this year! Then in the fall when it came time to put up wall-o-waters and row covers, having the supports in place made it very easy to implement these season-extending things without damaging the plants. I purchased more of these this year so that I can protect all of my peppers and eggplants from storms and hooves.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I've had problems with pepper plants drooping under the weight of the peppers, but these really help. I've had tomato ladders for years, and they are very sturdy. I expect these to be as durable.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
If these work half as great as the tomato ladders, they have to be another "best buy" item. Look forward to using them this summer with the same ease of use and productivity as your tomato ladders.

Too early in season to know much about it's use. EW
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use this product to support pepper plants, eggplants and any other vegetable or flower plants that require staking.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I plan to use these for pepper plants next spring. If they are anything like the tomato towers, I will be very happy. I can't find durable towers like these anywhere else.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These ladders worked really well with our squash and some of our wildflowers! Great product! Very sturdy.
[0 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Not only do these ladders allow my eggplants and yellow squash to be supported so that the fruits are off the ground BUT they also give the birds a place to perch. This seems to really encourage my feathered friends to look over my plants for worms and bugs to eat, thereby helping me with pest control.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I know eventually I'll love both the vegetable and tomato ladders. They're so sturdy and easy to store. My problem is the '3rd side'. The open side is where my plants manage to evade the support of the ladder. I can't check them everyday, so first thing I know they're growing every which way and falling over. I've tried zig-zagging plastic plant support tape back and forth across the 3rd side opening. They still escaped. I tried making sure the 3rd side was away from the direction of the sun. They still escaped. Although I really don't want to do this, since it will be expensive, the only answer I can see is to use two ladders together facing each other. That way, nothing will escape!! If you have a better idea, please let me know. I would 'maybe' recommend these to a friend, once I figure out how best they will work!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I just love these supports! I have used them to support my eggplants, tomatoes, peppers, & my flowers! They don't rust & the metal is a nice thickness and not flimsy at all! I will purchase more in the future!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These ladders are absolutely the best! I have used them for my tomatoes, peppers, eggplants & flowers--whatever needs a support plus I like that they don't rust. Super thick metal is a heavy duty for most of your garden needs! I highly recommend them! I have purchased in prior years & again this year.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I loved the large laders so much I had to get the smaller ones for smaller plants.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
In addition to supporting my plants, the ladders made it easier for me to spot and remove insects before they did any damage. They also allowed me to grow more in my 3x3 raised bed planters.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I have a small garden so this product helped me to grow vegetable and looks nice and organized.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Great for all vegetables. Easy to use. Allowed the vegetables to grow upright, not mildew, get the correct amount of water and kept the animals away.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I ordered these to prop up the peonies. Now they are keeping the tomatoes upright, away from the slugs. I can envision many uses for them in the years to come--yes, they are that durable!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
By far the best support for peppers, eggplants, and, I use the larger supports, for tomatoes. Their strength is impressive - never teetering or falling over in strong winds. They are also very attractive (and maintain that look through years of use). I want my garden to not only be productive, but also pleasing to the eye and vegetable and tomato ladders definitely contribute to that end.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Use them for my tomatoes.I can also put up another one if my plants get rangy.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
perfect height for most peppers and more durable and attractive than most pepper cages.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I've used these for small hot peppers and large bell peppers. I won't use them again for the bell peppers, since I've had several peppers get pushed up against the firm supports in the small v of the ladder and get trapped, or split, or rot, etc. Might not be a problems with other large vegetables if they're on more flexible stems that you can easily reposition. But I love them for smaller pepper plants that still require some support.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I tried these for the first time this year, on peppers and eggplant. I made the mistake of procrastinating on the order and didn't get them until after the plants were two feet tall. Note to self: set the ladders in place before planting the seedlings. It can be difficult pushing the legs into stony ground ... the legs will bend if I put my whole 170 lbs to bear. Also, I had some fruits trapped in the rungs ... this can be avoided by training the plants to keep fruit in the clear.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These ladders look great & work well with many types of plants, including basil, green peppers, eggplant. I plan to buy more; they've worked well in the vegetable garden and in deep pots.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use these for tall flowers that need the support and for nearly all of my vegetable garden plants - cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, even have watermelon on them this year. I've used them the last few years with vegetables in containers too. They are sturdy and provide great support.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I used them in my vegetable garden to support my pepper plants. Strong enough to hold up the plants when they start getting heavy with the peppers.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Used to hold green peppers and eggplant in my vegetable garden.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I am using the vegatable ladders with green pepers and egg plants and they are wonderful. Easy to find fruit, good support.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I used these this year for my peppers and eggplant plants. Last year my eggplant plants had beautiful eggplants on them and fell over. Never got to harvest anything. This year is a different story. These ladders hold the plants and their fruit upright and look beautiful in the process.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I love how easy the vegetable ladders are to install and how effective they are at supporting my pepper plants and eggplant plants. They also look good in the garden.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Good product and very durable--just like the a short version of the tomato ladder. I would need a dozen or so to use, but the cost factor does not allow me to purchase them.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Using this product for Green Pepper plants. By late Summer, we have had winds that tend to bend my plants over, this product holds them up. No more peppers lying on the ground. I will be using this for hot pepper plants also.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Used these ladders to support pepper plats and some were taken by my wife for her flowers. They are excellent for these applications, withstanding strong winds and rain with no overturning. And they are attractive in the garden.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Used for gardening along side the house
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
VERY VERSATILE PRODUCT, CAN EVEN BE LAYED FLAT TO KEEP ANIMALS FROM USING AREA AS A LITTER BOX

i used them for egg plants.the best
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use these all over the yard from flowers to veggies and even for a small tree or two. They blend in nicely and do not interrupt the green of my garden visually.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Perfect for propping peppers!!! This little ladder is incredibly sturdy and just the right height.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
use in vegetable garden think that its a great product. considering every year buy new vegetable and tomata stands. think they need to be a wider v shape especially for tomato cages
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Works great and easy to use.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I am using them for all my smaller vegatables that need support. They are perfect.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
This height works great with my sweet and hot peppers. They store great during the off season, and are very well made. I also have the taller 'tomato' version and love them as well.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I tried these for the first time last year and was very pleased with how they helped increase my pepper production. Highly recommend.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Versatile product. Have used to support eggplant/pepper plants, as a protective "wall" for very small trees (so I wouldn't mow over them or step on them) and as a support for taller flowers such as delphinium or hollyhocks. Purchased one set a year ago and came back for more as they are very sturdy.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
vegetable ladders are great. just the right size for peppers and eggplants
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These are really durable, strong supports. I use them for my smaller tomato and pepper plants. I love them!

What a great concept. I have these supports around my Bell Peppers and Jalapeno and Serrano Chilis. I'll order more next year for eggplant!

Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Use it for my peppers and eggplants. Their wonderful because when we have rainy weather, I don't have to worry about them falling over.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Very durable and look attractive in the garden.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
The veggie ladders are basically the same product as the tomato ladders - but substantially shorter. I love my tomato ladders, but, I've found that the overall height of the vegetable ladders tends towards the 'too short' end of things. So, I've ordered more tomato ladders instead - better to have a little bit of unused trellis than a plant that is trailing across the ground because the ladder is too short! Quality wise, these are top notch and I expect them to last for years.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Nice quality. Should last for years of gardening.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
worked wonders in the garden
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
My small garden space was put to much greater use as the ladders contained the plant.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Purchased this year after I purchased the similar tomato supports last year. Work great for pepper plants ... just like the tomato supports work great for the tomato plants!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
good for different vegi's
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I am using mine for both eggplant and peppers. Last year my pepper plants tipped over from the weight of the peppers.So far the ladders are doing are doing a great job supporting them.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I have always attempted to stake my peppers but found it was not always successful. They often fell over and broke due to high winds. This is my first time in using these supports and it appears that they are going to do the job very nicely. I also used the silver mulch paper and have found that even though I was late starting the peppers and I thought that the peppers you sent were very small..they are now bearing fruit! This is great for my area - I am usually late in planting and now this year I have peppers to eat early. I was very pleased that you carried Gypsy as it is our favorite pepper. For some reason it is no longer available in our area. I think that I might use these supports in my flower garden as they look so good.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I liked these so well for my peppers last year that I bought the larger set this year for my tomatoes. I love them!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
They work very well for a number of uses: eggplant, pepper plants, and flowers. I also use them beside the similar, taller tomato supports to catch that loose tomato branch at the bottom that crowds the taller support. The V shape makes it easy to push it in against taller support and hold a wayward stem with 6 large tomatoes. I have even tied a smaller support to a larger support.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
My friends are envious!
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Used in my retirement garden!! made tending the garden easy.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I love these. I used them with eggplant, tomatoes and peppers. I have garden boxes so saving space is a must. These ladders are a big help.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Very sturdy and good construction. Seeing most pepper/eggplants are sold in 6 package sets it would make sense to sell these in sets of 6 and not 5. Color blends in well with the background
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Extremly great for bell pepper and patio type tomatoes. Produced a great deal of peppers and tomatoes apprantley they were happy veggies and we were too. Couldnt ask for a better harvest from containers. Couldnt ask for a better veg ladder.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Great product easy to use, well built
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I used this product in a vegetable garden - providing support for peppers. Form of support makes it easy to pick peppers. Works fine.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Productivity of peppers (all varieties) and eggplant are greatly enhanced when using these ladders. They support the plant and vegetables in the wind, and even just from collapsing under the weight of the vegetables.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I have a very visible vegetable garden from my dining room and I wanted sturdy supports that looked good. When I "show off" my garden the most common question is. "Where did you buy those?" (I bought the matching tomato ladders and they are impressive too.)
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
Perfect for our peppers, small eggplants and smaller heirloom tomatoes.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:

Works well with pepper plants.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I use this product for eggplants and peppers, keeps them off the ground, does not bend
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These offer great support for small- to mid-sized vegetables. I've planted several bell pepper plants, which are happily "climbing" the ladders as I type this. Plus, the ladders have an attractive dark green finish that blends seamlessly with all of the foliage in my garden! I'll be more ordering more soon!

These ladders are awesome. I bought the vegetable ladders and they work great! I plan on purchasing the tomato ladders next year if someone does not buy them from my Christmas list.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I purchased both the vegetable ladders and the tomato ladders, and will add to my supply next year. Very sturdy. Look like they will last for years.
Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
I have used other supports in the past. I bought some of these three years ago and have looked foreward to using them every year. So far, absolutely no sign of wear. Sturdier than any support I've seen. Had to buy a few more this year due to more plants.

Comments about Vegetable Ladders, Set of 5:
These ladders are easy to use. Just push them into the soil around the plant in question. Supports heavy fruit and helps prevent the fruit from causing damage to the branches from weighing them down. Very sturdy and come in green or red. Economical too!
