The product, in the report: 3 step step ladder
I was using the step ladder to reach items that were on the top of my kitchen cupboards. I keep the ladder in the closet on my patio, and am familiar with using it. I opened it as I normally did, and heard the click that told me it the latch was engaged. I retrieved my item and stepped down to the second step and the step collapsed. The entire ladder tried to fold back up. I fell from the second step and landed on my bottom, using my left hand to brace me. There was a plastic trash container behind me that I fell into, which left a large bruise on the back of my arm, as well as tingling and numbness on the left side of my body (I fell more to the left side of my body - I was holding a large glass bowl in my right hand. The bowl didn’t survive the fall.). Although I did not seek medical attention when it happened, I do plan on seeing my primary care physician because of numbness and tingling in both arms, especially on the left side.
