Argos is a huge online website that sells a whole lot of different things. But do they meet your expectations when it comes to loft ladders? There is only one sure way to find out, and that is by taking a good look at their website. Let’s do that right now.
How do I find their website?
The website is at www.argos.co.uk.
Best Selling Loft Ladder from Argos
How can I find all the loft ladders they sell?
As with many other websites, loft ladders are not that easy to find straightaway on the Argos website. But luckily they have a great search feature you can use to help you get there much faster.
When we explored the site they had just one loft ladder in stock. The URL to take you to the search results for this ladder was http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?storeId=10001&catalogId;=1500001801&langId;=-1&searchTerms;=loft+ladder&Submit;=GO+%3E. You just need to type ‘loft ladder’ into the box they give you and then you can find out which items they currently have available for sale.
Do they have plenty of loft ladders on their website?
Well the answer was certainly no when we were there! But the one they did have was well built and certainly well made for the job. This was a three section loft ladder as well, whereas some are only comprised of two sections. The best bet is to take a fresh look at the site in case other new loft ladders have been added in recent times.
Is there a lot of useful information on their site?
Yes there is. Every page is very well presented and if you get a list of more than one item to look at, you will find that it is well laid out and easy to tell at a glance which item is going to be best for you.
Once you are into a specific item you will find the page is well laid out for you to read as well. The loft ladder we found had a well worded title that immediately told you how many sections the ladder was constructed from, and what it was made of. It also mentioned the handrails which were part of the design.
You get quite a decent image on this page but you can enlarge it by clicking on the button if you want to. If you do this you will find that the picture gets a big larger in the pop up box, but not that much bigger. It is still worth doing though!
The details box is very well ordered with a series of bullet points telling you what each part of the product is all about. It tells you the minimum size for the opening into your loft, as well as clearance and other pertinent facts you will need to know. As such you should check all the dimensions are suitable before you figure out which loft ladder you should buy.
If you click on the review tab next to the details one you will be able to read the opinions of those who have already bought these loft ladders. Each person is able to give a rating out of five stars. What you will see at the top is an overall rating taken as an average out of all the ones they have received to date. This is a good way to help you decide on the right loft ladder, but it becomes more accurate the more reviews there are.
How easy is it to order my new loft ladder online?
There is an easy process to buy your loft ladder online from Argos. The green ‘buy or reserve’ button enables you to do both of these things, although the loft ladder we found could only be delivered to home, as they didn’t stock it in the stores themselves.
You will see the green ‘continue’ button below the choices you have available, and upon clicking on this you will be prompted to either carry on or create an account. Unlike many companies you don’t have to create an account, so for speed just carry on and complete your online order for your loft ladder with Argos.
In conclusion
Argos had a disappointingly small collection of one loft ladder when we paid a visit. But they did at least provide an all round and very popular design that had pleased a lot of people.
If this sounds like what you need, do take a look. And they may have added more to the range now anyway.
