We had that one. Husband reckons you’d be risking fingers to let it down from above. He also pointed out there’s no legal justification for a top-operated loft ladder. Under building regs, loft ladders are ok for storage areas but you pretty much need a staircase for a habitable room. So from the manufacturer’s POV, it’s not an obvious feature to design in.
Thanks. Did look at something similar and reckon it'd be possible to pull up but not sure I could put it down when I wanted to get out of the thing!
