I need to buy a new ladder for my salt water pool because my inox-based ladder is rusting.
ANy advice on what I should choose, between plastic and inox ? It seems to me that plastic is cheaper and will not rust, but it seems everyone is buying inox based ladders (people recommend me inox 316). Am I missing something important ?
Thanks

Stainless steel should be best and won't rust unless it's a cheap alternative
Check the specs. and suitability

Stainless steel doesn't corrode or rust and is sturdy
I have two stainless steel hand rails and they are as good as the day they were installed
There are different grades of stainless steel
