1Opinion of the Court
Beasley, Presiding Judge.
Defendant Alltrade, Inc. was granted interlocutory appeal from the denial of its motion for summary judgment in this product liability action brought by McDonald involving a two-step aluminum ladder. McDonald alleged that he purchased the stepladder from The Home Depot, Inc. in November 1984. On October 3, 1990, while McDonald was descending it, the bottom step collapsed and broke, causing him to fall and suffer injuries including a broken hip. The facts of Alltrade’s involvement are not in dispute and the case stands or falls on the application of OCGA § 51-1-11.1.
