Looks like I'm about to buy a pair of stilts. I'm thinking between Surstilts & Durastilts. What do you recommend? Plus, I'm thinking about the 24-40 adjustable. Better than getting fixed?

Unless you're going into business hanging drywall, don't bother.  You can rent them, or just make a quick scaffold using concrete blocks and a 2x6.

They are pretty much the exact same design get whichever one is easier to get parts for where you live because some of the parts do wear out.

I own a (goin' broke) painting company and wanted to see if stilts save more time than dragging ladders to and fro. -Since I'm short as *uck.

Stilts don't work well outside unless there is always concrete to stand on.  But then there could be shrubbery, ornaments, etc. in your way.  Portable scaffolding is usually best.  Inside, use an extension.
