You didn't answer whether you work for unger or not?

It's all very well calling us all trolls when your really only a shill yourself.

No honestly, they shouldn't. Every major supplier should crank out new revisions of their poles. It will speed up progress in the industry. If nobody would improve things we'd still be stuck with Tucker poles.

The current poles on the market are not that good. It wont take much to make them far better. I know at least 3 companies bringing out new poles that are better than anything out there now.

I guess you do not use gardiners poles then, as the sl-x is an awesome pole

I have a few clx and none broke within mins, they are used for staff poles and take a bashing.
They do come with the same clamps and work well, maybe yours had a fault on it, which I am dam sure Alex would have put right.

I heard the same mr industry! the new 3 are going to be something else.... two of the three are massive companies, with money to invest, they will make sure they no ALL their competitors poles, and better them on cost and quality.

Window cleaners should rejoice over this, its good for all of us......   STOP BEING SO DEFENSIVE , so you had a fall out with xtel however the new one will blow that away...

Remember when scoda were shxxe now their not. Ive heard the octavia is better than the TRUSTY mondeo (the one that everyone went for before before scoda was great and german)!!

Do be honest wasn't impressed at all. Flimsy build. Prefer the Swift, feels a lot nicer.

I am surprised that you do not know who sells the Swift  :o

Here is a link to them - http://www.ionicsystems.co.uk/

If you are comparing a CLX to a Swift then you are way 'off-beam' as the swift is a full carbon pole starting at about £900 for the new 45ft carbon whereas the CLX pole is a budget economy pole at about £90 for an 18ft pole.

If the CLX broke within minutes did you get it sorted by Gardiner Pole Systems? What was the outcome?

To be honest it is about time that manufacturers got their act together and stopped just re-badging old technology. Window cleaners deserve better and need better before RSI and other work related injuries start kicking in with a vengeance.

I for one am completely for improved technology and competitive pricing.

It isn't 40ft. Must be the other one.

They ended up gluing it. Doesn't see much use, it's one of 30+ poles we've got.

Smallest swift is the 35ft recently superseded model. Could be the full carbon Glyder then. Once again this is a full carbon pole and about 4 times the price of the CLX.

Glad you got the CLX sorted. That must be tricky working with 30 poles ;D
