Any I would say. Maybe a cheap extel that's what I use. It isn't really going to matter at that length.

Make your own. A bit of ally pole (Harris?) with a rubber handle.

I have an old mk1 SL-X25? and that has been cut down to 3ft something sections and it is just a great pole.

The broom handles in some supermarkets are fitted with a thread that takes an angle adaptor.  You only need to run a bit of pole hose down the outside of it from brush to whatever fitting you use and you have a ground floor pole that will do the job. It won't look elegant but so what.  Can't recall which store I bought my broom in but maybe take an angle adaptor in with you to check.

unger optiloc extension pole i use.i got a alloy adapter from cleantec and plastic angle adaptor/fit brush and small bit of extension hose(5mm) and ive got a very light pole that i can extend to do most large ground floor windows.

i can also easily convert it back to a regular extension pole with mop/squeegee for  large pane windows if wfp is an issue. ;) ;D ;D
