You wanted to know the best, that can only be the slx extreme from gardiners.  However the slx standard is the best of the rest and I would advise buying one of these.

On the website when you click on the "buy" button for the carbon poles they are "out of stock".
What good is that?   ???

It always makes my mind boggle when someone has a website selling items for £800 without an address (a legal requirement, by the way) or a traceable landline number.  Laughable spelling mistakes ("Hi-modulas", anyone?) are just the icing on the cake.

Don`t use a 25 ft pole, just get an 18ft one.
They are not the same but the 18ft is lighter.

Hi Perfect Windows,

I think if you look at the contact us page there are telephone numbers and a full address. This is a new company that have taken a couple of years to develop a good quality pole and clamp. They have stock arriving at the end of next week. Also the range will be available from other resellers.

Don't get a 18ft, you will only regret it when asked to clean facias & three storie houses.
I am having to spend £300 on a 25ft SLX upgrade.
Buy quality & a decent length  :-X

a cheap option is the 25ft brodex hydra alloy pole.ive got one and its good for higher work but not as a day to day main pole as its just too heavy.mine is now just a back up emergency pole.

get the extra money together and buy a 25FT SLX.then you have a pole that can be used all day every day and can reach the awkward windows above connies/flat roofs/extensions with the least strain on your arms/shoulders.also itll reach 3 storey work.

saves getting another pole out of the van.also they are very light and extremely rigid.i should of bought one right from the start.you live and learn!!you ll find the extra length will come in handy a lot more than you think compared to 18ft/22ft poles.buy a supalite brush or extreme brush along with it and you have the best user friendly pole out there and recommended by hundreds of window cleaners both in the uk and america.


regards

going by you saying cheap then you cannot go wrong with the clx.

yes the slx is better but for the price the clx is very good and will get you working well to earn and save up for a better pole = slx

The Water fed pole co looks pretty good value with their 25ft pole being £35 less but only 65g heavier than the slx... i might try there 25ft when its out

STOP SAYING "THEY",

you mean "Me"

If you're gonna spam the forum at least dont trat us like we're stupid.  YOU are that company.  Stop pretending to be a happy customer etc, it is highly stupid and our pet hate.
