I like the look of those Jeff, am i right in thinking they are an adapted pole from fishing?Not fishing - kite poles, lots of them about but the Ninja stays up better than most. 4ft extensions but its possible to hold the last "joint" anywhere. Its a tough belt and braces pole, non conducting and clean to use.
The thing I have always wondered with those is does each section need to be either fully in or fully extended or can you part extend like a telescopic?
I am not sure how they clamp, do you have a video showing it in more detail?

Hi Steve
It is frustrating when products are out of stock, however there are CLX & SLX poles currently in stock:
CLX4, CLX14, CLX22 & CLX27 - All in stock
SLX18 - In stock
We will have the following sizes back in stock end of next week:
SLX22 & SLX30

i guess i generalised a bit which was unfair. i looked on your site and the size of poles i am interested in appeared to be out of stock and no notice on there to say when there would be any.
Thanks for the information.
i now seem to have so many options its as bad as when i had none. ;D
Are the sections of a CLX removable?
Steve IMO you only have one choice. Go with the company that trys its best to keep up with the high demand for its poles, the one that charges realistic prices, delivers on time, and is there to help you when you need it.
I will let you make your own mind up on which one that is.(or you can read up on some of the back posts)
I have used alot of other poles and find theres to be THE BEST value for money. I know of 3 other wfp companies in my town who are all using there poles and wont use any other. I think that speaks for itself.

You should add to that:
Although not intended to advertise, you will notice that this post has basically that exact effect, but I'm hoping that by putting this lame sentence at the bottom it will make people less likely to moan about it. Also, maybe it will distract attention from the fact that once again I'm using CIU like my own personal message board, like I've been told off about before. One day I will stop basically spamming ciu with messages or i might even (shock horror) pay to advertise like other people do, but until then I'll just passively promote my gear on here for free, while trying to cover it over with ridiculous caveat at the bottom for as long as i can get away with it.

i think its got to the point of taking the pi*s out of the customers
not all window cleaners are daft and will see this
its obviouse why gardiners have started posting again
ionics have the lateral clamp and i think make the best quality poles
and you get far better quality lightweight brushes for your money
My father is 61 year old and uses the 22ft clx all day long!!! loves it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!is that nce clx you had for the charity dave,hope it was your dads xmas prezzie ;D
Why split a 22 ft pole that weighs 'NOT ALOT' Just use it all day long.
I use a 30ft hxtel all day long weighs alot more than my dads clx. Cant wait for a slx 30.
In response to the original post, the more expensive carbon fibre poles are the way to go. Although they will cost you more the ease of use will make you work a lot faster and there for the pole will help pay for itself.
I'd stick with the gardiners pole range, simple reason being is that they are ahead of the game. The fact that other companies copy what they do (ie ionics, lateral clamp) is evidense that they are ahead of the rest.
I think an ideal length pole for domestic is 25ft but if you like an even smaller closed length the 22 is nice.
The sections are very easy to remove.

as for working faster that has far more to do with the brush than the pole
Quoteas for working faster that has far more to do with the brush than the pole
b******s, still has allot to do with the pole when working with a big heavy pole is either going to knacker you earlier or strain your body reaching awkward windows a light good quality pole will keep you less tired through the day keeping your speed up getting less tired in the afternoon.

disagree ionics have caught up
and their new poles are far better quality
the problem you have with gardiners they make and sell cheap stuff
with them going down the road of charging more for poles
the changes are going to have to be big
the original poster also said cheap
so i would recommend jeff's brimble's pole
as for working faster that has far more to do with the brush than the pole
if you want speed go with the aerial brush
