has anyone got the slx30?
how good are they?
i cant stand the clx27 too bendy
so looking at getting the slx30.the extra 3 foot should come in handy on a few akward windows i do!
has anybody used both poles?
cheers

I can only comment on the slx30. Cracking pole
I use it as my everyday pole as i do a lot of town houses and 2nd floor windows
I have an extreme white brush and 10"c/f gooseneck on it and its great even for low level and tight situations.
The only issue with it, as with all carbon poles, is dont overtighten the clamps as the poles start to spin-but thats my fault, not the poles fault.

Ive got the slx30, havnt got the clx27 though, but used to have a 27ft xtel hybrid.
The slx is stiffer and lighter, especially good with the extreme brush.
If you want stiffer and lighter there is only 2 options,
The gardiners extreme pole or a carbon modular.

I have slx 30 great pole does 99% of my round.
I also have clx 22 which is a good pole but on the limits of acceptable bendyness ;D
I know how you must feel that extra section/ bend it would create would be a bridge too far for me.
So I say treat yourself to an SLX.

Hi doctor ,
i just got an SLx 25 , brilliant pole very rigid reaches all town houses easy i love it so much i take it in doors every day lol
im sure the slx 30 is just another section what i can say thou is the slx25 will reach everything your clx27 can just a 1 foot difference so get the carbon ghoose neck and you should be ok with the slx25 its weight will be the same as an clx18 , i was totally on fire today town houses dominated with ease

I`ve got a cl-x27 and the sl-x30 but i`ll provide you with no information.
You have previously grouped me and many others on here as a fool. You want and take as much information,advice, and help as you can from frequenting this forum yet when you have a chance and have been asked to provide detailed information on the work you have been encountering from Groupon deals then you chose to ridicule any opinions other than your own and decided the forum wasn`t worthy of any info.
So go ask Groupon which pole you should have as you have touted them on here as the window cleaners best friend.

We use clx27 as daily poles. Great pole for staff, however, if I was doing the rounds, from reviews alone, I would buy an slx.

A valid point

valid point?
it was ok for people to give me a abuse for going on groupon etc
i say something back and whoever he is gets the hump and cries,tbh i don't give a flying puck!
There is some very decent posters here!

Doc - yes there are lots of great guys on here - there are also some, well we had best not go down that route, also
sometimes people get the wrong end of the stick or are just having a bad day !
TBH - my opinion on groupon is not to go down that route - and many didn't quite understand to the term goals, lets be
fair and say you wer very dogmatic to what people said, joeUk on the other hand made a better case, so much so
i have a plan for groupon come next year ( possibly ) depending on some honest feedback from those who have gone
down this route

I wasn't given chance to explain but there you are,but my views are Groupon is good but after febuary,i will just get my canvassers out getting new work,i will also be out canvassing!
Troubles i have come across is people don't read,because there is no Groupon for my area i had to put it on other areas meaning that people from them areas even though it stated the areas i clean,they expect you to go there!
Also i get loads of calls and voicemails from people expecting me to call them back to arrange when im going to clean there houses,even though it states contact via email only!
Also annoying they can't ring in the evening.
Im not too sure i will bother with Groupon next year,i have added a decent percentage of customers but find it a bit too much hassle to be honest.
Canvassing is easy and straight forward where you get the names addreses and number and book them in when your in there area unlike Groupon where they think they can say i want you to do them next wednesday after 3pm,to which i reply No!
