Title: Gardiners carbon gooseneck
Post by: wayne m on February 20, 2013, 06:21:04 pm

Hi I'm thinking of getting one but would like opinions off people who currently use them as to how good they are and what there like to work with ? Have you got it fitted to your pole permanently?  Would appreciate your feedback

i was sceptical about getting one of these mainly due to the fixed angle of them, but gave it a shot and now have 3 could never go back to plastic ones.

How do you manage with over connies and acute angles. I probably adjust my plastic angle adapter 10 times a day. I see there are two, 45 and 55 degrees, what is best?

i have 3 carbon goosenecks.

one on my 25ft SLX with medium extreme brush,i change it to my gooseneck with sill brush for conny roofs/fascias etc

the other one is on my 40FT SUPERMAX with extreme medium mixed brush.

they make velux windows easier to clean and deep sill windows,they are also ultra light.very good piece of kit IMO.

i like the fact the brush is fixed to the gooseneck.no annoying movement of the brush like you sometimes get on screw on goosenecks.sills are easier to clean as well on awkward windows above connies/extensions.


highly recommended

davids i have two 45 degree and one 55 degree.

the 55 degree has more bend on the neck.ideal for conny roof cleaning with a radius sill brush.

the other two are perfect for regular maintenance window cleaning with extreme brushes.

you can still clean the awkward windows with the 45 degree goosenecks.there is always enough brush on the window to clean the glass! ;) ;D ;D ;D

cant see how you need 1 for a small pole but i have 3 for my bigger poles and i think they are ace . i even have the longer gooseneck and its so handy i can do some jobs that would seem impossible with a normal gooseneck . brill imho

Well worth the money. I bought one for my 25slx and it never comes off it now. It can do everything, across conny roofs, narrow passage ways (as you can always get some decent brush on the glass), recessed stuff and, of course, the everyday run of the mill. Certainly makes the slx more balanced and easier to use all day.  ;D
