Is this new???. Looks like he is still selling them with the old clamps on which on mine fell to bits within a couple of months. They now have the tuff clamp which they sell for about £28 which are apparently stronger and very slightly higher ( they are a different colour with white finger clamps I think).

Couldn't tell you what it's like as I bought an slx in the sale so it's in the van as a spare.

Look at the size of those clamps!!  :o

Besides, I thought every manufacturer by now realized that you need thumbscrews on the clamp bolts for easy adjustment?  ;D

My understanding is that Reach-iT is no longer distribute through Window Cleaning Warehouse and it has been like that for the pass 6 months?. I will let Futureofcleaning who sell the Reach-iT range know about the link. Thanks

The bit your refer to your right but the point I was making was no glue. I have had so much probs with some brands and glue. Those that may have had simular issues might be interested to know that its all screws on this.
