30-50ft 3 years ideally
50ft+ 5 years.

I used to spend £750 a week in diesel to earn a living. So if a pole lasts a week I would say its good value!
Makes you think?

18ft pole 1 year to 2 yr
25/30 - 2 to 3 year with tlc

45 ft occasional use - 10 year I hope , hence due to not using it often I decided to import it from china direct £320

Frank I have had my clx 35 for 18 months replaced the second section spit and this was my fault it started to split  and I just left it alone.
I reckon I will get 8 months before I will replace.
