Hi Ronnie

Which one from eastern trading, I have one they made themselves, but I've found them to be unavailable , guess company gone bust

The eastern trading one has few flaws wheels and swivel wheels substandard, not a worry though, I've just changed them through abcompany local to me with help of variteck  

It's very good machine three years old now good hose wider than average use Gardiner Base 10 modular sections with Grippa max tools

If you send me email I ll take picture show you, so you  know my review is the one your looking at

I bought an industrial wet / dry vac (very powerful) from Kevin Martin (http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=24442)

Then some 100% carbon fibre poles (totalling 40ft) direct from a manufacturer.

Then the vacuum hose and other bits and pieces from various suppliers on the Internet.

Total = £990

It's already paid for itself!
