Title: Gardiner extreme 18 + supreme soft hybrid brush.
Post by: Jonny 87 on April 02, 2015, 05:49:54 pm
Just got my extreme pole delivered today, along with the soft hybrid brush.

Only used it for a few hours, but wow. Can't believe I've waited so long to buy an extreme pole. It is awesome. I'd almost go as far to say it's actually a pleasure to clean windows with.  :o it even makes my slx feel heavy and whippy.

The metal clamping bands work really well, and new smart clamps that stop them spinning (in the open position) is a very clever idea.  All in all I'm absoloutley converted to the extremes. Even if I had to replace it every year ( which I very much doubt) i would happily do it.

Love it.

The brush is also really good. Super smooth on the glass, and the natural bristles scrub very well.

The pictures have came out a bit stretched for some reason, and everything looks wider than it is.lol

Feindishly clever way to stop the levers spinning there.

Time will tell, but so far I really like it. If you liked tecbuk then you will like the supreme range I feel.

The new extreme has the 3 point clamping bands mate, which I'm glad of.  Fully open, fully closed, or half way.

I know Gardiners don't  advise putting a Aqua-Adaptor onto a Extreame , but is it ok ?
The aqua-adaptors are much lighter now .

I'm tempted to buy a Extreame  25ft , to replace my 30Ft Slx .

Shame I can't get a 30ft Extreame

The clamps look like their 100% cock on now

I used the original AD on an original extreme for a good few months did no harm.

But it was like buying a Ferrari and putting a ford fiesta engine in it ;)

I wouldn't put an ad on an extreme
They are too delicate
Mine broke cos of the weight of the ad

I have used my v lite ad for a year now on my extreme without a problem , in my opinion the original ad was way to heavy for the extreme but the latest ad is fine , according to the letter of the law you aren't suppose to use it with an extreme but realistically its fine .. Just be sensible
