Im looking for a pole suitable for two story work that has the shortest closed length possible , weight not an issue as its only for 5 rears that have to be done with a backpack taken through the house .
Any recommendations?

your buying a pole just for the back of 5 houses that you will take through a house? ::)roll
just use your normal everyday pole.i use either a xtreme 25 or slx 22 for the 3 or 4 houses that i go through to clean the backs.no problem.the 22 has the shortest closed length of the 2 poles though.

They are mews cottages as part of a development that takes a full day , the backs of the properties are rather tight for space so i would like a pole with a very short closed length .
Is that ok with you Dazmond?

If weight isn't an issue, how about a CL-X 18. If memory serves they are only 5' when closed.

I have a CL-X 10 for bungalows but it also does 2nd floor on mews type house. Very light, short closed and cheap, gets plenty of use and great for tight spaces.

+1 - also assuming it can reach your 2nd flloor windows - it's cheaper & lighter.

I remember at the show I saw a pole called the Pocket which is made buy x-line it was 22ft and ruddy small apparently it is being released this month
-
i felt that xline pole an when i picked it up i thault is was a 18ft pole he then told me it was a 27ft it was tiny short thing felt very inpresseve
-
Harris Pole?
Or cut down any old pole really.
-
that xline pole sounds spot on , i could of course cut down my old clx 18 , never thought of that , take a foot off each section maybe?
-
.........or just take a section or two off instead of sawing the sections?save faffing around. ;D
-
its an old pole that i don't use anymore , if i take a foot off each section the closed length will be much shorter :)
-
Just buy a cheap 4-5 section pole and cut each section down to the size you require,I wouldn't do it with an expensive pole but I've done it in the past with a cheaper pole
-
Cut down a new gardener kevlar pole that will do the job.
-
Yeah lol that pole is not for run of the mill work though is it,you need serious high and high paying work for it to be worthwhile tbh don't you
