Title: Who is using 74 foot ultimate
Post by: Harry Roberts on June 14, 2016, 12:39:50 pm
I might need to be buying 74' Ultimate.

Not sure how REALLY USEABLE THEY ARE as I have extreme 47 with 3 extensions and to be honest that's very hard to control. Slightest puff of wind and forget it.


Anyone got one that use regularly. How do you find it honestly.

Thanks in advance

Totally agree with u, and same situation

Say £600 for another 3 extentions which would give u the height against £2700 plus vat for a pole that may just be the same if a puff of wind comes round the corner

Any pole at that height will be a nightmare with wind. i only go as high as 65 and even then its a struggle to control with wind, hard enough without.

we like ours and find it better then the ex47  it feels better on the class and its easyer to use when at full stretch , I would say there 30/40% better

Working at these heights has anyone actually went inside the building to see the quality of clean? I would imagine that some window types would be a nightmare  to clean to a decent standard at those heights?

Good point! Is it worth cleaning windows that high up in fact?

I would listen to Susan's advise on the poles she was spot on about six vs Phoenix
