Grafter plus
« on: August 25, 2011, 03:55:32 pm »
Hi guys,

Is there anybody on here that uses the grafter plus pole?

What's the weight & rigidity like?

I know they have made them shorter for ease of use on ground floor, but in turn this has made the base end thicker, do you find using a thick pole all day, every day comfortable?

Thanks In advance.

Simon

P.s no Ionics slagging, no Gardiner pole talk.

Just honest opinion's from grafter plus users

All of Ionics new poles are very good.

However compared to the equivalent Gardiner pole they are

heavier
more expensive
not as ridged
longer when closed

the brushes remain unchanged after many years and are also heavy, although they do last well.

So sorry to burst your bubble mate but I have NO loyalty to any company, rather I prefer to get the best equipment and IMO paying more for an inferior product is a no brainer.

Although you did ask for users opinions only I admit I am not one.
The best way to predict the future is to create it.

i have just the standard grafter 21 ft i think for the money its very good i find it very rigid, and good in tight spaces as very small collapsed lengh. and one good thing the clamps are good and dont come of so no messing about glueing them like some on the market. on a whole very good and will be buying more stuff from them.

Woody1,

Thanks for that mate.

Been using Ionics 18ft multi pole for the last 4 years and ergo lite for stuff over 18ft. The multi pole's don't last long, sections wear down quite quick, but the brush is really hard wearing, been using the same brush now for 4 years.

What do you think of the thickness?

Many thanks

Simon
