got an older clx 27 and recently replaced my xtel hybrid 40 with a supermax 40, dont need it on all jobs but find myself using it more as its more rigid than the clx, especially if you open several sections but not fully if that makes sense. Even find I use it now on regular terrace fronts where once I stood in the gardens to clean with the clx, I now clean from the pavement with the supermax, saves me a lot of time especially when I have several in a row.
