Re: slx 35 as a everyday brush

i know this may seem strange but given that these brushes/poles are sooooo light would it be feasible to use a slx 35 as a every day brush.
I want to move away from Harris poles,nothing wrong with them just i feel after 3 years its time to treat myself and i happen to have a play around with a slx35 that Richard speech has and i couldn't believe how light it was and my train of thought is that if i am going to get a good pole i would get the 35 and new radius sill brush(now that dazmond as given his seal of approval :D) and a aqua adapter and that way i am covering all my bases,so to speak,i can use it on everyday domestics and when needed the odd/big jobs we get.

so what do you think(go easy on me :D)

bob

cmon Bob stop putting it off and get yer wallet open and spend some money on a decent pole .. I know u got some money now  ;)

ask 20 people their opinions and you will prob get 20 different answers

SLX 22 will do 99% of work


and when the other one % is due i will have to grovel to you for the "brodex beast" and i think your hire charges are too high ;D

35footer is too long when you only need that length a few times a month.in fact i dont have any work over my 31 foot reach!!i bet you dont either.

25ft is plenty for most domestic.so youll be carrying an extra 2 sections about for most of your work that are not needed!!


we do actually,every two months we have a block of flats at least four storey and 4 dormer windows on the roof-line set back slightly,so the 35 would probably do it,i think on balance i will go for the 35 and just remove one or two sections,fit a pole cap on to it and just reassemble for the big jobs

That's what I would do.

I think the question is more- would you want to, rather than can you- use a 35ft pole all day everyday, especially when it's not needed 90% of that time. ;)

I "could" use my Xtreme 48 as an everyday pole but it would be silly & I wouldn't want to.

My 4 and a half year old slx30 is used as a 20ft most of the time and the extra sections put on as necessary.
It's a game of three halves!

was using a 35ft every day put was getting problems with me elbow joints,so brought a 25ft slx and problem gone away.
the 35 now sits in the van gathering dust,as i now have a s-max 45,so it doesnt get used.
