Gardiner Xtreme 47 with two extensions. The best & a good price!

Good choice

[Gary nee]

Do you have one of those David, if so I'd like to know how rigid it is?

[david moss]

I don't own one of these poles but the guy I work with sometimes has one.

Like all gardener poles stiff and light

[Gary nee]

Sounds very nice, think I'll be adding that to my collection. From what I'm seeing, and for the one I own, it's defo the way forward.

[david moss]

Gardener poles are the future, and yet when ever I talk to a windy in the street most have never even herd of them

[Gary nee]

I suppose that's true, a forums favourite, but I guess there are people who spend their day earning money, and buy different.

so only £1200-£1300 for a pole that will reach your "once in a blue moon" 60ft commercial job!!

I invested in one of these poles, the job I bought it for was the only one where I needed that amount of reach.

2 years later I use the same pole at least once a week, it has allowed me to quote for jobs I would have previously backed away from. More than paid for itself.

[dazmond]

well done richard.you cant really see what your cleaning at 60ft though surely?i suppose you just scrub and rinse and hope its clean!!

[Dave Willis]

what's the alternative then - ladders

Cherry picker, abseiling or Zeppelin

2 years ago I spent 1k on a SL2-57 for a once per year job @£650.

I then got the Xtreme 48 & now have the Xtreme 47.

Needless to say, they have ALL more than payed for themselves!

[david moss]

You have to invest in yourself and our equipment, Alex has the best pole on the market

[Gary nee]

yes this is true, its a fine pole, i dream about them sometimes.

its a fine day, and still the forum people are chatting, there is of coarse the workers out there today.

[david moss]

A lot of windys dream about Alex's pole
