Decent pole?
« on: August 12, 2013, 08:47:52 am »
From what i read the best pole is the gardiner extreme but they also go for the best price so is there a sort of mid way pole that anybody could reccomend?

Thanks

My SLX-25 is a good all round pole...

Go for the Gardiners SLX 22. Short collapsed length, very light and rigid. Buy the SLX 18 end cap to protect the end and you can take the handle section off to make it even shorter & lighter. The 22 will reach most 3 storey windows, but you can buy extension sections if you require extra length.

I've been using one now for just over a week, really impressed with it.

Regards

what about this type of pole?
Supply to trade and public all you need from complete pressure washers (electric, petrol and diesel), spare parts, accessories, pumps, engines and fittings.

Have only been using Gardiner poles for about 2 months and cant
believe how good they are.
If on a budget get the clx 18 or 22 but any higher than that I would go for a Slx.

Hi Ben ,Yes I have tried the new clamps they are better than the old ones, once you get use to them .It is a shame Gardeners don't nick facelift clamps and nobody would buy another make of  pole again , I say this because I need to buy a larger pole at the moment and Gardeners have so much more choice I just don't like the clamps, Have you tried reach it poles Ben not heard a lot about them in the uk but I know they are bringing a cheaper pole out in the next 2 weeks so it will be interesting to see how it compares to the others
