Hi guys thinking of buying a new pole would like some advice on which would be the best purchase ionic grafter 24 or gardiners clx22 many thanks phil.

Clx is longer than the grafter, and has a higher carbon content so should be stiffer, oh and it's cheaper, so it's a no brainer really

not long had a clx 18............spot on jobs a good un

[Lee Pryor]

clx 22 every time.

its lighter
stiffer
longer
and cheaper, so why would you go for the grafter?

[thermoclean]

Clx over grafter but elite hybrid 25 is better again

Has any body got the grafter pole??
I have a clx22 great pole for the money I wouldn't mind a slx to be fair... Is there a massive performance upgrade difference between the clx to slx?

I would say mainly stiffness, but they are also slightly lighter.

Which one you got Lee 18ft 22ft or 25ft if I get one I will used my clx as a spare

I got the 22 because it's got a shorter collapsed length, the extra few feet would be handy, but i also have a slx 35, I just get that out, but I use the 22 for pretty much everything, the shorter length make it that little bit easier in confined spaces.

i  have a 21 grafter its a good pole but i will be buying a slx next as i want all carbon for the rigidness and lightness but i must say the grafter is a lot better than the extel poles very rigis for a glass carbon pole, its has 25% carbon

Totally agree makes a big difference closed on lower windows.. Happy days if you have the 35ft when needed thou.. I bet the super lite extreme is a dream to work with  . No more aches n pains on the full days
