right as promised a short review of my shiny new facelift pole , the one i have is called a 22 foot fiberglass phoenix , it costs 89.95 plus vat , so its the lower end of the phoenix range , now first of all im not here to have a go at other makes and models im just going to give a honest view of the new kid on the block , so to speak ...... anyway i dealt with mike who works for facelift , i got next day delivery , with a text the night before saying it would be delivered tomorow , then the next morning i even got a text telling me my pakage would arive between 11 and 12 am , it arived at 11, 15 am so we can give a big fat tick to excellent customer service , but whats the pole like i hear you cry , well for the price its amazing its very light but rigid as well the clamps are very user friendly , this week i have had thick unger neoprene gloves on but still had no problem getting my fingers under , i have had no problems with the screws coming loose on clamps , today i used the pole without gloves and afterwards my hands wernt black like you would expect , even the brush { bought seperate } was excellent it has holes in the top making it even lighter , the pole sections slide up and down effortlesly , it has rubber on the end which is handy for those of us who have to work around cars , if you do brush against a car it wont scatch it , over all for the price this is a very very good entry level pole ... it does have one bad point however , the tape that is there as a guide so you dont pull the section out of its socket when extending , its BLUE , and im a RED { liverpool red , yeth yeath i know dont even go there im off footy at the moment } anyway if mike and the team can change the blue to red , then i think ive got myself an excellent pole
