hi john
I would seriousley consider a re-think before buying a 40ft glass fibre pole. i'll tell you straight, they are virtualy un-usable, weigh a ton & have way, way too much flex. they are a serious health hazard, i used to have one, i wouldn't have one for free let alone pay for one.
just being honest with you mate, its dirt cheap for a reason.

I'm no expert has you will see from a post I've just done for POLE RECOMENDATION.

I've had a go with 24 ft gf and think that is the max I would want to use. I think the general advice is to go for Carbon anything over 24ft.

Hope I made the right choice!!

its supprising how many people spend so little on their poles, for me this is the most important part of your set-up (& brush ofcourse). the pole choice that you make is the biggest factor in any wfp set-up that will dictate how easy or hard (physicaly) your working life will be. & also ( to a certain degree) how quick you are & how good a job you can do.

I have a 30ft glass fiber universal pole that I got from cleaning spot.  Way too heavy and way too bendy.  Rinsing off is a joke.  Fully extended you just kind of hope to get near the window, not much good near vents.  I wouldn't buy another one. 

Cleaning spot is a very good company though, all though I'd check gardeners prices as well.

I agree. Just got my tucker pole after getting fed up with worn out clamps, splinters from fibre glass etc. This thing is in another league. Just from when you open the box you know its the best.

I have a 30ft glass fibre, and can tell you, its just about useable, but weighs a ton and is really fat so hard to hold. I would never recommend it. Apart from high stuff I reckon my tucker is the business.

I use my facelift c/f 44ft pole for everything above the ground floor, below that I use a little 2x2ft glass fibre....considering the time you'll hopefully be using the pole go for carbon fibre for the strength and lack of weight...I have a 22ft glass fibre in the van just 'incase' it's good to have but I do not really ever want to use it again...carbon fibre is the mutz nutz.

I gave my 40ft glass pole away free to steve k, ask him about it, i couldn't take money for such a terrible product, IMO they should be banned as a serious health hazard!!!!

Tony if I dont manage to sell this pole on I think I may take it apart and use it as a smaller pole, maybe 24' , its a shame because it will get someone to where they need to be i'm sure it did for me,but now i need to go higher and the supalite does that for me

Chris

[macmac]

thats what steve k had to do with mine, he broke it down smaller as he totally agreed it was useless at 40ft

tony

[Chris Cottrell]

I wouldnt say useless it does what its supposed to do , Its  just a bit on the heavy side ,, 5.8kg on the heavy side , for the small amount of windows i needed to do it was just the job but now i have more
