best pole
« on: December 26, 2007, 12:06:45 pm »
hi all
what is the best pole in your opinion for domestic work.
i am currently using brodex preditor poles.
a 24 footer occasionally and the 18 footer most of the time
must have a sill brush and fit into a berlingo van
although 24 ' is high enough i would like the option to go higher
what do you guys use
hope all went for you over xmas
tony

I use a 17' xtel, great closed length and light but a bit bendy, I think it would be pretty impossible with the weight of a sill brush.  Also have a 28' xtel hybrid, that is a really good pole very rigid and still a pretty good closed length. 

If your not looking to buy one until the end of Jan I would give the slx from Gardeners a bit of thought.  About as light as my 17'xtel and more rigid than anything.

Forgot to say, I think the SL-X has a length of 26' so a reach of 30'.  Not bad for about 1.5 kilos.
