for me
i would be very hard pushed to beat the RT zensorflex pole
its as light as it can be
the short brush end can be cut as short as you want it to be, mine is about 3 ft
the length for everyday use on domestic houses is just right for me, though i can add further sections
yes its modular, but i like that, especially in the winter, with gloves on i dont have clamps or levers to worry about, even with my 5mm scuba gloves on i can put a modular pole together in seconds
i know people say " oh its a fishing pole, its not designed for our use, it isnt strong enough blah blah blah " but 30 months and counting, its lasted well enough for me
