I used this pole for wfp for about 2 yrs. Its a great cheap pole but doesnt compare to the slx. Its so cold to hold in this weather and isnt very rigid at all. Been using an slx for a while now and its so much better. Full marks to the unger though its a great cheap starter pole

Hi

Iv'e had an Unger 5 section as you have for 5 years. I also have a further 2 extensions that fit between 4 and 5 and have never used them ever. Hardly ever use the 5 section either. Its too heavy and bendy. I only use the 4 sections on some apartments we do with Juilet Balconies every 6 weeks. The flexiness of them works to our advantage, but only with this job.

But I always have them in the van, just incase I accidently damage my SLX.

cheers lads.i think ill keep it for conny roof cleaning and if i get any bigger jobs.i think i should just go straight for  25FT SLX as i think thatll do all 1st floor and 2nd floor on my round.i cant wait to get into wfp after 15 yrs trad but itll be a while yet as im saving for a van first and then saving for a full van mount, no messing with backpacks etc.

i used a unger 3 X 2M pole for WFP for years

then for higher stuff the 3 X 3M unger

they work well and last for ever

i am still using the 10m telepole after two years, but i only have a handfull at full height

The teleplus is my only pole. I only have one job which requires section 4 and 5, otherwise just use the first 3 sections. It suits my round.

I  definitely would  change the Vikan brush (which I love) for the latest superlite if I was still using mine regularily.

if you didn't buy it, sod's law says you would have needed it - you weren't to know.
