I used a fiberglass pole once. I would never use another.

It was so whippy it was difficult to control side ways movement across the top frame of the window. I think it was a 22' pole and belonged to another cleaner. He sold it on Ebay a few days later.

Honesty, don't waste your money.

Don't do it.

Buy the  hybrid version as a minimum.

I've seen these poles, they use the cner clamps.

They look alright but more expensive than gardiners.

I wouldn't bother just get a clx if you need a budget pole.

They were 20% off last week in the black friday sale so you've missed out. I was tempted to try one but bought a phantom instead.

4.5 Kg of Facelift did that , that’s why I had to get the SLX 35.  :D
