i have one of these alluminium poles exactly the same as in picture, 45ft length. Its good, its abit awkward with the clamps but if you set them up right- its only about 2-3 turns to clamp it, a little fiddly but strong poles and what im doing is taking it in 3 sections of several sections, depending on the job you can just fit them back together, but its pretty good and strong and light with 3 or 4 sections, a little harder to manage with all the sections but once you get it up if doing high windows its not very bad at all. i find it better having the hose velcroed along the outside for changing / taking out sections- the goose neck is very strong and the brush is very good- the pencil jets are pretty powerful, would have preffered spray jets, but then again would have preffered a superlight 2 !
its good - there are a few cheaper on ebay... from stream.
i would say good for high work, i would prefer it on low work but the brush head is quite big- good for conservatories... you can oft for a smaller brush on the ebay ones.
i would definately get a superlight 2 next time, carbon fibre or fiberglass, fiberglass flexes much more, aluminium doesnt flex as much but is harder to lift up and down to the windows. nice and strong anyway.
