Re: Should I buy an SLX26 or CLX27?

Hi Mister squeegie,

The slx man (alex ) used to come on here and give good advice.The pole became the market leader without any advertising or promotion because of a few key users on this site.It drove, and still drives the other pole suppliers bonkers, but he was the first one to give us what we actually wanted- a light rigid all day pole with a short closed length that goes above twenty feet.

But you probably already know that.

My question is did you buy your pole from an american supplier or did you order one from the uk?
another 5 star q and a slumpy go to the top of the class

i've got an SLX mark one with plenty of wear in it sitting here doing nothing. Dare i say it I prefer the flexibility of the xtel fibre glass. sensible offers for the SlX considered. I'll happily send photos of the clamps closed and open so you can judge the wear yourself if interested.

was going to get round to ebaying eventually!!

I got a 60ft sl2 earlier this year, you can clean one handed at 40ft with it! :D

Had a 40ft facelift but it was difficult to use at full length.

Yes, I found it awkward to start with but it gets a lot easier after a couple of times. It's superb a bove 35ft BUT I wouldn't set it up for one or two windows. If you've got quite a bit of work at 40ft+ then it's deffo worth the investment IMO.
