thats it now tom!!youll never go back to unger,brodex or any of the other heavy poles!! ;D ;D ;D

SLX is the best pole for regular domestic and small/medium commercial.the difference in weight,rigidity and closed length is amazing when you ve been used to a heavier pole! ;) ;D

I received my slx 25 on Tuesday with extreme brush. What a piece of kit!  :o I now believe the hype. Well made and solid but much lighter and much easier than my previous unger at 25ft. And no whip!  ;) Much much better than my clx18 on normal houses. I now only carry 1 pole for ground floor to 3rd storey. My only qualm, which was my fault, was not ordering a bit extra pole hose. It just comes with enough for the pole plus a couple of metres. But that was my fault!

Must say the extreme brush surprised me a lot. Got it out of the box and thought "no way will this work" so small and light, but again, I now believe the hype. I may go back to standard brush on first cleans though.

Again, Well done Gardiners.
HOWAY THE LADS!!!!

 A very good brush to use and i believe a newer version is coming out soon.

will a slx 22 only reach 3 bed semi type houses, iv only got a few houses that have high windows,and 2 houses that need treble ladders as my twins are just short on couple of windows,but wouldnt want to have to buy 2 slx's so would you just play safe and get slx 25 even tho 95% is basic semi work
