Why buy a CLX-4?

Use a bit of aluminium tube; or a broomstick.

Better still use an old worn out pole section and cut it to 4ft long

because i like to have a proper pole and i am not tight like most of you  ;D ;D only £34 mate  ;)



I have proper poles where I need them - 18ft and higher.

A bit of broom stick you can find for free - why chuck away £34 for nothing?
tell Alex then that i chuck away £34 for nothing  ;)

Dear Alex,

Ben M chucks away £34 for nothing.

Yours sincerely,

I use one of those broom/mop sticks with a threaded end available from supermarkets.  The standard angle adaptors fit on them perfectly.  A few feet of (external) hose.  Job done.

i wouldnt personally buy a 4 ft pole but why all the slating because ben decides he wants to buy one? ::)roll

half a day a week is quite a lot of bungalows.

ive only got about 4 bungalows on my round so i just use my main domestic pole.

at £34 its hardly gonna break the bank!itll come in handy for cleaning the van as well.

my short wfp is a converted unger optiloc trad pole with vikan brush.i use it exclusively for cleaning my van and car.


best wishes to you all

I intend getting one yes I have plenty of old rubbish poles that could be cut down to length.
But for the price why would I.
Perfect for bungalows + tight spaces and cheap as chips.
Would Alex produce and sell one if there was no demand I think not.
You wont get lighter to clean bungalows.

That bit in red - yes you will get lighter; tho' I don't believe that matters too much at such a short length.

True but will it look as good and be as handy to use.
Your right even a D.I.Y. pole at that length wont be much different in weight but if your using a 22 or 25 slx
there will be.
I don't think rigidity matters at this length so theres no point in a slx4.
If you had to clean a number of bungalows which pole is better a clx4 or slx18.
I have a number of bungalow fascias to clean and this pole is a perfect size for fronts and backs.
Would I pay a £100 or more for it hell no but for £40 why not.
