To be truthful with having kids , running a footy team etc . The last think I'm going to do is mess about tiring a 3kg weight to the end of the pole .

Yes it works everyday , doing the basic up n down extension and descending that you need to do .
It's very rigid when fully extended to do over conservatories etc .

It's a very good cheaper pole
The extreame for a 18ft would be far far better .
But at a few ££ hundred quid more

Alex gets his poles from China too as do all the pole sellers.
Why shouldn't he look for well priced poles?
hes happy with them

[kempy]

How can the China pole compete with the dearness of the extreame .
The clamps I prefere -simple
The price I prefere
The rigidness - I can't compare or state my opinion . As I only have slx's and it certainly competes with them .

There very strong and compare with the weight of a slx .

The 45 ft , which I use occasionally is the BIG MONEY SAVER .

Some of you on here are total gardiner customers and that's fine . No problem . A good company to buy from .
But this was just a experiment of me buying from China , a experience , and I feel a good one and hopefully opened persons eyes up to another way of buying .

[kempy]

Some persons on here mate , are negative on any other poles apart from the gardiners.
Their obsession is unbelievable .
A product that produces another clamp-3rd generation that then needs additional threaded loctite bolts sent out to make them better , isn't right .
I'm sure gardiners will do another clamp - I'd imagine .

As I'm not obsessive with gardiners , or China poles , I'm interested on how good the aqua adaptor VLITE poles will be
Apparently lighter than a slx , and I'd imagine far better clamps

I'm sure the gardiner lover boys on here will be negative and bullish on these as well.

Kempy...take no notice matey,i have no interest in buying poles
because i diy..but far as im concerned you have just given an opinion

put pics upetc

No doubt its been very helpful to people who have genuine interest

The extreame 18ft pole is about £480

The China Classic £96


WOW WOW WOW

That's a big big difference , and that kind of money for a pole with awkward clamps is in my eyes not worth buying . For me

Others will buy the extreame , their choice and their be happy .
Just personal preference that's all guys .

Well said, Kempy.
He's posted about an alternative pole. You pays your money and you takes your chance. He likes them, he can't decide whether you do.
11 pages! Give him a break  .

Highly amusing.

I think I'm gonna throw all my Gardiner poles in the river. Go cold
Turkey and buy some brodex poles.

I shop with Alex mainly for the service. Ordered countless times and never had any issues.
