Well my China pole is the first out of the van , the 25ft and 30ft SLX's are left in their just for the height .
In 2 months I've not had to Readjust or do anything .
Every time I get the slx's out I have to mess about with HORRIBLE. Clamps , or just hate using them . Several persons from other forums agree who have PM , me .
If money is no problem then the gardiners stuff is better if your not fussy about clamps.
But some of you comment and haven't even touched them.
At least I've got both products , and choose the way I work .
To he the gardiner slx is like buying a Bentley - Tate sections etc , but with a fiat engine - the clamps .
But I guess this is "I love Gardiners Forum " .
