No's 6, 7,8 and possibly 9 if on a steep slope down from building or awkward access.

25 foot is the highest i go with an SLX pole....

any higher then its an xtreme 47....

 SLX poles are heavy and very bendy when you get past 25 ft
price higher/work harder!

I've got 2 extra sections I add to my 25ft SLX which takes it around 34ft I suppose?
To be honest that's as high as I would go with an SLX as you do notice it bending at full length especially if you're reaching across an extension or a conservatory to clean a window.

your not wrong mate!i used to have a 40 SUPERMAX(older version).it was basically a 40ft SLX.I sold it to deege (on here) as it was a nightmare for cleaning solar panels/skylights on 2 storey roofs(too bendy and heavy).ok for straight up windows but nowhere near as easy to use as an xtreme pole though......

I have an SLX 35 and it's usable in light to no wind, just.

30ft I'd say is the max for an SLX to do a good job.

Having said that and having used a similar length (extended length which is shorter than their advertised extended length) Ionics and Facelift poles, the SLX at the same height beats them hands down.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.
