My nano pole lasted 14 months,snapped a section today and another has splintered....

Cons are the base cap is rubbish and had worn through.

The clamps are not as good as gardiner clamps as much as I convinced myself they are OK.

The sections never really glided as smoothly when extending and collapsing even after 14 months.

The  gardiner carbon gooseneck doesn't fit very well in the top section(had to put tape around it to get it to fit).

It's slightly heavier than an xtreme but it's still knackered after just over a years use.

So I'm using an SLX and an old xtreme 25  (which is
a few different sections cobbled together) until my new one arrives hopefully by the end of the week....

Just under £700 with delivery these days

Cool story bro. I'm eating peanuts and drinking beer, if anyone's interested

Lol you do blow hot and cold the other month the nano pole was the best thing since sliced bread and the extream was over priced rubbish , now you have said the total opposite, you do loose credibility by theses contradictory posts .

Another U turn?
Wasn’t unexpected if I’m honest!

Good to get some feedback about the nano pole.

At £700 i would rather buy 2 SLX 22 ft and still have some change left over.

I don't give a f**k what you think mate!

I'm not scared of trying something different or changing my views at all...

The truth is its not really lasted much longer than an xtreme pole...

I still think the xtreme pole could be improved(stronger and slightly heavier carbon)but its still the best for the easiest work day....

Each to their own but a 22 footer is too short for lots of my work so pretty useless really!

The nano is OK but it's not really lasted much longer than an xtreme.if it lasted 2 or 3 years I would of bought another but as its only £100 more for an xtreme I went with that......

No problem!😄

To be honest Daz, from some of your previous posts, i think you could probably get longer from both your nano or extreme pole if you gave them a bit more tlc. Both Gardiners and xline recommend stripping them down and thoroughly  cleaning them out, ie getting some wet wipes scrunched into a ball and pushing through each section with a cane. I do it once a month and the amount of crap that comes out this time of year is unbelievable. Also, a strip of electric tape at the base of each section is very good at preventing the splintering. I got 20 months from my Nano before breaking the 1st section my pole almost certainly gets more of a work out than yours  given your part time hours. Mine only broke because i dropped it with part of the 1st section extended as well, my fault more than wear and tear. How did yours break?

And this is the trouble....all that money on a pole that breaks as soon as its dropped, bonkers 

[Stoots]

Strange youve posted this as i was also thinking the same myself today....

After thinking my nano was invincible i managed to snap the top section a few weeks ago. To be fair i dropped it on a corner of a step so it wasnt really the poles fault.

My base cap wore through months ago 

i still think its way more durable than an extreme, my extreme would have been in the bin by now, the clamps arent as good as gardiner in terms of ease of use but they are better for not spinning.

The sections on mine slide fine now but they did take a couple of months to do so.

Im on the fence, the extreme is the better pole but the nano is better value for money

The Extreme imo is the best pole you can buy in 2nd I would say the Ova High Mod,the latter is stronger and seems when handling very much stronger although that would have to be tested.  I would say it would win the drop test  though hence the slight increase in weight,that Ova is a very good quality pole-product quality in the hand that’s the Hi-Mod though.

He’s like a politician you can’t believe a word he says 😂😂 more u turns than the government

[NWH]

An Extreme pole extends incredibly well and drops down to the base section with ease I’ve yet to use a pole that does this from new,the Ova although a great pole doesn’t do this and only begins to slide back in the previous section when it’s had a fair bit of use.
The way the Extreme opens and closes would win the comparison in the above 2 poles although the sections don’t spin on the Ova weight would sway me to the Extreme every time.

They were even better for extending/collapsing when they had the raised bottom, middle and top clamping points. The downside was they didn’t last as long as you couldn’t clamp along the entire length of the pole section, only on the raised clamping points.

After so many years refining your work I’m surprised you need a 25’ pole for most of it.

If he worked full time it would only last seven months

Yeah I agree they were very robust over the clamping metal section  and as you say great for putting the pole up and down quickly,I’ve still got the one I had but did have to replace the top section but the pole lasted ages.
I think a lot of people at the time said it lasted longer than the previous version,my thinking was that’s why it went back I wouldn’t want to be selling something that lasted 2-3 times longer as a seller for obvious reasons.
