On the tread yesterday you took the mick, but try and find a way of using your pole but keeping the pole hose off the ground.The way i suggested is best.

I normally loop the hose around the hand that is at the butt end of the pole

My 24ft extel can reach all the second floor windows that I have in my round so the SLX should comfortably reach them.
I opted for the SLX 25 with a 30ft reach.

I've got 22' and am just short on a few skylights etc. I'm sure you'll be very pleased with your new purchase, it will soon pay for itself.

Slump I'm hoping that it will help with my neck as I seem to be straining it far too often.

I love it, lol
deffinately the pole I use the most now lol.
I used it on a conservatory roof clean today, made the job so much easier.
I also like the stiffness of the pole, you can actually get some good pressure on the brush to scrub.

so then you will look like the cool dude with his shades and new pole  8)

i still havent ordered mine yet as in no rush but i started looking at brodex cuz of the 3 yr warranty - think i will still go with gardiners tho.

swapping over to wfp soon and not sure if i should just save myself the money and go with brodex for now then get the slx when im up to speed with wfp

or do i go straight for it and get the slx

Before you use it, put the hose on the outside and get used to using it on the outside. imo.  :-X
