                    Plastic tip was a mistake, otherwise seems like a decent pole
                    Bought this today to clean some snow off my solar panels, an figured I could use it in the summer to clean them off. put a squeegee on it and cleaned off 3 panels and on the 4th the plastic tip cracked right off. Why would the tip be made of cheap plastic? if you're going to make it out of plastic at least have a way to replace it. absolute trash, I've had my wooster 12 foot pole for 10 years now and it is still around. this one is more expensive and is made of cheap plastic. I'll be returning tomorrow to buy the wooster 23 foot pole.

                      Terrible design.
                      Garbage consumer grade pole. The colar is plastic and not replaceable. Mine broke and now it's straight to the garbage because it can't be fixed. What a waste of money.

                        Works well and long enough to reach the top of my solar array (12 panels). Haven't had to extend to the max length but it's stable a bit of flex but that's to be expected.

                        Used with Unger squeegee attachment and with Waterflow scrub brush. The pole gets a little wabbly when fully extended with brush attached. Does a fantastic job with the squeegee.

                        Good for cleaning solar panels on roof
                        I bought this to clean a bunch of solar panels on my roof. It’s 24’ long which long enough to deal with 3 vertical rows of panels. It’s not perfect but it works and saves me the trouble of going on the roof. I can clean the pollen off the panels on a ladder.

                          Plastic screw attachment tip cracked
                          The screw tip attachment part cracked in half after only less than a month of use. I was using it to pick lemons off my tree. I believe the tip should also be of a stronger material like the aluminum pole. The pole and the clips were great, but the plastic tip is faulty/weak. Returned to store from online order. Will look for a better quality product.

                            Right out of the box, this extension pole is 82" long, fully retracted. Fully extended it's 24' long. I attached a window washer wiper to the end of the pole & was able to clean a 3rd story window. Fully extended, the unique triangular design of the pole shaft sections, kept it's integral shape, even when positioned horizontally. The tip has a common spiral thread, so I was able to screw on my non-Unger attachments, including: Apple picker, pad duster, window washer, wiper & brush. The tip end also has a push button lock, designed for Unger's specialty attachments. The shaft extension sections are precisely engineered & slid smoothly out of & back into place. Each extension section was held securely in place with it's flip open release, flip closed locking clip mechanism. This made adjustments to the length very quick & easy, especially when I was picking Apples & had to adjust the length frequently to reach many different heights. I attached a pad duster to the end & easily dusted very high walls & corners, inside my home. The bottom of the extension pole has a comfortable non-slip rubber grip & a hole for hanging the pole for storage. About midway up the bottom section of the extension pole is a 9.5" long section of soft, foam rubber hand grip. It made holding onto the pole very comfortable & added to the control of the pole. I found it very easy to control extending & retracting the extension pole sections by standing it straight up, vertically, while making the extension, or retraction of the pole sections. This is a highest quality extension pole.

                            Do you have areas needing cleaning or painting in elevated places where a ladder is impractical? Or maybe you just don't like ladders for these chores. Well my home is on a lake and the living-room faces south and has a 24 foot high vaulted ceiling and a full wall of glass. It's great because it allows a maximum amount of sun light all winter and helps heat the house. But it also lets you see how much dirt and grime is on the glass. And I don't do ladders well anymore. This telescoping pole lets me clean the windows with relative ease while remaining securely on the ground. I've had another that's quite old. To telescope it, you have to loosen the sections via a screw clamp. It wasn't very convenient. This pole has easy to use levers to lock the sections in place to give you the right height. And the screw tip accepts all standard size attachments such as squeegees and paint rollers and dust magnets.

                            Extra long (18 feet) extension pole that is useful for long reaches - like cleaning windows on 2-story houses. I wanted the extra length first to avoid standing right under the window and getting dirty, and second the ground slopes away from the house, so you need more reach than you would from the inside. This pole is made in three sections. It collapses to about 6 feet and can be extended to 18 feet. You can adjust it to any length you want in between. It has the classic threaded end for accessories and includes the newer type of locking cone for those type of accessories. I used it with a combo window washing sponge / squeegee head (not included) to clean and squeegee the windows without having to change tools. The clamps make it easy to adjust the length. The triangle shape for the tubing is nice as it keeps one tube from spinning in the other tube. The lower section has a foam grippy part that is easier to hold onto when it gets wet/soapy.
