gardiner CLX 27

Has anyone ever owned or used a Gardiner CLX 27 if so are they any good?

I bought a cheap pole like an idiot and snapped part of it already.... so looking to put a bit more money into a better pole this time any opinions would be good! 

Thanks for reading ?

I have had 2, probably not as good as the SLX but for the price difference I will be buying a CLX next time

The CLX22 + 4'  as described is £222 compared to the CLX27 that is £258 There isn't much difference weight wise compared to the SLX but the SLX25 is £300, the SLX is a fair bit stiffer though.

The clx is very wippy compared to a six if you can afford it go for that if not the clx is a good pole and they last quite well

I had the Clx 22 as my first pole along with the 10. Not bad pole. Good value for money.

Window cleaning will at some stage in your life cause you some of joint issues. The clx is a great pole, but using a stiff, light and correctly sized pole is key to preventing/delaying injury. Invest in the best pole you can I would advise. Cheaper poles break quicker so uneconomical anyway. Go for the 22 +4 like part timer said.

Use an SLX 30 as regular pole with extreme brush. Lot of my work is new builds with 3 rd. story in roof space so would take too much time swopping poles. Only put first pole out 3/4 way. Stops whipping effect.You get used to the weight and I’m past retirement age.
