S-Union Thickened Telescopic 16.5 Feet Pool Pole, Upgraded Heavy Duty Aluminum Swimming Pool Cleaning Pole, Adjustable Length 6.5 to 16.5 Feet, Universal Pole for Skimmer Net Rake Brush Vacuum Head

The weight of this is excellent, and it works great with all of my attachments. It’s probably the sturdiest handle that I have purchased. I highly recommend it and would definitely buy again. But I don’t think I’ll need to for a while because this is something that will last, quite some time!

Excellent quality and well made

These are advertised as being the “thicker” 1.3 mm aluminum instead of the standard 1.0 mm. I measured them with a digital caliper and the thickness was more like 1.15, not 1.3, but still a lot better and thicker than my old pool poles. I had recently ordered a different brand which was advertised as being 1.3 mm, but when I measured them they were less than 1.0. I returned them.The locking mechanisms are easy to turn, yet hold strong.There are 3 sections that slide into each other, so the 3rd section (closest to you), has the smallest diameter and will bend the most when fully extended. Although it stretches to 16-1/2 feet, I will probably not use it beyond about 14 feet. It would be better if it were only 2 sections, but two section poles in that length are hard to find and very expensive.MyOnly complaint is that the side holes where you attach your net/brush seem a little too large, and the tools wiggle around too much. Eventually, this could cause the holes to wear even larger. I corrected this by pushing a thin strip of electrical tape into the hole to take up some slack.All in all, good enough that I bought a second one.

So far so good. Went together easily works properly. Length locks into place with a few easy twists.

The pole arrived in perfect condition as there was a rubber insert in the attachment end of the pole to prevent it from crushing in transport. The pole itself feels extremely sturdy yet light enough to not feel cumbersome. Plastic on the telescoping locks is high quality and the locks secure tightly but yet are very easy to operate. We have only used it twice so far to vacuum our pool but it has worked great so far!

Worked normally, but then you can tighten it till your blue in the face and the pole will still collapse on you.

Got this to use around the lake to grab stuff out of the water. Fits the net, loop, etc just fine. Expands/collapses just as it should. Great reach.I would use this to pull a person out of the water, but may help them get to the side of the pool/boat. I use it for smaller items and it is just what I needed.

I bought this to use with my Pool Blaster Max Vacuum and I am completely satisfied with its sturdiness and ease of operation. I have a 27’ above ground round pool and I only need to extend this around half way to reach the center, if you do extend this fully it still feels satisfactory sturdy.
