What Customers Are Saying

The extension pole is well-constructed with an adjustable length and convenient quick-release mechanism for attaching rollers. Users report it helps them reach high areas without a ladder, reducing physical strain. The power lock feature allows secure length adjustment without slippage. However, some customers have experienced issues with the locking mechanism failing over time, causing the pole to collapse or not stay extended as needed. A few also note compatibility issues with certain roller frames. Overall, the product is viewed positively when functioning as intended, but the durability and reliability of the locking mechanism is a concern.

Disappointment in yellow

So disappointing to be let down by a brand I have trusted for many years. I bought the 4-8 foot and 6-12 foot poles and both within a year have stopped locking in position while in use. I have had to resort to using Wooster brand poles to finish the job. The lock in any position was the main reason I purchased these but it was the biggest let down.

Great pole but needs larger attachment adapters

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great quality pole but would like window washer pad and other larger opening accessories adapters. Like the Ettore window washer pad.

Broken

Would Not Recommend

I have two of these. One is still usable, but the other will not stay extended when I am painting. I’m disappointed because it isn’t more than a year old, hasn’t been used excessively, and it hasn’t held up the way I expect purdy products to.

Poor parts support

Would Not Recommend

I bought several of these units. The tip broke off and was told they don’t make replacements. The rest of the rods are perfect.

Will not go back to Threaded poles.

Would Recommend

Great added tool for painting. keeps roller from wanting to rotate on a pole. There is a shorter version (4 to 8 ft) that is great for walls

Awful design

Would Not Recommend

As a professional painter I paint everyday and quite frankly whoever thought of this design didn’t plan it out very well. It has no pin to lock it and after about a month it just wears down and won’t hold extension. I’ve switched to the Sherlock GT but even that won’t stand up to the test. Please make a quality pole that will last a longer period of time. Your last version was better than this but also inadequate. Better off buying a Wooster pole if you want to last longer.

Waste of money

I bought this six months ago and it already doesn’t work. It won’t grip the extension pole. Told by Craig at online chat we don’t offer anything to you to fix or replace. Thank you for letting me know not to buy your product.
