U.S. Pool SupplyProfessional 12 Foot Blue Anodized Aluminum Telescopic Swimming Pool Pole, Adjustable 2 Piece Expandable Step-Up - Attach Connect Skimmer Nets, Rakes, Brushes, Vacuum Heads with Hoses

This pool works perfectly. It fits the net, brush and other accessories well. It’s not really fair that I gave it 4 stars for thickness but it isn’t super thick and you don’t want it that way or it would be way too heavy to maneuver around in the pool. So it’s really a 5 star! The end is coated so it cushions your hand nicely.

Most poles are multiple pieces, this is a 2 piece unit that slides one half inside of the other. Very easy to adjust for extension length with minimal effort

The end of the pole was bent when I received it. I bent it back into shape myself but it can get dents very easy. Easy to extend. I suggest a different packing method from supplier.

My previous pool vac pole was a three piece telescopic. Locks didn't work well and was tough to loosen, hated it. Gambled on this two piece telescopic and really like it. It's very sturdy, and the locking mechanism is great. Large enough to be able to get a good grip on. Also really like the different end grip. My old ones had basically a bicycle grip. Always dry rotted over time, cracked and fell off.

Ordered as a replacement for 23 year old pole, really enjoy locking cam on this one.

I've bought 2 of these. The first one arrived damaged but I kept it. 2 weeks later it stopped telescoping properly so now it was only useful for half its length. I bought another one and 2 weeks of use and now it's bent and will not close down. The funny thing is it was the highest rated one. But it is nothing but junk. Stay away or you'll be disappointed.

I am a 66 year old woman who put this together myself. Since the width of our pool is only 15 feet wide I decided to use all the tubes to make the center stronger. I am very pleased at how it came out. Our pool is free style shaped so we're still working out the straps to get it to come off more even. The tubes are really strong and it's a great product. It won't tip if you roll it slowly. I'm very pleased with this product!

When extended, I am afraid it will bend or break. I should of researched alittle better. It seems fine for light duty use. I have a large pool and should of bought the one I had previously.
