Don't really know much about the pole or how much use its had previously but all sections open and clamp smoothly and appear to be in good condition. Tested at home and cleans well with no section spinning even when scrubbing thoroughily. Can be a nice cheap first pole with plenty of reach for somebody just starting out or as a 2nd back up pole. Comes with the brush, x2 pencil jets, gooseneck and hose.
