The TelesPro 20ft Kit is a versatile high-reach solution that includes four specialized heads: a chenille duster, a microfiber feather duster, a cobweb brush, and a fan duster. The 12-foot physical pole is made of 6063-T5 aluminum, offering a good strength-to-weight ratio for overhead work. Features include a standard 3/4-inch ACME thread, allowing the pole to be used with other household tools like squeegees or paint rollers.
Build quality and usability reports indicate that while the 12-foot length is great for reach, the pole can exhibit "oscillation" or flex when fully extended. For best results, it is recommended to use the flip-locks firmly but avoid over-tightening the plastic thumb-screws. The fan duster head contains an internal wire core that can be bent to fit specific blade widths, though it should be bent gradually to avoid stressing the metal.
For long-term maintenance of the locking mechanisms, applying a dry silicone spray to the hinges every few months can prevent the plastic from becoming stiff or brittle.
If you prefer a simpler, single-head duster that is easier to wash frequently, you might consider the OXO 52-inch Extendable Duster.
This multi-purpose kit is a key offering in our extendable dusters collection for comprehensive home maintenance.
