Telescoping Aluminum Portable Flagpole

Cheap flagpole, but great value. Can't find another 20' pole for this price.I bought one of these a couple years ago for music festivals and camping. Worked good enough for 2 years, sometimes the sections get sticky but I always got them free. The plastic rings do nothing, it just seems to mess up with you "loosen" the sections too much. You have to "tighten" them with some muscle otherwise I rarely have a section collapse. It's not hard, but a child couldn't do it tight enough.At full extension with a flag, I feel like this is good for maybe 20mph wind tops. I've had TWO 3x5' flags going on a breezy day at a music festival, and this stayed up straight. I figured screw it, threw this in my truck bed at ~8' high, put a flag on it, lets see how strong it is. The top bent in half somewhere between 30-40mph lol. Bought another one because it still works perfect while stationary.So yes this has very thin aluminum walls and it can snap, but just be smart with it and you can't beat the price

I used it with a 2ftx2ft flag and it was great as a totem at a music festival. It is easy to expand and close down. Light weight. It does fall down sometimes because it's a twist lock. so I had a few times when it came down but I was able to very easily fix it.Also went through alot in 3 days and looks great. we will definitely be using it for years to come!

I used this pole for my camper to display some home town pride. It's nice in the fact that it collapses small for storage but with the slightest wind, 2 flags seem to be too much for this little guy. Handles one flag ok but "designed" for 2.

i tried and returned a few, this one is light weight and sturdy enough to survive a windy beach day. i am very happy with this purchase. i wish these flag poles came with a carrying case for easy transport. but this one is great. i am satisfied

I announce at running road races and triathlons and have had this item of more than 2 years. Event managers are so happy to have the flag they didn't think to arrange for. Many of these events venues are next to open water and lots wind. I've used it well over 100 times and it is still in great condition. Yes it bends in the wind, that's a feature. If it didn't bend it would break, that's how you design things that are light. Same reason airplane wings flex a lot. I have lightweight flags and made sure I didn't buy heavy fabric flags. The lighter the fabric the faster the wind makes it flutter. The flutter offers less resistance.Why is mine in such good condition? I learned long ago that even well meaning people handle stuff too roughly. And nobody cares about treating my gear as I would. I let no one handle this or most of my sound equipment. It's a mindset. Most people don't take good care of their stuff, how can I expect them to do a better job with mine.This item is extremely functional because it has pieces that slide inside each. Bend them and you'll ruin it. If you can't figure that out going in, don't buy it. Your alternatives don't exist, unless you want something so big and so heavy you probably won't use it a second time. I'm writing this today as I buy a 2nd one to keep in the trunk of my other car.I either zip-tie it to fences or poles, or if my vehicle is close I use the optionally purchased tire mount that you just drive your car tire over. It's a flat plate with a vertical section of pipe which screws into the plate. Roll the wheel over the plate and you have your flag up in a minute. I suggest you always use the driver side front wheel or you could drive away without taking down the flag.

Don't leave up in any wind, only had 1 flag on it broke in two. Very cheap, spend the money for something else.

I became a member of the Patriot Guard Riders after they escorted my 97 year old father to his graveside service. Daddy served as a Navy Signalman during World War II.One of the members told me to purchase a quality 3x5 foot flag and get a telescoping flag pole.He sent me the link to this flag pole. He told me it was a good price and looked like it would work well for me.Most Patriot Guard Riders travel by motorcycle and their flag pole collapses to fit into their saddle bags.Since I travel by car to join the Patriot Guard Riders when the group does a Flag Line, I just put my flag in the car.It holds up well when the wind blows and it is sturdy. It is light weight and easy to use.I highly recommend this flag pole. ENJOY! 🇺🇸

I think everyone who wants a flagpole for their camper or fish house expects something robust and good quality which this pole is. However it’s at best 1 1/4” at the base and gets skinnier the taller you extend it. Any bit of wind will destroy this pole . It’s not suitable for two flags like the description states. Look extra hard when hunting for a flag pole for your camper or fish house. This one is best suited for in a gymnasium where there is zero wind.
