These wands are great. They work great on my dust extractor. I have been using these for years and they are the best. The only telescopic wand that I have and use came with my miele vacuum. It is metal and well made but not as light as these plastic wands. Cen-Tec was kind enough to ensure the 3 wands I bought extended and retracted easily as I have bad arthritic hands. The wand is so useful and Cen-Tec is great!!

This is a well made telescopic wand that is resilient and will not crack if dropped during the cold weather on a concrete floor. It washes easily and is lighter than the heavy metal wands. I bought two of these. One operates easily. The other is a little resistant to extending, but will break in over time with use.
