Super Tough 25ft Outdoor Flagpole Kit

Received the product in ample time. Good packaging & assembly instructions. Wrong truck shipped initially (2" shipped was too small but correct 2 1/2" shipped within a week), initial quality; easy to stack pole & take down. Sufficient lite weight but appears to be sturdy. Very pleased thus far.

Very pleased. Looks great in front of my property. Installation was enjoyable knowing what I was going to achieve.

The gold ball at the top of the flagpole was broken when we received it. Have reached out to customer service twice to get a replacement sent and have yet to hear back from them. Disappointed.

100 percent satisfied.

kit came ready for assembly and everything has been sturdy through some strong winds and heavy rain. Worth every penny.

Let me start by saying the 3 stars are based are based on the price of $140 I paid for this. Even at that, 3 stars might be a little generous.

1. Ground sleeve is short. It's barely OK if you are not planning on pouting the concrete any higher than ground level, but if you want to have the base raised at all you will need another one. The base of the pole seems to fit pretty tightly, but there is just enough play in it that I can attach a pipe level to it and see movement in the bubbles even a foot above ground level. However, there is not enough room to put sand down the tube to stabilize it.

2. The pole looks great, but the swedged fittings allow for sway. I raised the pole on a breezy day, and I immediately noticed that there was noticeable movement at the swedged joints. I could see the movement looking up the pole. Between the movement in the sleeve and the movement at the swedges, there was probably 4" of sway at the top of the pole in a strong breeze. I decided not to use one of the pole sections because of the height of my house, so I am getting that much movement in 21' pole. I could hear the movement in the joints as I stood next to the pole. I took the pole down, and my plan is to add construction adhesive to all of the swedges to stabilize them. I'll update this review later on how that works.

3. The halyard that come with it is pretty thin. I would probably be fine, but I had some better line at home and upgraded to that. Nothing wrong with the quality of what was included, but I wanted something a bit more heavy duty. The clips to attach the flag are plastic, which I didn't like. I had already had some brass clips, so I used those.

I am skeptical about the cleat it doesn't seem to be very substantial. I'll if it holds or if I need to replace it.

I knew this was not the strongest pole out there from when I bought it, so I am not really surprised or disappointed that I am having to shore it up. If my additions work, I will have a good looking strong setup. If not...well I knew what I was getting into from the other reviews.

I have purchased this pole assembly. but unfortunately the weather hasn't cooperated and to date I am unable to complete. Someone suggested that when your assembling the pole sections try and fit a single piece of plastic pipe (pvc) inside of the sections of the flag pole. Try to get a piece that fits snug or as tight as possible without making more work for yourself. If you do decide to install "set screws" between each section to keep them from spinning the screws will now have something to grab and screw into. It sounds easy enough and cheap enough that with alittle luck it just might work and protect Ole Glory and thats reason enough 4 me !!! (Almost) flyin hi !!

I have had my installation up for about two years now. The problem is, the five foot sections when put together do not have an inter lock to keep them from twisting inside each other where they come together. In windy weather the sections will twist and when they do, the rope that holds the flag up will get twisted around the pole. What I have noticed over a period of time, the more the wind causes the sections to twist in each other the easier it is for the wind to twist the sections and more often this situation happens do to ware and friction where the sections connect together. What I am planning on doing, when the weather clears, is pull the flag pole out, lay it down on a flat surface where I can work on it. I will then drill small holes in each section where they come together and install sheet metal so they will no longer be able to twist in the wind. Lesson learned, I thought I was saving time and money getting the pole in sections. I should have bought a straight pole in the first place. It would have saved me a lot of time and grief.

Ordered to have a backyard flag and wanted something relatively inexpensive but halfway decent. Found this to be easy to install, looks good and happy with the results. Like it well enough that we're ordering another for the front yard.
