Good product, worked as described. I would only change one thing.. that is the locking tab on the end of each rod... It would be NICE if they had some sort of \"snug\" rubber (like an innertube type rubber - but custom shrunk) covering the buttons... Dirt and debris get inside of them and eventually they will fail, apprehensive of spraying any type of lubricant on them as it would just cause more dirt/debris to accumulate on/in it... OTHERWISE.... cleaned my chimney and did it like cake work... easy peasy..
