Paddy Galore! Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) bloody hell my purdy roller pole has just broke! the screw head has sheared in half, pee poor casting as i can see the metal grain has large granular lumps where it's snapped, that means the metal wasn't modified during the melting/casting process. just sent purdy an email about it, does anyone know what their customer service is like? that pole weren't cheap i've had to resort to the B&Q pole that cost me a tenner nearly 20 years ago :wacko: which funnily enough has had some serious abuse but still works fine, if a little gritty from all the masonry and floor paint.
