  Good for use as an indoor flag pole and for what I needed, but not for outdoor use

  I bought this knowing it wasn’t going to be a particularly nice flagpole, and reading some of the other reviews on here made me think twice before I ultimately bought it. I’m planning to use it as an indoor flagpole for my office and I think it will suit that purpose quite well. The main reason I chose this one is that it is extendable and has clips on it, which is perfect of my use since most of my flag collection is grommeted, not sleeved.As many other commenters noted, the plastic on the topper is rather cheap and not particularly strong, and the way it was packaged would certainly make it liable to breaking if not handled well during shipping. The metal was also noticeably thinner than many other flag poles I’ve used, and is even a little thin compared to other extendable poles. As a result I would not recommend it for outdoor use in places with a lot of wind, or to use at parades or demonstrations, however I would recommend it for indoor use with a stand (Bolo recommended a perfect stand for this pole). I would also not necessarily recommend this for use with a particularly ornate or heavy flag, and stick with lighter polyester flakes, or maybe lightweight nylon.The fact that it is extendable is quite nice for my purposes. For an indoor display pole, it really needs to be taller than 6ft (6.5ft at a minimum) if you want to display a 3x5 flag. Since my office ceiling is not particularly tall, this will make it very easy for me to put it at the correct height so the flag isn’t too close to the ground, and still fit in my office.The only downside to that is that one of the sections does tend to squeak when I adjust it, but that’s not a major concern in the grand scheme of things.The topper can also be easily removed, allowing you to put a sleeved flag on it (provided the sleeve is big enough).So I would certainly recommend this if you are looking for a cheap pole for indoor display, but not for outdoor use.

  Perfecto!

  These flag poles are great! The extra two feet (eight foot) make all the difference. Easy to use. Sturdy. And attractive. I bought seven for events....

  Buy a base

  Well they got me. Shows picture of what I wanted was in a hurry, didn't read it. NO BASE, you have to order that separately from the POLE so the total you are paying for the set is close to $50. It does NOT come with the base that it shown sitting on. Also not pole has threads at bottom so you have to order the one that is in box"people also but this .....when purchasing..." Lesson learned, slow down when ordering from Bolo and read full description.

  Once I attached the flag the ring doesn't always stay up on the pole to hold it up.

  It's ok but not exactly what I was thinking. It also does not come with a base and I didn't realize it
