The older pair has worn soles but the uppers on both still look great. Ive gone to Home Depot, Lowes, and local hardware stores and no one carries a screw this long. 5cm/7. Great detailing. otherwise Ok. Well made, Easy to Handle, and Better design than Ordinary Swabs. I?ll get 1 or 2 that will last but never all of them. Word of Caution - Please note product contains the only headset. Hes currently in a 3 1/2 but these fit just fine with a little bit of room. 11 ceiling - 6 podium ladder was an absolute nesessity.
