We had been looking for a flag pole system for a while and had one for a short time, but the vendor could not deliver. So when the Flag Pole Buddy came along we where very interested and had a evaluation unit sent out immediately.
Our main concern with this product was the plastic mounting brackets, which we quickly found would not be a issue. The brackets are super strong and after some torcher tests proved this was not a weak link. We also really like that the kit included stainless steel mounting hardware. No rust to worry about!
Installation took all of about 10 minutes which includes mounting a lower holder bracket and the proprietary upper bracket to the roof access ladder. This upper bracket allows you to install the flag pole in seconds by angling the pole in a slot and than standing the pole upright and lowering into the bottom holder bracket. The pole is lightweight and anyone can install the pole once the brackets have been mounted.
The main kit includes a 3' x 5' American Flag, (2) flag clips, aluminum pole and a gold ball topper. In our evaluation they also sent us the optional solar globe which again we really where not sure about, would it throw off enough light and for how long.
Attaching the flag is made easy with the innovative spring loaded clips and we topped it off wit the solar globe. Be sure to buy an extra set of clips if you plan to fly a second flag. The flag included is really light weight and flies well even in light breezes and looked great as well!
When night rolled around we really loved the solar globe! We had campers all over the campground walking by to have a look as the globe change from red to blue to green and as it phased into these colors we realized we picked up purple, orange and turquoise! We where told by some die-hard observers that the globe faded out at about 2 a.m. long after we had turned in for the evening.
This is a product we are very excited to offer and we feel is worth every penny.
