I see no one else replied... frankly I think most of these things are kind of "whatever" and I'd just go with the best price for the "second to lowest" tier of prices for these items. Does that make sense? Don't by the cheapest pole but don't buy the most expensive either. Depending on the item and frequency of use they could last one or two years to several years. I replaced my pole this year (only because of my stupidity, don't ask) and it was 7 years old. The brush, last year, 6 years old, whatever the pool store had in stock. The vacume head - original, 7 years.
Hope this helped?
