    Default kendra wilkinson pole

    so i just bought one but can't get it to be installed properly. Once you put everything together, you kinda twist it onto bottom for it to extend enough so it's tight. When I do that it's always tilted and I can not, no matter what I do, get it to be absolutely straight, so it'll stay and be safe. DOes anyone have one? I'm about ready to send it back... it also doesn't seem safe enough for me.

    Urgh, I had one and sold it. It sucked. Its the flat top plate thats the problem, if there is just one nick in your ceiling it will circle round and round and ya just cant get it flat.

    You have my sympathies.

    A Kendra Pole is exactly the same as an 45mm X-Sport, and is also made my X-Pole.
    I never ever thought X-Pole would bring out a pole that Id have doubts about, til I bought a 45mm Sport.

    Never again. Its Xpert or nothing for me from now on. But only if I cant find an old X on ebay or something, as I also prefer threaded tubes over these new XJoints.

    Lol I would be willing to shell out a few hundred for one to just screw into the floor and ceiling. I don't need it to be portable...just safe and sturdy would be great. There was another one, can't remember the name that I was looking at though. Let you know when I remember it.

    Yes! They do. Lol. Still not the one I was thinking. I was thinking of the Lil' Minx poles.

    With you there! Takes about 5 times longer to put up and a lot heavier. However I do like how the cover plate thing screws in at the bottom instead of being loose at the top.

    Yeah, personally I wouldn't trust anything other than an x-pole. To the OP if you wouldn't feel safe using it take it back, there's no point trying to save money on something you end up getting injured on because it's not sturdy.

    I just tried to take it back down and pack it so I can return it but guess what? they don't accept returns! great, now I have to sell it on ebay and I can't even take it down lol. I'm really mad, they were only like 50$ cheaper than the regular x pole, but I read reviews and all that stuff before. Plus I saw her use it on her show and it certainly looked safe to use. If I could only get it to be at 90 degrees against the ceiling, I could screw it tight and test it a little, but I cannot even get that far. HAs anybody had luck installing it?

    I got mine up once, it was fine for a bit, did a shoulder mount flip and it shifted. I only trust wide upper dome now, like the ones on Xperts and old X Poles.

    It took me over an hour to get it to what I thought was firm and safe, I also caught finger skin between two tubes trying to fit them over an Xjoint. The air was blue I tell ya!!

    Tell them it wasnt opened or used. Make sure to pack it up as it came. You may be able to get an exchange... so buy the xpert with it with only 50 bucks more.

    Was this the pole bought off the xpole store? If so, or if not, write them (xpole) an email/phone in and ask for a refund, explaining you want to upgrade you purchase since there was confusion. And ofc tell them it wasnt opened. But if was bought at a store that isnt xpole, talk to the manager and complain to them that you would at least want an exchange inorder to buy the xpert pole since there was confusion or it was the wrong pole and would still buy the other pole from them

    no, I bought it through amazon from some vendor, not sure who. I called a service number and they gave me the x pole hotline number and told me to call there. I'll try once I'm back in the states. Just so pissed off...

    After three years of owning my Lil Minx pole, I'm ready to move on to the Xpert pole. If I had known then what I know now, I would have bought the x pert pole instead. My Lil Minx was fine at first but now its causing a problem with the ceiling. There's shit coming out of the ceiling whenever the pole moves a bit. I do climb on one side more than the other but this shouldn't be happening at all. X pert pole doesn't require a hole in the ceiling.
