Dry work + value Choose high-carbon steel for a lower-cost, crisp working blade you will clean and dry
DRYWALL · DUST CONTROL
What do you already own—and where is the work?
Hand-scale patches Reachable joints and feel-critical finishing; wet/dry vac required

What is the tallest recurring work?
Standard rooms + flat ceilings 4.5–6.5 ft pole; the only QuickReach that collapses under five feet
Tall rooms up to Hyde’s 16-ft claim 5.5–8.5 ft pole; more reach without carrying the Max all year
