Hi there! I happen to have several videos to help you decide. I’ll share them below.

As far as which brand I recommend X pole Lupit or lil minx also, platinum stages is a good option if you want a permanent pole. Little minx is a nice option. If you know you’re staying in your place and only need to adjust the height a little bit. It’s a single piece pole that adjust just and it’s really easy to set up and take down.

Here are the factors to consider all include my video on choosing a diameter just in case you find it helpful I know you said you’re pretty sure but the more knowledge you have the better decision you can make
