Is this very heavy while extended?

not really. The pole is plastic, but sturdy and the brush is not very heavy. Compared to an old metal pole I had this is much lighter. Hope that helps.

No, it is the same weight extended as it is closed. I'm a petite woman and I only need two hands to use it extended in order to steady it.

It is pretty heavy and we didn't have any problem with movement. Have long bed dodge towing 30ft travel trailer.

I never noticed it got too heavy while using. It worked really nice no regrets buying.

I have this model and I'd say it's less than a pound, so theoretically it's not that heavy. Of course the longer you use it the heavier it feels since your arm gets tired, but that's a separate issue...goodluck

Yes it is heavy, don't know the thickness. It does what it is designed to do. Works great glad I purchased it, no regrets.

Not sure, but for someone like me, who isn't strong, it seems heavy with the bulk and isn't easily portable (I am 125 lb. female).

It does get top heavy. and you would have to put a good amount of counter weight to push it over or pull it down on yourself. but its not worth the risk.

It is pretty solid and I am using it for my Epson projector and not sure how heavy that is.

I did not find it to heavy but again I had a place I wanted it so I don't every move it around. I have had mine for about 6 month it is very quite and works great.

It is not heavy, but it is a little thick. My husband did not find it comfortable to use and learned to transfer without it. It is very sturdy and will accommodate a heavy person.

It is a little heavy but I didn't think about it until trying to answer your question. It's heavier than many hair dryers but not overly heavy.

I haven't actually place this on a scale, but it is very heavy. It has easily held large softbox lights outdoor in light wind. I was impressed.

It should carry a pretty heavy payload several hundred pounds, but my use of it is around a hundred pounds and there is no strain whatsoever.

Yes, it's the only way I've tried it. It's a bit tricky to maneuver it on, but then, it's just fine. I just feel it makes the whole thing way to heavy.
