Plenty long enough for a VW T5 so chopped a foot or so off. Slightly annoying that two plastic figure of eight poles are just too short for our 'van so will cut each of the three poles to avoid having one very short pole, but that is not a problem.
I would say that this kit is essential if you have a drive-away awning.
Perfect for balancing long beams for painting etc. I wouldn't put much weight on them, and certainly not any sideways motion but sturdy enough for domestic use.
