Get one
Brillant
Used to take the misses 3 hours to do the conservatory now less then a half hour
So easy to use
Don't buy the chemical cleaning stuff
Normal washing up liquid and a cloth / blade or a blade on a long handle from BM for a fiver give the windows a wipe over then scrape the cleaner downwards and over Lap slightly for a streak free finish
I bought one for work and the lads can clean 8 metres of large windows in half an hour so easy and saved me a fortune from £20 a week window cleaners
Occasionally on offer amazon / hot uk deals for £40 but worth every Penny

Wife said they are fine until you come down to the sill then they will not let you get to bottom of window, so you say turn it on it's side and go across that's ok unless you have collected water in them then it leaks out :-)

Got one. Does make cleaning windows fast. I use it regularly inside (though that is not required more than a few times a year). Also on the bathroom mirrors (where the kids have put pictures in the condensation that stays even after they are dry). Also on the glass shower doors (hard water area) and on the shower walls. We do have a window cleaner, but the dog paws the patio window to get in, so I do those outside too a lot more regularly than the window cleaner comes.
Solves a problem in that I can remove water better than any other way (wipers/cloths) and also use it for some cleaning window duties.
Mine doesn't leak on its side, unless the water tank is over it's fill level or not very well charged.

We have two quite large windows in dining and lounge, I can NEVER seem to get them smear free. Inside.
Yes, this is supposed to do that as well as removing all excess water. i tried a decent squeegee, but it either leaves overlap marks or too much water on the botton and cill...or both.
Anyway, she wants one...so there we have it

Well, it arrived.
Fully charged. Now....do I have a go tomorrow, or leave it for her?
And if I take the second option, how do I remove the dust from it before using? LOL
BTW: I have a sneaking suspicion that the very expensive cleaning solution for glass is none other than dishwasher rinse aid..............
