I could clean it off with my Kärcher pressure washer

Never heard of it, so did a bit of googling.

"Which" report is generally favourable, but it's pricey - I'll stick to my squeegee.

I have one Ann, and it's one of my better gadgets, worth every penny isn't it :-D

I got mine off the Ideal Shopping Channel - £49 and on three easy payments

I've done a couple of windows with it this evening and I'm well impressed - you're right Lynda - worth every penny

We have many windows, and until I got the Karcher, never had the time, or the energy to do them all in a day, last week, did them all, well pleased, and they really do sparkle :-D

That is cheap compared to buying it in the shops..£99-99 in shops.Had a look at one myself.

I will not pay nearly £100 for a gadget when I have only 3 big windows.

Sue in Leeds there are different size window vacs maybe the one you are looking at is the biggest one which also has extra spares.

That's a lot to pay Sue. I bought one after we had a discussion about them on my Aussie thread. I'm very impressed with mine. It cost the equivalent to what AnnC paid for hers.

Lesley and Sue.

No it was not the biggest one and no spares with it..
I couldn't handle a big one as my hands are christmas crackered.

I got one a few months ago.

Wonderful gadget!!! :-D

Windows, mirrors, glass-top tables, countertops, cooktops......... I keep finding new ways to use it.

I use dishwashing liquid in it.

There's another thread on here somewhere.

:-D

AnnCardiff Report 19 Jun 2013 00:22

it's the basic one - no extras - I used washing up liquid as I read some reviews that said it was just as good as the Karcher product

I have one Ann, great not just for widows but also showers, bathroom and kitchen tiles. So easy to use, my house is south facing and window cleaning was a nightmare when the sun was shining easy peasy now. I would not be without mine, worth every penny.


Hope all is well with you and yours xxx.

Love mine....got it almost 2 years ago as saw it advertised on shopping channel,but googled it and bought ...I think from Amazon...as I have big windows and a big conservatory and hate cleaning windows.

Well pleased...anything that cuts out hard work now!!
