Hi-Tech,Water Fed Window Cleaning Pole 4 mtrs,13 Foot Long With Built In Squeegee Blade And Soap Dispenser, Telescopic Hose Fed, Gutters Conservatory Extendable Extended Brush Kit

Looked first at the screw on extender pole version but went for the telescopic version instead and really glad I did. Even up on a ladder I found this easy to handle, even at full length and soon got the cleaning process down to a good routine. First a good dampening, then a good brush (great sized brush head), flipped over to the squeegee for any stubborn dirt which did the job nicely and a final rinse and brush then done. Took a while as looked like not cleaned for years but came up brilliantly. Very pleased with this brush hose and although a bit of an investment I think definitely worth it because of the quality which looks like it will last well, the ease of use and great results.

I took advantage of one of the first sunny and mild spring days to use this the same day it was delivered, and overall it worked very well.The pole feels well designed and well made, with comfortable foam hand grips on the bottom section. It arrives with all sections put together and the water feed hose inserted so there's just the cleaning head to screw on and its nozzles to be connected to get going.I decided to give it a workout on my "bog-standard" house, which has a flat-roof extension and a conservatory as well as 6 first floor windows. The pole is easy to extend by twisting the connectors between each section allowing you to pull out as much or as little of the relevant section as you need before locking it off. You can't pull the poles too far as they have in internal stop preventing you from accidentally pulling one right out.The technique I decided on involved using a bucket of soapy water to wash the upper windows and frames on each face of the house, then plug in the hose attachment and rinse them in one go. Although a little unwieldy, I found that retracting just one pole section made it easy to dip the brush head into the bucket and extend it again as you head towards the window. I found the oval-shaped bucket that came with my mop worked well. A standard circular bucket won't be as easy.In use, the poles are stiff enough that you can get a bit of a scrub on, although the brush head is very soft. This is great for not scratching or damaging anything, but you might find it doesn't have quite enough oomph for any particularly stubborn dirt. Also, I found that if you put pressure on the poles there's a tendency to slightly twist them in your hand, which can mean the brush head starts to loosen as it's just threaded on.When it comes to rinsing, I've dropped one star off this because there's no inline valve to regulate/stop the water flow. This means you either have to go to and from the tap in between rinsing and cleaning operations or (as in my case) use a hose with one of the automatic connectors that stops the water when you disconnect. A simple valve on the base of the pole (or even an inline one in the hose) would have been ideal. However, it's only a minor inconvenience and doesn't get in the way of the actual job in hand.The built-in squeegee is ok, but the angle is fixed and it's not very deep, so you have to get in the right position to be able to get any water off. It's better than nothing, but don't expect to be able to achieve an absolutely perfect streak-free finish with this one if you've got hard water, especially on the upper windows!The brush brought up the uPVC conservatory nicely, removing green algae from the underside of gutters and fascias. Cleaning its roof was fine, the pole giving a good reach to get to the back. The fixed angle of the brush head does mean that you'll probably need to be up on a step ladder or, like me, standing on a handy flat roof next to it to get the right angle for a good scrub.The internal water hose is clear plastic and quite thin, but the connector on the end fits a standard garden hose connector with no problem and it doesn't seem to get itself tangled up easily. I'd be a bit wary about dragging it against any rough render or against the corner of brickwork, etc, as there's no protective coating like a hosepipe so you could damage it easily.Overall an excellent purchase. Even on the first attempt, I had cleaned every window in the place plus the conservatory in less than 45 minutes. Recommended.

Great product well worth the price

Excellent sturdy product arrived well ahead of estimated time. assembly was minimal and simple. Brush head fed by clear plastic tube located up the inside of the aluminium tubes, metal connector on end to attach to hosepipe. Tried it out as soon as put it together. Connected up to my hosepipe but turned water on way too fast so went everywhere, turned it down to a gentle flow and it was fine. reached my upstairs windows when extended with no problem apart from the one over my porch as could not get close enough to reach the top, simply fixed by using a pair of steps. Obvious but ,you need to turn the water off before turning the brush around to use the built in squeegee or you will get a shower. A lot easier than climbing up and moving ladders. It did leave some residue spots on the window after they dried, but that is down to the water in the area. Overall a good product which I will be using a lot more often than my ladders and bucket and squeegee and leather. A little more pricier than some similar products on the market but after looking at other reviews of cheaper flimsy products, worth the extra in my opinion.

This is good once assembled but I have to say, I read the other reviews saying how bad the assembly instructions are, and I thought, how bad can they be? How hard can it be? Oh my! They are truly awful. The only way to do it is to make sense of the product photos on the listing and then use some common sense/luck. This would be such a simple problem to solve but there isn't any help on the manufacturers website. Shame, it's a good product let down by the customer journey.

The item is good and sturdy and will be ideal for cleaning our conservatory (especially the roof). The pole extension lengths are very good with strong clasps. However, the instructions for putting the item together are virtually non-existent. We gave up on the instructions and spent some time working out how to put the item together.

Works well, I use it on my solar panels as well and it’s simple to reach them with this. On the downside, it is heavy and the bladed side is unusable as the pipes restrict it. For the price it’s very good value, I’d been quoted £180 for a panel clean.

Put the unit together quite easy nice and strong not used yet looks and feels like a strong kit.Quite lightweight.
