I used this to get to the top of the greenhouse, then to wash our windows. The brush works surprisingly well, it's nice and soft and so can do the window frames as well as the glass. It doesn't need very much water, so you don't get an accidental soak which had been one of my fears. The pole seems quite light weight and flexes slightly but seems sturdy enough and can reach really high- up windows. The squeegee is a little bit disappointing, it's tricky to assemble and spins around unbidden. I detached it after 10 minutes of trying. In my view, this squeegee could only be much use quite low down. I found that the brush head swivels which is irritating but not a job stopper: make sure you screw it on to the pole really tightly. Maybe another rubber washer would help a bit. The water valve provided is annoying, it should have a push-fit for 8mm nylon tube but instead is a male fitting with an external O-ring clearly intended for another type of fitting completely, and the nylon tube is being shoved up the centre hole which is accidentally 8mm ID; it doesn't work well because it's relying on friction between the slippery nylon and the slippery brass so keeps falling out regularly. But all said, I'm really pleased with this pole & brush because it's quick and cleans well enough for me. It can even scrub off moss and green slime if you don't mind a bit of a work-out.
