Yes we have one , found it very good at our previous house where we were troubled with condensation on some of our windows since moving haven't had to use it.
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

We've got 2 believe it or not in our house, and we use them in the shower rooms after use on the glass and walls in the wet bits, to keep them looking brand new.
I is nearly 8 years old and it's really needing replaced, as starting to sound a bit strange.
Other is only 5 years old and still going proper.
Excellent product in my eyes!  :y :y

Yep , they work well.
Karcher only though , I bought one from Lidl or Aldi and it was dreadful .

Yes, confirming the above.  Mine came with the extra bits for cleaning the windows.

It does no more than a £1 squeegee from Asda. You just have to clean the water from the sill with a squeegee.

I dont get much on the sill, and what i do gets sucked up with the vac.


I was sceptical, but as mine was stupid cheap, I got it anyway.  And concede its much better than I thought...   ...as long as your surfaces are reasonably flat.

Yes, that's the whole idea ;D No water on the sill with a vac, but plenty with a squeegee. A quick wipe with kitchen roll and it's gone. Pointless bit of kit, the vac.
