My guess is that the washer unit bottle holds just enough liquid to do a small bungalow, inside and out. That means the build-up will be far less and the Window Vac would be more effective.

But, because it’s so easy to use, I’d will be happier to get out and do maybe just few windows at a time more frequently, especially when the spiders and birds have been around. Again, that’s true of any alternative method, too. I'd need to put in more prep to get all the stubborn marks off the glass before using the Window Vac. The washer struggled with, this which meant some squeegee streaks. Our windows had a lot of spider droppings and a few birds had flown by. Streaks started to get more noticeable as the washer unit cloth got dirty from the stuff it lifted off the windows so there’s a need to stop and wash the cloth if your windows are really mucky. There were areas I had to go back and re-do as using any squeegee needs practice to avoid streaks. But that’s true of any method, in my experience. The results largely depend on how careful you are. Very little preparation is needed it’s like using a cordless vacuum – because it's light and hassle-free, you're tempted to do it more often. One of the best features of this whole concept is ease, speed and efficiency. I had to keep an eye on this when indoors. The washer unit leaked a bit when I had to use it sideways but I didn’t want to over-tighten it and cause a different problem. Actually, this makes it very efficient no constant picking up and putting down. I had to adjust how I held the washer unit to prevent some mouldings causing discomfort. I worked with one in each hand and alternated as I went along. Now I know this, it’s okay, but a measuring jug of some kind would make life easier.īoth units were generally easy and very light to hold and to use. I had to measure it separately and pour the water in from a measuring jug. Instructions for the enclosed washing liquid say you should add 230ml water to the 20ml of liquid but the washer bottle has no measure on it anywhere that I could see meaning you don’t know what the volume is. A second surprise was that I hadn’t realised that I’d have to charge up one of the units before I could start so that set me back three hours until it was ready. This made for a bit of a guessing game to begin with. This isn’t blindingly obvious from the pictures on the box so I was a bit thrown when I started to scan the instruction leaflet and couldn’t quite make sense of what was what and how they fitted together.Īs with a lot of international brands, the instructions are illustrations with no immediate text so sometimes it’s hard to work out exactly what they’re trying to get across. I was surprised to find two units in the box rather than the one I was expecting: the washer and the squeegee/vacuum.
