Still using 12 months later.

i tried glides a couple of years ago but now never do, only on low profile tiles to assist in airflow.

Bought on from these but in white and am using it at the minute. Yellow looks a bit unwell...........

Still not 100% convinced by it but it certainly makes wanding a hell of a lot easier.

Hi, I bought A white one and works fine but at the rate its wearing it is going to last about half the time as a greenie glide but it was half the price.

A Greenie, arguably the best, costs around £130, if you can get hold of one that is.
Silly prices but there we go, its the market.
Couldnt really cope without mine, so if it only lasts a year, £12 per week is good value..... but its still going strong.

Are glides any good on hard flooring thus saving me buying a hard floor wand?

brand spanking, still sealed and has the dog tag which all girl glides come with. not sure which other wands it fits, but it fits the bog standard hydramaster one and also the twin jet one from cleansmart, i would guess it fits most standard wands.

Definately a 'Greenglide' and probably fits the standard 'AW29' - 12" wand - but is it slotted - holed or hybrid??

Post by: derek west on March 09, 2011, 09:09:09 pm
its a hybrid but if you want slots just drill it.

Totally agree, after one use it was well scrathed up at the edges. This is obviously caused by the gripperods.

At the time I asked if it was the norm on here and was told by a few that it was.

Didn't like it then so I took it off. Tried again recently and it makes wanding so easy that I'm perservering for a while.
