I'd imagine you'd build your arms up using one of them. ;D

I have a customer that uses one to clean her inside windows (saves me a job). And her relative (a retired window cleaner) got one, too. I think he uses it to get rid of condensation, as much as cleaning windows.
I don't think they are heavy, either.

When a new window cleaner starts they get taught how to wfp and trad cleaning is an afterthought as the only trad we do is on the inside (other than on rare occasions) im thinking it'd be easier and more efficient to use one of these and not having to do any detailing for inexperienced windies when doing insides.
