Another alternative: http://www.screwfix.com/p/karcher-telescopic-lance-4m/75182

At 4 metres it's a bit shorter than some extendable lances but it is ok for run of the mill houses to reach fascia/gutters.
I have one myself but to be honest rarely use it because I can't be bothered lugging the pressure washer around so usually just wfp fascias/gutters.

Yes.
But i've only used it a handful of times.
It does do the job, but will be a bit of a stretch if you need to reach guttering above conservatories/extensions etc.
But for normal houses it is fine. And does not feel heavy, I would say it's not much heavier than a Harris Pole to use.
Plus it comes with a shoulder strap which is quite comfortable.

Make one fro a harris pole as you can buy the hose and all the fitting separate. I will be selling the one I have and making one soon.My power washer is a 150 bar and don`t need one with as heavy hose.
