yup one with a lid ... i got 2 from window cleaning warehouse when i was trad.

only thing is if you leave lid on for a day or 2 it stinks when you take it off.

i dont like the ninja , i bought one and the boab for it ,

they had a problem with the quick release end clips , when i wiped the blade my microfibre use to get stuck on the end clips it wasnt a smooth wipe of the blade.

it also released the end clip when i wiped it so i was constantly re locking it , after a while it wouldnt lock .

i contacted unger about it and they said they were aware of the prob so they sent me a load of replacement end clips .

also the blade didnt fit the boab properley .


i would google the ninja and see what others say .

Wagtail also very good and I use the wagga 90% of work for out right speed..

an unsung hero is the SYR tiger sleeve ,you can buy it at www.windowcleaningwarehouse.co.uk

i stumbled onto a fact that after its washed twice the fibre strands become like scrim and work great
