Title: Still can't decide which sill brush! ...

Much prefer a sill brush, personal preference I suppose.

Just been using vikan ones but like the look of gardiners ones.

I realise they are weedy etc ...

Gardiners are nice and light but like you say mine is missing a row at least on each side and I am not full time on the windows.

mine also had this problem, it didnt take long to happen neither probably a month i guess.

it got relegated to fascia & gutter /conny roof cleans.

the jets on them are also higher so u have to slightly alter your routine.

I been looking for a brush too .

I currently use an ionics dual trim but the bristles are a hard plastic type but it cleans well .
Also using a a vikan sill brush for PVC cleans etc .

Was looking a gardiners but after a while they look worn out was also thinking about a tecbuk brush ?

I find the support and the outer edges of the brush collapse and you loose control of the brush it seems to wobble and not sit on the glass well. One needs the brush to splay but no collapse on the left and right outer side. If it was up to me I would pot more bristles on the last two holes on the r/l hand sides and point them more outward. I feel this brush need more development but don`t tell the designer.
