after reading a few threads,it seems that wfp goes wrong sometimes.Is there anyone there that has bought a set up and later regretted it?or anyone that no longer uses it?

There are a few that have gone back to trad over the last 3 years- dont know if they are still alive though as they no longer seem to post.

the thing with WFP is that it is a bit more complicated to keep on top of, as opposed to just using ladders and a bucket.
theres alot more things to go wrong with WFP, and not everyone takes to it kindly (customers).

so getting set up initially is sometimes a chore/hardship. i know when i set up with it a few yrs back i did at first think "what have i let myself in for!!!"

but i would never go back now, its definatly the best move ive made ;D

i do however know of one person who went back to ladders, but by his own admission it wasnt because he didnt think WFP doesnt work, but simply he couldnt be bothered with the extra "hassle" that does go along with owning one of these  ???

If anyone as gone back to useing ladders and sold their wfp. How long did they try wfp for?

For the first two months I hated wfp, I felt I had wasted a small fortune on it. But between months 3 and 4 I started to like it a bit more each week.

By the time 6 months had come along I loved it and now I am so so happy I invested in it. I prefer it to trad, I still do odd customers trad but they are starting to feel a pain in the bum.

I thought about a trolley system cos I am mainly domestic but I am so pleased I went van mount, I did lots of research and got everthing right.

i started using wfp, using the backpack, but i have gone back to trad on usual small houses.
I tried it for about 2 weeks, some areas i cleaned for a few months, but for me trad is faster. Mind you, for georgian i only use wfp! and the same goes with most leaded houses. Plus, i always use it for my commercial contracts.
Most people wouldnt go back to trad, but it is better choice for me really
