I found that the "pull hooks" were too fragile for me.  Broke quite quickly.  If you do get one, I suggest getting the 3.8 mtr version rather than the 3.3. I wouldn't work off one but they are OK for access if they don't break.

As per previous reply.
OK for casual use, access etc.

I use wfp for all exterior window cleaning. I have a telescopic ladder  that I use about 4 times a month for access to flat roofs and for the occasional conservatory roof clean.

I have the 3.8m version. Its fine for occasional use and  much quicker than getting ladders of the roof rack. There are good bits of kit in my opinion.
