tried loads of brushes...the superlight is the best by far ... it splays so softly on the glass that you only have to go near the corners and it gets them without you having to...if that makes sense  ;)

Also, because of the narrow stock, you can fly down french/patio doors and the brush goes under the door handles easily...

One more point too, its narrower...so those windows with railings are so easy now...

i have sped up by 15% easily.

as i always say dual trim unflocked  great scrubbing and cleaning power far better than the flocked the bristles are far to soft to deal with any bird muck i only use my black flocked version for really old leaded windows and wooden windows in really bad condition both great brushes worth every penny i have 3 in total

Superlite is a modular pole.  Very light but very fiddly for domestics.  Better suited for longer runs of windows at similar height.  IMO telescopic is much better for such work.  So SLX is better than superlite for such work IMO but not quite as light.

Dual trim unflocked is what I use. Just glides across the glass, splays nicely, and the shorter trim allows for better scrubbing.

I use duel trim flocked and is the best brush I have, I have the unflocked version but did not like it as not as good for scrubbing

Dual trim mono for me.

The flocked feels nicer to use but I have been caught out with spotting with it - it will hold the dirt and being black you won't see any.

Dual trim flocked for me - just ordered 3 co I'm fed up with switching my one brush between 3 poles!

I've never tried the dual trim mono, but I think the bristles look a bit too spaced out for me.
