Title: wcw backpack?
Post by: andyjm1 on April 13, 2010, 07:00:22 pm
Thinking of getting a backpack for some of my awkward jobs. Seen the window cleaning warehouse one at £99.70 + vat and was wondering if anyone on here has one and if so are they any good?

Just bought the williamson pumps bp (in blue). Excellent first impressions as only used it for the first time today. VERY powerful pump tho, so it gets thru water pretty quick. Brilliant handle and controls.

Backpacks are an excellent way to get into wfp.I got a wcw one about this time last year and it's done me proud.The only slighly annoying thing is you have to fill them up pretty regularly.

I know Mike and I have found the manufacturer  ;)

Thanks for sending the pic Matt, i could'nt quite work out if you can carry this backpack as opposed to having it on your back.
Regards

Post by: Sapphire Window Cleaning on April 14, 2010, 10:20:51 pm
Paul the actual backpack has a handle on the fill cap.
The picture I sent you was a similar model, just the fill cap is different mate.
Did you get the spec Paul?

   Not that it matters but are they Chinese made?
Title: Re: wcw backpack?
Post by: Sapphire Window Cleaning on April 14, 2010, 10:30:30 pm
Yes they are.

I believe that most of the backpacks on sale in the UK are manufactured in China.

I am still looking for more suppliers, ringing around etc.
This is suppose to be my other half's business and I concentrated on the window cleaning services side, but I am doing all the ruddy work as well as going out window cleaning.
Some women have got it made haven't they  :-\

 ;D ;D
