Apparently it comes in hard and soft bristles, also has a flow control of some sort built into the pole. I will be going for a look at it anyway, Nosey as hell me.

Jonny, do you reckon it'll be any good for conservatory roofs? I'm gonna pop through to Lidls later and see if they have any left.

id think it would be just right for conservatory roofs , its such a cheap price it must be the very cheapest waterfed pole system on the market .2 brushes and a tap included!

 best to buy now as you know how LIDLs are, next week theyll be gone till forever !

Well, that's one of the more bizzare photos I've seen recently.

The guy is roughly as tall as the pole is long - i.e. 1.32m or 4'4" tall.  His feet are freakishly small.

Looks like a bad photoshop day to me!

It's a wide angle lens! It makes the foreground seem a lot bigger and closer that's why, and he's leaning towards it.

Oh and by the way, how is that pole supposed to connect to a wfp hose?

Just bought one today from Aldi, Quid more but what the hell. I will do a full conversion. Block all the existing jets, drill out new ones in the middle of the brush, possibly 8 of them, rig up a step down connector to fit the wfp hose and go see how it performs. You never know till you try, may be loads better than a 2 jet brush.

I bought one of these a couple of years ago and regularly use it for con roofs, it extends to about 20 ft. They also sell them in two sizes in The Range for £12.99  if you have one locally it's worth buying.
