I've been using a Unger 12" squeegee for several months now and was wondering if there is a better one to use or a replacement rubber that's better than the one that comes with it?

get the top of the range ettore far better

I have an unger s 14inch handle and channel. I have had it for about 15 yrs and it still works. I have from time to time changed the rubber bit, I used to change it weekly, flipping it over on a wednesday afternoon. I now use wfp so one rubber can last for several months. I have always used cheap pulex rubbers and never had a problem with them or unger. Don't knock unger they make good quality tools that last.

i use the unger ergotech squeegees(14-18in)and ive also got a swivelock.very good professional trad equipment IMO.

I must admit though they dont get used much these days!maybe a few times a day on ground floor windows although ill probably use em more in winter due to water issues in the cold.

doctor windows ive used trad poles for years and used them for all 1st floor windows when it was snowing earlier in the year!

it kept me ticking over!ive had years of practice!most window cleaners would make a mess of them if they ve had no experience of them before!

I have a 6inch 10 inch, 12 inch and 14 inch and trad poles, they are all unger and I use pulex soft rubber

but on the whole I use a 14 inch ergo tech squeegie for most work

thanks for the input guys

I'm not that clued up on trad gear so just wanted to make sure I was using a decent squeegee.

Ettore.

Please don't use the U-word. There's supposed to be no bad language.

I wondered when Squeaky would mention his Ettore fetish! 

I use Unger. Never had a problem. Broken some Ettore stuff though!

It's delicate engineering. Can't just go at it like a yob!

It just came apart in my hand - honest!
