So following on from Dazmonds post

How much do you think you've wasted on duff purchases ? 

anything window cleaning related , whether it be a telescopic pole, some gizmo meant to save you water or that bargain water heater on ebay that turned out to use the wrong type of gas 

I'll start things rolling with the two most expensive purchases I made that spring to mind ( probably more to add as I remember them ), a 40 ft emporium modular pole and a merlin ro, total £775

[bobplum]

very little , i always stayed with gardiners for poles and brushes, always been happy
i use the aqua tap now rather than the aqua adapter, but the AD  was good

i feel everything i have had was good but was then superseded by better things

[koopmaster]

agreed, very little.  probably about £50 or less on crap I dont use.

One example is the old style scrimms.  I never liked them.  I now have the blue microfiber scrims and since I am WFP they will last me years and years.

I would have said my Pure Freedom reel, but since taking 20m of hose off it is problem free.

Xtel pole though was my first pole. Still using a Merlin "lent" to me by Cliff Perkins so that is my best "buy".

[Klean07]

A Brodex alloy pole, 30 metres of reinforced pole hose, various o rings which I still can't fathom out how to use them! I'll think of more later!

[dazmond]

years ago i wasted money on

25 ft brodex hydra pole

streamline glass fibre pole

both these poles IMO are rubbish for wfp.

sections 4 and 5 for the unger teleplus trad pole(NEVER BEEN USED!)

so about £350.not bad really.you live and learn!

oh yes!and £63 on THE WRONG HEATER!!

[Soupy]

Dunno, but it's lots.

I'd probably cry if I were to add up all the useless junk I've bought over the years.

Wouldn't have the greatest system ever built without a bit of trial and error though.

Edit: unless of course you count the Zero^TM which can clean a window just by looking at it.
