 the 18 is heavy on the arm , and it took me a good fortnite for the arm aching to go, but its quicker than the 14  so worth getting Bob . to change hands when im up the ladder i bring the wag behind me (this means for a split second both arms are behind your back)  but  the 18 is too big to swop at the front,when you are face to the glass,if that makes sense

I had that 36" on test in the 90's, was using it on shop fronts for a while, but just couldn't get comfortable with it really. Otherwise, 14" all the way. Just ordered the 14" Wagtail from window cleaning warehouse, looking forward to trying it out. Read alot of your posts on here about it. Can't get it here in Guurmany.
