Just ordered my new extreme white brush and 10" gooseneck

Well excited to use it, but how do you get on if the window is close to the soffit over connys? Is it a bit snug???

As the angle is fixed, how do you get on in tight alleyways? Do you change heads?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

I've been using one of the Gardiner carbon fibre goosenecks for a while now. No problems on any window jobs so far.  Angle seems to be about right for most jobs.

On one conservatory roof with a very shallow angle and the ground 'falling away' I had difficulty reaching the back so a slightly longer gooseneck would have helped there.

Otherwise - a  brilliant item of kit.

I found those goosenecks not very practical for most domestic windows as the angle isn't very helpful for brushing off sills.  It is probably better with one of their sill brushes.  I bought an ali adaptor from them that you can clamp onto the pole.  A plastic angle adaptor screws onto the ali adaptor.  The goosenecks are fine for many types of work though.  I've been using it on a large commercial job lately (no sills) that probably could not have been done with any other pole on the market (except SL2 but it wasn't the sort of job you could practically do with a modular).
So, the gooseneck probably needs the sill brush on the end to cope with standard domestic jobs.

I have two, they get used not often, purely because I'm awaiting the new gardeners extreme sill brush,
I don't like cleaning upper windows without brushing sills.
Also will be ordering the 90 degree gooseneck, be brilliant for windows in tight alleyways where you need the reach.

I find the angle good, but as others have said you will have more difficulty getting to a standard ledge rather than the top of a window above a conservatory. All in all though I've found it very workable and so so light.

Best piece of kit you will ever buy, could never go back to plastic angle adapters

Thanks lads for your replies.

Quick question... How do you connect it to existing pole hose. The brush has a speedfit fitting on it.

Does the hose slide in/clamp in

The Super-Lite Carbon Gooseneck assembly has a short length of hose which sticks out below the gooseneck connecting shaft. This has a John  Guest 8mm push-fit connection on it which most 8mm pole hose will push into. If the hose you are using on the pole does not push-fit on to it then you can get a 8mm shaft to hose barb fitting (as shown below) to fit to the end of your pole hose. This will ensure a secure connection.

Thanks Alex

Just managed to get hold of Vicky in the office and she was very helpful.

Thanks again-looking forward to getting going with it Monday
