LOL!

I try to be nice to new start ups who are struggling to buy gear,.. but if I passed a guy using one of these I really would struggle not to laugh out loud at him.

Its not just the look of it though, a wheelie bin shape does not make a good trolley even if it is smaller. It'll be:

*hard to drag any real distance about because of the shape
*near impossible to get up & down steps with those little wheels
*top heavy because the pump box is on top
*not very stable on sloping ground
*prone to spillage when full

AND you'll look like a plonker!

He's only selling the sticker and as a warning sign it will do the job just fine though it would be better if it said window cleaning in progress and not cleaning.  As for the wheely bin thing he is trying to sell, shocking
