Swivels ARE awesome for WFP!! I've been using them for years & couldn't work without one now below 30ft. For domestic work especially they are IMO the best innovation since wfp itself!!
You DO have to be patient to begin with, as like with most new things, you have to adapt & learn how to use it to it's full potential. There are so many benefits to them that any negatives are outweighed 100-1.
A Gardiner resi-neck swivel combined with an Xtreme brush is an awesome combination.
They work better with a 45 degree angle from the brush as oppose to 90 degree- which unfortunately I do not get on with. On that note, I personally think that 45 degree works better even without a swivel, the pressure just seems better spread & the various forces seem to favour 45 degrees better.
Anyhow, if you've not tried one, or have but didn't give it chance, you don't know what you're missing!!
