For guidance, Gardiners have a brush guide on their website

Cheers mate I will look through that aswell just wanted to also hear what window cleaners who work with the brushes everyday also think about them

Daz why didn’t you do for the wide xtreme? Much lighter and you won’t see any more scrubbing power out of the ultimate. (Not that’s noticeable)

Then again if your only using it for one job...

I dont think the natural bristle holds up too well with hot water

i didnt see the point of going for the wide extreme as this brush will be used on offices,care homes,childrens nurseries and large stand alone domestic jobs with large windows...the whole point was to get more  brush coverage,not less.... :)

Get yourself to the show in September, look out for some of the members on here perhaps. Have a look at all the brushes on show, so you can physically see them etc, then make a choice if need be. Even pop in and listen to Lee  ;D.

I’d say go for a stiff only if you have a hot water system. But maybe that’s only me  :)

I wouldn't order a stiff brush if you use cold water...a medium soft brush would be better for you mate.....

The quick loc is great....I use it on all my brushes.....👍

Just for comparisons sake with people saying that the Extreme doesn't last as long I've got two brushes below, Ultimate med soft and an extreme softish! Wasn't what I ordered but anyway it's older but been in use pretty much all this year with the other been used for around six months. You can see the extreme center bristles are absolutely fine and it's only the corners going miss shaped.

Ok I think I’ll go for the ultimate 26cm mixed soft then and I’ll order the quick loq with it, I think I’m gonna order the super scraper attachment and scrubbing pad, also another ez snap female hose connector for spare as my one has bit of rust
