I don`t know why your wasting your time mate i got one and havn`t used it,all it made me do was realise that i didn`t really need it.The water runs out far to quickly to clean anything of any decent size,if you can get your hose to the window who needs a backpack,i can hear all the terrace house backpackers gunning for me now,for the odd few window`s fair enough but people who say they work with it all day must be mad.

 ::)  :P  ::)  :(  ::)  :P Guilty.......I really am starting to think that there are some seriously different working environments that we all seem to overlook on this forum sometimes. Whether it be City work..........Coontryside work,office work etc etc. In the citys where ya lucky enough to find a parkin space in some roads, let alone being able to park your van facing exactly the direction you want. People walkin past every 5 seconds, tyres everywhere to get ya hose snagged on bla bla and more bla. Sure the van mount has it's place where u can just pull up and do a £30-£40 detached pad. But for work like mine where there are obstacles left,right and center, ya can't beat the baccy and a 25l to see us on our way. Just my humble opinion  ;)

Well I just ordered one yesterday from america, should be here within 2 weeks cost at present £116 delivered, might get clobbered for import tax but hopefully it'll slip through ;D
I know what's been said about buying from abroad but with say cleantecs price at about the £212 delivered....I'll risk it.

Mine is also to suppliment the van, for those hard to get to windows.

i agree totally,

i started wfp with a backpack,... compared to van mount its hard work.... people say oh its good for hard to get to houses.... why...oh why is it?

if you cant get a hose to it .. well i am sorry but i wont be humping a blooming backpack to it either...

i keep mine thinking i will use it but i dont even look at it in the van.... it reminds me of bad times.

I want it for a job in 2 weeks time so don't want it tomorrow, and certainly dont want the pleasure of paying an extra £100 for next day delivery :o

clever and tight are to different things m8, somethings you have to pay more for as the higher price saves money, being plain tight only gets you a few good things and the crap everyone else has, I would say your clever not tight  ;)
