The wagtail its self is excellent for internal high level glass and really easy to use from day one. I found the flipper (mop) bit didn't hold much water and when you flip it it splashes the glass you have just done! Wagtail do a mop which works in the same way, I prefer this. Get one you'll love it. So better to get them seperatly? I thought the flipper maybe better for high level, ie just one pole.Did you order direct from Oz?I thought that too but just couldn't get on with the flipper. The flipper is a small piece of fleece which covers the squeegee blade. I didn't find it very good at holding water or scrubbing to be honest. The time saving is minimal as a proper mop is quick because of the coverage and bigger surface in contact with the glass. I got mine from OZ. Postage is very quickJust seen the demo on youtube, i can see what you mean, doesnt look that great. I'll order the standard squeegee and mop. Can you use just the one handle and use a standard channel, save buying different sizes?The channel that comes with it is aluminum but it will take any rubber. Its not a standard channel Im afraid

We used to use them for inside pole cleaning, takes a little practice but not difficult to master.I am a big fan of the combi, particularly for inside maintenance work using pure water with no chemical.But one warning:- Loads love them but some dislike them - I dont know why because I have never got a real answer - just I dont like them.

Its not a standard channel Im afraidHi Kevin, thanks for the replies. So its a unique channel, but i could buy just the one handle and have 3 different channels for it? The website doesnt give alot away.
As you said Glyn, it can take half a day to really master one. The ones that said "I don't like them" just never persevered. I love the combi, is it true they stopped making them?
used the two that i bought from omnipole for first time today doing internal pole work. they are brilliant
