Can't believe (D)UNGer is leading.

Load of cheap plasticy crap, at not-cheap prices.

Ettore is 20x the quality.

Unger rubber is the best by miles as are the unger microfibres. Ettore rubber is crap. :

Ok. :

Unger rubber cuts up in 5 minutes.
Absolutely useless.

I has an dUnger microfibre, but I've since found a much better one at half the price.

Cut up in 5 mins eh Roger :

How on earth did you manage to cut it up.....use it on a wall

i found the best microfibre to be the stuff they sell in asda for cars, they are really big cloths, and i get the mrs to sew a couple together on sewing machine so they dont come loose! They are great as they have a really thick pile rather than the microfibre that is almost shiny, i dont like it..

Gear wise i always stuck to unger and was happy, only problem i found with trad was i always mashed my squegee handles every day almost by dropping them and so then the blade would come loose!! aaargh i hated that!

I have only ever used unger, they have a far better range of equipement available than other brands, there poles are excellent, and although its cheap plastic. Its tough and very light and versatile. the 0 degree sqeegee's are excellent for pole work and I like the fact that you can change the angle on the sqeegees, it has came in really handy at times.

One thing i dont have and would like is the flexi brush it looks really cool.

The only thing I might choose over Ungers products might be ettore's bucket on a belt, and only because the clip has a seperate loop for easy removal. but for now I am sticking with Ungers.

Unger is the professionals choice

Unger the professionals choice?

It's Toys r us squeegees seriously, ettore is superbly balanced, and is 10x the squeegee Unger is. Ungers bucket is strong (the one with the casters), their poles are okay, I'm using them atm, simply because I never knew about the harris pole 2 years ago. Flipping costed me £80 that 20ft Unger pole. Their buckets on a belt aren't great either.

Ettore squeegee off is one of the best liquids I have used, and will always use it for insides.

Unger rubber is pants, Ettore or SYR.
