Soft are made for our climate,.. hard are for hotter countries. It's still personal preference really though.

I starting using ettore rubber after buying some yesterday. Was so much better than unger. Just glides. But I think that is stated as being soft/medium.

I asked this question 3 years  ago when I started window cleaning and was told to use soft for winter and hard for summer

I've been squeegieing a while but thought it was high time i renewed my rubbers. Bought soft ones and found i have been using hard up till now. I only trad insides normally but any demonstrations are welcome.  ;D
Got a set of ladders now so i'm progressing backwards.  :-\

Unger Soft also like Ettore Master, however too expensive.  

Can't get on with Pulex Rubbers at all
