Its been said that how can you compare the two, they are 2 differant tools it would be like saying whats better a hammer or a screwdriver :

But if you want a comparison this is my thought
TRAD + Pros
can clean any window if you can get to it.
simplisity, Get to see the results straightaway. start up costs are cheaper than WFP and tools are easily replaced
TRAD+ cons
leaded windows are a pain to clean, Some windows need ladders that are on uneven ground> winter floors become too dangerous to walk on to clean windows. in direct sunlight windows are harder to clean because of soap drying to fast
on ladders all day is more dangerous
WFP + pros
Quicker +Safe can get to more windows that means more money windows stay cleaner longer and all windows are a joy to clean ( leaded and georgion )
WFP + cons
Cost in setting up and replacing parts , Not all windows take to WFP, Snagging with hose. Not seeing the results straight away. and building cleans can never be done with WFP
I prefer to use WFP then trad but a trad window does not need wfp but a wfp window cleaner needs trad
Just my thoughts
