Cleaning Windows

Post by Mark »

My job.

Just saw an ad for Karcher Window Vac.

Does it work?

Never tried, I use a squeegee & finish off with a chammy leather!

Call me old fashioned or what?

I find mine very useful and easy to use, although it does leave a few smear marks around the edge of the window which need to be wiped off (if you're fussy like me!).

I've had mine for a couple of years. I find it easy to use and whizz around the 6 sets of patio windows I have in a flash (well maybe not that quick). Would recommend. X :D

Really brilliant for mirrors, tiles and stainless steel - great result. Does well on windows too.

Agree will previous post that you need to finish off around edges with an ecloth or similar.

Great for condensation on windows in the cold weather too
If you never ask the question, the answer will always be....no

The was a thread about the Karcher window vac on CL a year or so ago, and again, those who had one, including me, thought it was one of the best gadgets to come out in the last few years. There was agreement, too, that the part for applying the liquid was a waste of time.

I found it was cheaper to buy on Amazon, than through local shops.

We've had one for years and it does a really good job and is easy to use. Highly recommended.

I got one as a present few years ago and was a little bit skeptical at start, but wow! it really is an efficient machine and I have many windows in my home. No streaks, just fill tank and there you go.

Are you related to Cactuslil?

I recall many, many years ago that I purchased a food mixer for my wife for her birthday!! I have never made that mistake again. Since then it has been jewellery, perfumes, expensive items of clothing or designer handbags. It was too close a call for me.

As for the Karcher ..... good product, I would recommend it for cleaning windows but not on birthdays or Christmas.

Install Apple's operation system - you will never need to clean Windows again!
