hi Peter, like the idea, may well be interested in one.
This is'nt a knock at you, but whenever I see vids or pics of wfp's in use its always on easy windows of semi's lol  ;)
The houses I cleaned today have georgian box bay windows, with shrubs in the garden so I'm not up close to them and have to angle the brush sideways from the pavement to get at them! how would your pole cope with work like that? would it suit that kind of work?
thanks
Simon

Hi Simon,,

It is probably because the highest percentage of windows are how you described.  If I have the time I will see if I can get some footage of some awkward stuff.
 
Now a more honest answer...
I think most people doing the video's myself included want to show the product in the easiest scenario possible, they don't want to show any sort of struggle like the struggle you may have had today.  Although you managed probably quite easily today, it would not look as good on a video had you been cleaning a simple semi.

People buying systems may ask if a particular pole is easy to use at a particular height, and I usually tell them it is but not as easy as it is at a lower height.

In answer to your other question I shouldn't think the windows you described that you done today should be a problem.

thanks for the reply Peter,
I understand what you mean about suppliers videos obviously, its just my round in brighton is anything but the normal 3 bed semis, I currently have a homemade 5 meter harrison pole and a 39 ft excel. Your 24 footer if versatile enough to manage the awkward windows of my round would be well worth my consideration, my concern was if using it at a 30 to 45 degree angle sideways on would it swivel and twist about? I'll watch this space and the window tools forum for feedback. Cheers and keep up the good work ;)
whats the pole made from anyhow?

Its made of glassfibre, a bit different from the glassfibre doing the rounds just now.

As long as the brush was kept against the glass then it should stay flat on the glass.
