The guy in the second video aint very good at cleaning ;D

If he said aqua adapter one more time in that first video, I think I would have topped myself..    ;D

Idea is great, but video needs to be clearer, shorter and more punchy..

Good product though, I think it could go far..

Clever idea. Where can you buy an aqua-dapter from as I would be interested in doing away with tap on pole

ewan, am not saying the price is bad, i thought it would be around the £40 mark,  i would still consider buying it though, my only concern is, the tubing he is using is that blue semi rigid the stuff used for ro, or am i mistaken,

the idea is a very good one, but i think they should try and get it working from the brush head, a taping mechanisim, on/off   dont know about you ewan, i must get my hose traped loads of times in a day, and this would switch the flow on, maybe not, but i think it would, the automatic hose cleaner is complete, and still my sl-x has no dirt or grit, so i know it works great, the problem i had was fitting every pole base, took me a while to work it out, so hoping to find a company to make them cheap enough,

sorry, but 60 QUID IS TOO MUCH. 8)

anyone who knows the fledgling wfp market will tell you that any new product that appears has to be as cheap as chips for it to take off...its all down to volume sales.....my suggestion?...thanks for asking.......erm i would say market it for 25 quid each for the 1st 100 sales ;)

Product seems ok but still a bit awkward.

But that cleaning video is hideous. NO WONDER people complain about wfp getting bad results, it makes me cringe!!!  :o  :-[  :-X

That was some terrible window cleaning;  :o

   but i suppose the vid is more about the aqua adapter than technique::

It does make you think twice about buying it though, esp at £60..

Thanks Guys,
This is steven from aqua-dapter, true i did mention aqua-dapter a few times, I am the designer not an actor. which i am glad,I did my own head in watching my video,but you no what it feels very awkward talking to a camera!   I would like to answer a few comments:   is the hose RO hose?  NO Thats not the hose that will be supplied with it.  the hose was not ready at that time. there will be 2 colours of hose yellow & transparent black,  custom manufactured to the right spec.   The hose is very strong & expensive to produce, Unlike standard hose which is made of P.V.C.  my hose stays very consistent in hot & cold weather.   P.V.C   goe's hard in winter But soft in summer, its important to have the right hose because in the summer heat affects P.V.C hose which makes to soft and swells under pressure & is to stretchy to use on  "that taboo word Aqua-Dapter"    Next comment:  just pinch the hose,Have'nt quite mastered how to extend and collapse the pole while pinching the hose, Its just a new tap that makes life easier saves- water, time, money   It will pay for its self over time.      soon please check my new website with 3D imagery, so you can get a feel of it.

True the guy in the second video did'nt clean the windows very well, I suppose he was'nt demonstrating how to clean windows,the demonstration was to show briefly how it worked,if he cleaned them longer you would think get to the point! ;D  Thanks Steven  Aqua-dapter Limited

Great idea but if you use several poles then you will need one for each pole where as one tap at the end of your main hose on reel does all poles  ;)
