Hope they are going to be better than the cleaning pad located on the back of the plastic goose neck.

Whilst I'm not very impressed with their products so far, you have to give them some credit for trying. The scraper on the brush doesn't work according to reports on here but I like the idea.
The scrubbing pad too seems a good idea but overpriced. The angle adapter sections are good for occasional use and about the right price for what they are. The rubber butt rings they sell are excellent provided they fit your pole. The brushes? I have no idea but as long as Gardiners are producing theirs I'll probably never buy one.

Good for tecbuk I say - forward thinking suppliers seem a rare thing in our market.

I'm after a new trolley so would consider one of theirs if they price them right.I still think £500 for a pure freedom one is too strong for what they are.Teckbuk price around £200 for the bare bones trolley but don't know how much for a fully working one.

Yeah I would actually consider something like that.I've got one of those 35l trolleys at the moment and it's such a pain keep filling it up.The Techbuk site says that they configure trolleys to your needs so I might e-mail them out of interest.If they can come in with something around the £300 mark I will probably have one.Can't see it though.If they go head to head with pure freedom at £500 they will come unstuck I think.

Seriously....

i have the extensions and they are well made - as said not for use all day/day in day out

i am waiting for them to process an order for a brush/butt end and some other items - only been waiting 4 days now!
on direct way to purchase off the site and they don't seem to have been working since last wednesday.

i want to give the ariel brush a try but i cant wait forever......

let us know what you think darren once you have got it, it took a few days for me to get used to it, but i really like it.

It would be nice to have another impartial review of it as there are some quite clearly biased reviews on here.

I did get some angle adaptor extensions from them a couple of weeks back and they have made a couple of jobs a lot easier.  Very prompt delivery too.  No, I'm not involved with them.  Just a customer who wanted to add to his kit bag.

I have the aerial brush and don't rate it. It's heavier and narrower than my supalites. Will be sticking with Gardiners in future.

the weights a pretty close ( although the ariel is smaller ) but i do stacks of georgian windows where the sl is slightly too wide but the main problem with the SL's is i think the stock is too soft - the corners wear away rapidly and i am already losing bristle bunches ! - this is after 8 months so not a big concern, i also have an idea to fit a quick release scrubbing pad to the head but the sl stock is to wimpy for this,
and lastly i like to try new/different items in the quest for the best possible set up that works for me.
