Who's using them? What do you think of it - particularly compared to the normal mixed dual trim Extreme?

For me, not enough scrubbing power, but they are very light indeed. Definitely worth a try.

the last three months i have bought one or two brushes from Asda, soft one and a medium bristle and converted to use on the pole, a 15 min job and they have been very good.
They dont have the durability of the standard brush but i find the extremes dont last that well either so thats why i spent £10 on two brushes and they have been ok

It's good but I found it too stiff  ???

I think they are too light now.

I find the flocked version really good , I do think the one you have mentioned the bristles may be a bit stiff .

I have leaded windows and sash windows and the flocked version is really all round brush . Mike

Just used the flocked hybrid for 2weeks, the one with blue centre and black flocked outer bristles

Like it a lot.

It's beautiful on leaded and also nice on Georgian, prefer using with the bumper. The corners are far too sharp in my opinion, the bumper allows you to hammer it without fear of gouging any wooden frames.....

If in doubt.....Leave it out !!
