So noticed that the pole they were using on the high window has an angle adapter on it.
When first put on pole it was straight later you will notice the angle adapter has been adjusted.
Regarding using it on lower glass wouldn’t be easier to have it on a pole adjusting the angle adapter.
Same goes for scrubbing / squeegeeing.
Need to have the pole extended more also with an angle adapter on it.
So be able to adjust squeegee scrubber to the correct angle.
This way you are able to do clean the whole piece of glass with the pole in one go.
Not stop half way take squeegee off pole and do the rest by hand.

Also having the pole adjusted to the correct length you will not be bending or over reaching.

Hard to tell how good that Wagtail Wave is at cleaning glass as to be honest the way it's being demoed in the video looks as if it's not cleaning the glass effectively at all!
If there was any bug/fly/bird poo or moderate soiling I don't think he has done enough to properly remove it?

Isn’t the idea to have a tool that you can adjust and/or adapt to your way of using it technique??
Not the latter.
Believe many manufactures are missing the point having cleaning tools that clean.
YOU have to adjust the way it is used.
There aren’t many that you can adjust to the way or technique YOU would use them??
Examples: Fixed angles on poles, poorly designed squeegee / scrubber handles.

Of cause you could just put your spray bar on this works the same .
Take note of the movement same as the wagtail movement.

It makes you wonder what kind of R&D these guys undertake. What an utterly pointless contraption! Can anyone come up with any benefit to this product over a brush?

Willy wagtail should stick to trad flippers!
