suppliers should get their act together

guys I use the autobrush to switch the water on and off
I cant believe that suppliers can charge a fortune for poles, and no one has come up with an idea of a permanent switch built into the poles I have a deck brush from b and q about £20 quid and part of the pole has a built in twist and turn on off switch built into the pole, I tell you guys check them out , the pole has 2 jets for washing desks and connects onto a hose.
so manufacturers when you harp on about your super duper state of the art system, come back down to earth and supply the simple things in life like switching the water on and off

I have got yhe very brush for my car and a simple twist and it is off.
The technology in the pole and brush for £20 is unbelievable, You get a 2 piece extending alluminium pole with a twist action on and off and a huge great dense brush complete with hose attatchment on the end of the pole.

these poles are good for ground floor windows etc. and as the pole itself holds the water (not a pipe running up the middle) you are able to have an on/off valve.
but if you imagine having a "normal" carbon or glass fibre pole at say 50ft working on the same principle, it would weigh ALOT with the weight of all that water inside each section!
many people fit a remote control on/off switch which imo seems a good idea.

you will only need that same on off action on one section of pole, the rest could run into a hose.

I have a 8' extendable pole with very soft brush, I bought for conservatorie roof's, it has a built in on/off switch, £20 from the market,
great value, and I have been useing it for the past three years,
were do these manufactures get there prices from? hundreds of pounds for an extendable pole, without brush and without an on/off switch. its about time these manufacturers got there act together, and stop ripping of window cleaners.
Sorry guy's I have just measured it and it is a10' pole

Hi Jinky
I think when you press reply, to type up your message, there is a button bottom row, second from left, that says insert image, try that. (never used it myself so not a hundred % sure.
