Has anybody got one of those Karcher window cleaning machines?

If so,  is it easy to use  (even for a half wit)?   :smiley:
And does it do a good job?

I don't think that'll work as a replacement for you car windscreen washing issue, but I like your thinking😬😬

I have one and they work well enough. There are cheap alternatives in Lidl quite often and they probably work OK too. Can't understand this obsession with cleaning windows though.

I've got one too.  They're ok, particularly good for cleaning doggie nose marks on inside of windows.  Bit of a gimmick I suppose, I don't use mine very often, but then I don't clean my windows very often.. :cool:

It certainly aint an obsession.  They haven't been done for about 18 months. 
I used to have a window cleaner come,  but he kept letting me down and not turning up so I told him not to bother any more.    I found another one,  then bugger me if he didn't do the same! 

Why don't  men ever do what they say they're going to do!  :rolleyes:

Very odd.  Who do your neighbours use?

Our cleaners use a clean water system to brush the dirt off with pumped distilled water through elongated broom things.  Seems to work pretty well.  Since the water is distilled, it doesn't leave streaks.

I have never seen   either neighbour ever clean their windows.    
One is just bone idle, and the other is an old chap of 80 who is not in good health.

The chap who lived opposite used to ahve the same bloke as me,  and he found him unreliable too.
I don't know anybody else, and that is why I wanted the Karcher to do it myself.

Men are not too good at timing and coming..  :grin:

I clean my own windows.. but not very often..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

It seems poor old Mups' window cleaner is leaving her disappointed by not coming at all  :rolleyes:
