Best thing about it, I think, is the sturdiness of the product. It''s really basic, no frills, no gimmicks; just vacuums up the dirty Windex. Done.
As I said, I''m not squeamish about getting my hands wet or dirty; you could wear gloves, I suppose, if you don''t want to get Windex on them. Beats using newspaper or paper towels by a mile!

This is a tool that will help you get shiny windows faster. I have so far only used industrial strength windex and I like the results. I have read reviews on using regular dish washer detergent or vinegar, too. I have used it on windows and used it only once on a bathroom mirror; couldn''t get the corners right. I am happy with the window performance. Some facts: 1) it is important to use the tool from top to down mostly if you try to use it on a horizontal surface that has significant amount of water you get water coming out from sides the ventilation holes; a scary sight indeed, but it keeps running afterwards. Do not try to use it immediately if this happens to you too; let it stand for a while. The tank was not even one quarter full when this happened; it looks like the bursting leak is due to the design of tank connection. Keeping the tool upright on its base is a good habit when using this product, 2) There is a warning ''not to use it outdoors; I guess this is related to this issue; although the previous issue came up with regular indoor use I wouldn''t recommend using it outdoors after a rain or on wet surfaces based on potential problems You are of course going to use it outdoors. Outside of windows is why I purchased this product, and I surely used it outdoors on the truely problematic side of the windows. I rinsed the windows earlier with the garden hose. The dirty water tank is not large but it is sufficient to easily keep up with a couple large windows. 3) After a couple of uses the rubber will get dirty and leave traces on the surface; you can clean the attachment and try again or just go over the area using your conventional methods I use a paper towel to go over it a second round especially the corners always need a second round. It still is worth it as it reduces the amount of work you would have to put in to clean windows otherwise. It would be nice to have a secondary attachment so you can use one on clean home surfaces; I could not for instance use it on kitchen counters after cleaning the dirty windows. The attachment comes off for through cleaning; but I would expect the rubber to get distorted if you use harsh chemicals/tools to clean it. This must be the reason why outdoor use is not recommended. I use dish washing detergent and warm water to clean the head attachment. I wouldn''t depend on it for that variety of purposes as advertised; you should decide on the most important jobs and stick to it.I would recommend it to those who like streak free windows with less effort. I guess a review after a long term use would be more useful to judge the performanceBefore buying it, I was a little bit skeptical, BUT IT IS A PURE MARVEL ! No more dripping on the floor, no need anymore to put a cloth on the floor to protect it. What I like the most is when cleaning a big surface in two stages, there is no "partition line" showing at all. Works great on glass tables too. Very quick to clean
