    Really like the look of this but it's a bit pricey. 82 euro on Argos site. Anyone seen any better offers ?

    £45.99 on amazon at the moment. Very tempted myself at that price.

    As a recent convert to steam cleaning (bought Vax S2 recently), how was the Karcher window cleaner? Any good?

    Wellit came Friday and I spent all day Sunday with it :D
    It's excellent ! Worth the money. Does not streak when ya get the hang of it which does not take long. Battery life could be better but I have a lot of windows I suppose :)

    Crikey! Super fast reply km79. Loving the Vax for the floors, have all hardwood floors / tiles in my house, cleaning floors was a total pain but now, the Vax is literally like running a vacuum cleaner over the floors, easy peasy lemon squeezy!

    i was in argos today
    seen the karcher one for 75€ and the vax one was the same price
    i bought the vax steamcleaner and window cleaner in a package for 99€

    the steamcleaner is pretty good but the glass vacuum cleaner is absolutely useless
    it works but when u vacumm the water off it goes through the motor and runs down your arm .
    theres a water tank in it for spraying water on to the glass and i think the water is supposed to be held in the same tank
    very little instructions with the unit also.

    should have bought the karcher unit instead
