I was looking into getting a Window Cleaner to make cleaning windows a bit easier and quicker, and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Karcher WV 6 Plus?

The reviews online seem to be pretty good, but wanted some first hand insight :)

Slow and require technique for good results.

Good for sucking condensation off windows

Oh, doesn't sound too promising?

I run a cleaning company- we tried this once (they gave it to us) and wit was more trouble than worth. Get a blade, good squeegee and an hour of practice. Karcher products are overengineered and amazing in a specific role, and I think this took it s little far past practical.

What would be your recommended method of cleaning the outside of windows on 2nd floors?

Depending on how often you do them. I would recommend the pure water system - uses resin that strip steel hard minerals from water and leaves it streak free. I think their residential system is ~600, but its also good for washing the house and means you don't need to climb- you may be covered by accident if you fall but the 600 cost to avoid a lifetime of pain is worth it.
