Yes

I have one of the earlier ones (bit smaller battery)
Very useful, not just for windows....taking water off cars, cleaning shower etc
Most useful drying out the fabric of my cabriolet XK....it sucks the dirty water off.
 BREXIT - done properly.

If your anything like me, you'll use it whilst it's a new gadget, then let it gather dust for ever more. Another one of the advertising gurus successes making us buy something we don't need Laughing

United Kingdom 2013 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Commercial XS Auto Baltic BlueDiscovery 4

What can I say - I have two Whistle

One in the house, one in the workshop.

I can wash the Conservatory (5.5 metres by 2 metres) which is a lot of glass and dry the windows off in under 10 minutes. Not a mark, not a streak in sight.

Great for doing big mirrors in the house. Same result. Flawless.

Also brilliant for shower cubicles and keeping the glass dry after a shower and preventing scale marks.

Highly recommended Thumbs Up

I have one and use it every day in the winter to get condensation from our velux windows after showering and every other week to clean our glass doors to remove the dog nose prints - I find it quick and easy - great gadget.

My mum bought one, I was sceptical, tried it, buying one

Saw one advertised on one of the crappy shopping channels with an extension pole that the vac attaches to - not sure how effective / unwieldy that would be?
