Window vacuum

Has anyone got or tried the Karcher window vac?
We get the most awful condensation and have heard that the window vac is good for removing the moisture.
On Amazon they are £20 cheaper than the RRP.

*waves hand in the air

I have one Nippy..........it's brillllllllllllllllliant!!! No smears, very very quick etc. etc. etc.

The only thing to watch is that you don't put too much cleaner (I use washing up liquid) in your bucket of water, cos the suds fill up the chamber rather rapidly!

Can you let me know how you get on with this please Jen, as I'm looking for something for the conservatory which seems to be misting up every morning, and I've never had to deal with this kind of thing before Dave won't let me buy one coz he calls them "an expensive load of c*ap"!

I need something coz most of the other house windows, patio doors have condensation all along the bottom, and for the moment, I'm using kitchen roll which is hard work!

Thats what I paid from Amazon. 3-5 days delivery postage and packing free
I saw an advert from B&Q for the same price. If you take into account my petrol to our nearest B&Q I'm the winner here

H I will let you know. I'm not buying it to clean the windows as such but to deal with the condensation.

De-humidifiers are brilliant.

Our house is old and gets a lot of condensation, usually sticking on the de-humidifier within 30-40mins most of it has gone. Wasn't expensive, and doesn't take up much room.

I've got a dehumidifier and although there is always loads of water to be emptied it never really clears the condensation
