Double sided magnetic window cleaning kit UK DOUBLE GLAZING magnetic window cleaner for 20-30mm UK glass [GEKKOH CLEARGRIP] (20-30mm ESSENTIALS MAX)

It is impossible to clean these windows without either paying a window cleaner or, hanging with waist over ledge to reach the bottom. My partner and I are getting too old to risk it so thought I would try this after carefully reading reviews on this and similar ones. Wow, those magnets really are powerful. If you use your brain and take your time to think about what you are doing you will be successful in achieving a great result. I was sceptical at first. Having unpacked it and placed all the bits in the holdall (with stings long enough you can sling it over your shoulder) I left it for a while then built up courage to test it on the back door which has patterned, bumpy glazing. Having watched the video(s) and read the instructions I made my first attempt and was surprised how well it worked. I purposely did not spray one side of the glass as I would not be able to do so on the bedroom windows (I used white vinegar with a drop of washing up liquid, topped up with water for spraying inner window). Once you realise the direction it has to go in, as the blade wipes of the suds, it was easy to get into a rhythm and I was very pleased with the result. The pad did not fall off once and was not as jerky as I thought it would be. Today I put it to the real test on the bedroom windows. Following the same pattern (all four corners then left to right, right to left, working my way down) I was extremely pleased with the result. Took less time than I thought so decided to tackle the bathroom window that has had seagull pooh on it for over a year! This time I was not so lucky in that the top window is only a little higher than the pad and it would not open enough to allow me to reach it so I just cleaned the inside. The larger, bottom window was more easy to reach (stood on a folding stool) and, after cleaning the window went back to the pooh stain and 'scrubbed' back and forth several times. I even left the pads in situ for about 5 mins whilst I had a break to ensure it was saturated and softened. That worked, a few more scrubs and it was gone! Result! Got a bit too confident when bringing the pads back up to within reach and the outer one fell away. Had the trusty string around my wrist so was able to easily retrieve it. Pro's • It is compact and easy to carry round from room to room (apart from the dish full of water). • The soft pads come off easily for cleaning (you can apply for a free spare set). • It works on patterned, bumpy, double glazed windows Con’s • It doesn’t quite wipe the suds from the corners • It could do with a loop or string on the inner pad as you need to avoid them connecting until you have placed one in position on the outside window. I was leaving one on the window sill and could not reach it holding the other in place so found it hard to get onto steps with a pad in each hand. • It can leave some streaks • Price has reduced by £10 since I bought mine. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the result and would highly recommend. Remember, you are cleaning both sides of the window in one go so much quicker than having to do each separately, and cheaper than paying a window cleaner!

Clear instructions, which when followed allowed for a good quality clean of our windows. Takes a bit of practice but quickly becomes easy to use. See attached before and after photos. Our windows were filthy and although they didn't come up perfectly, it's as close as they are going to get being that we are in a top floor flat, so outside accessibility is an issue. I could not use the magnetic cleaner on the fan light windows as the unit is a little too big. Really pleased to get a QR code for a set of free replacement pads. Overall a great gadget at a fair price for tricky to clean windows.

The idea is great and it works pretty well after a bit of practice. The only problem is that the plastic frame is cheap/weak and after the first use the plastic hole of one of the screws has already detached from the frame. See picture

You can see in the image left window is shiny after cleaning and other windows have years worth of city grime built up on the outside. Super happy with the difference. It’s streak free, I think individuals who had streaks didn’t move the cleaner in the right path/direction. You have to focus on the direction of the little squeegee/scraper so as not the leave streaks. (It soaps and squeegees in one go). The little squeegee on the outside cleaner on mine fell out mid clean. Luckily it fell where I could reach it but wouldn’t have been incredibly annoying if I had lost it. Magnets are good, it only fell off the window once, but that was because I moved it too quick while getting used to it, and the string caught it just fine. There’s no way to get in the corners, but it does do a good enough job even around the perimeter. Considering I live on the third floor, there’s no way to safely reach my windows from the outside, and the fact my windows slide upwards means I cannot reach the outside of my windows from the inside with windows open, so there’s no way to clean my windows without hiring someone. So despite not being perfect, this is well worth my time and money.

Works well on very high windows but I wouldn't use it on ground floor where I can reach easily the magnets are plenty powerful enough for my double glazing however when you get to the last corner to take you to off it leaves a great big smudge and I can't work out how not to do that and if you watch all the videos every one of them stops before they remove it from the window

I’m now too old and arthritic to climb ladders safely any more and professional window cleaners with ladders and buckets seem to be a dying breed in my area, the few that survive won’t last long on what pensioners can afford! How on earth are we supposed to get upstairs/outside windows clean? So, I bit the bullet and ordered one of these: I was sceptical - after reading several reports of similar products that fell off double glazed units, trapped fingers, smashed glass etc. In less than 24 hours my beautifully packaged magnetic gadget arrived from Amazon. Why do I mention the packing? Well, it really is good, attractive, strong, fit-for-purpose and a really exciting box to open! Absolutely everything I’d need to clean the windows (save for a drop of water and window cleaning liquid). Upon opening the box there were warnings about the incredibly strong magnets that were inside. Instructions for use (with pictures) are on the outside of the box, on a detailed and easy to follow leaflet inside, and if you’re the sort of person who learns best by watching … there are links to You-Tube films of ordinary folk using this gadget! Lots of warnings about danger of trapping fingers in between strong magnetic plates, but also lots of hints and advice about: going slowly, how much liquid to use, how not to worry at first use about not getting the corners of windows shiny clean, and hints to stop the outside cleaning plate dropping from an upstairs window onto an unsuspecting passer by, and yet more about going slowly…… Well, I’ve just cleaned some huge windows for the first time in months - they were really grubby and rain speckled with summer dust. I even had a cartoon like dusty outline of a pigeon which had flown into the window a few weeks ago…just like a Tom and Jerry cartoon with a perfectly clear outline - body, wings, head…..every time the sun shone on the glass I saw the poor pigeon’s perfect in-flight profile! (Don’t worry unduly, he escaped and flew off , but was undoubtedly a bit stunned!) My windows are now sparkling again. I went very, very slowly. I kept the cleaning pads very wet and they slide easily with a little window cleaning fluid - though one of the YouTube presenters said dish liquid was just fine too. The cleaning pads didn’t separate once or drop from the glass. I tied the connecting cord to a window handle - found that easier than my wrist. I can see one streak quite close to the bottom of the window (the first I cleaned) which I am sure is because there was such a build up of grubbiness. I know I can do the window again soon, and going slowly doesn’t really matter at all as one is actually doing both sides of the double glazing at the same time! By the way, my windows are only a few years old and I believe the gap between the glass has increased in these recent window units on the basis that they are better for insulation…the magnet strength in this Gekkoh product are certainly up for the job! I would happily promote this gadget to anyone. The company also emailed me after only one day to offer a free set of replacement pads by return….absolutely brilliant PR and service. And, although this isn’t the cheapest product on the list, it’ll pay for itself by replacing just two visits from a professional window cleanser! I’m completely and utterly wowed by this great gadget and the company … I’m never going to allow my windows - upstairs/downstairs, inside/outside to get grubby again. Thanks Gekkoh!

This gadget makes window cleaning quick and easy. It certainly cleans the glass well, without any fuss. The only thing is, it's imperative to take notice of the safety instructions. These magnets are really powerful and, if you were to catch your fingers, the result could be extremely painful!

I bought this with a little scepticism as on looking at my double glazing, it looked to be at least an inch thick, that is I half expected the magnets to not hold. This was the only one that stated it could handle that thickness so I took the risk anyway. Long story short, I am very impressed! Not so impressed with Amazon delivery as I had specifically requested that it be delivered in Amazon packaging but they just ignored that and stuck the delivery label directly to the main box with instructions printed on the outside. But that is a minor detail. The product itself is great.. Twist the 2 hand units and pull and they separate fairly easily. To reconnect, I just put one on counter top, then place the spacer and then put the other unit on top, with a snap! The magnets hold well on my windows. Just be careful at the start as I was turning mine, it kind of travelled onto the bevelled window frame forcing them further apart and it fell but I had the string so it didn't get far! Once I mastered cornering the little thing though, it was a great job! I basically had a little bowl of hot water with some added washing up liquid, and also a spray bottle of same. Sprayed the inside and outside of the windows, dip the points of the hand units in the water to cover the sponge and pad, and got to work. Glided over the windows, and the little blade left no streaks at all. And also, remember that while you are washing the outside of the windows, the insides are getting done at the same time. Brilliant time saver as well. It did a great job and I highly recommend it.

Pas du tout facile, la partie extérieure tombe dès que la vitre est sèche.

La notice est exclusivement en anglais. Difficile de l’utiliser

Estaría bien que los imanes se pudiesen regular porque me da miedo arrimarlos a la ventana.

très bien
