Tyroler Glider D4 Magnetic Window Cleaner for Double Glazing | Double Sided Window Cleaner Tool | Fits 2-40mm Window Thickness | Adjustable Force Control | Window Cleaning Equipment Magnetic

Fabulous!Have 2 high windows with a sloping below that even the window can't get to. Excellent. Took 3 mins to clean the window to a good standard and far safer than crawling out onto the window cill to do the best I can manually. Bought the strongest magnets, just in case and never came apart

We live in a 2nd floor apartment, with window cleaning services that are really not good.Was sceptical about this but have to say that after a few trial runs and accidents it's a nifty bit of kit and quite easy to use. I use a spray window cleaner which works well and leaves virtually no streaks and have found that I don't really need to use the cloth. You have to be careful with the magnets, very powerful, which for cleaning is essential but if the green spacer would stay in place it would be much easier to unite the two magnet bars.

As described, I had a lightweight version that did not work on double glazing but this model has strong magnets and works well

The item broke on the first window I tried to clean (a Velcro strip came off because the plastic casing came apart) and the magnet kept failing and the outside portion dropping. The safety ring is only fixed with nylon string that keeps coming undone. Awful piece of equipment and terrible value for money.

This is about the only product out there that I could find to clean the 32mm glazing in my 8th floor flat, but… the outer bit drops a lot. With 32mm, you basically need the maximum magnet strength setting, but every time the other side drops off, it’s a bit heart-attack inducing, even with the safety cord. Don’t expect to get things all that clean, but it will get off the bulk of the dirt.Next, the cloths. These are a bit rubbish. The device comes with 2 thin cloths that Velcro to the two shorter sides. What that means is that when you move this from side to side, the cloth gets bunched up and loses contact with the window. It also exposes the corners, which have scratched the surface of the glass on the inside. They also don’t hold much water so you’ll be constantly needing to pull the outside bit in so you’ll can wet it again.Finally, the cost. £90 for this is utterly ridiculous if you ask me. Also, the best part of £20 for 4 spare cloths is daylight robbery.It got the worst of the dust off the outside of the windows so at least I can see out through glass that’s only smeared, but it was at some considerable cost and effort.

So bough this to use on upstair Velux windows which are at angle. Have tried other methods before, but the D4 has definitely been the only product that has helped clean the outside of the window at the same time, which I would normally never be able to effectively reach and clean properly. For the gliding to be easy you do need to put liquid on both sides of the window, sometimes this isn't ideal if the window is on top of you/ on the roof, but to get around dripping cleaner on me, I used the the microfibre cloth on the inside and cleaner on the outside.The magnets are very strong, so need to use them with care, they can separated if they come together (support were very helpful) , the magnets can also end up magnetising other metals near by, so need to watch out for that. One of the dials was faulty on mine after a single use, but again Customer Support have been great with prompt responses and will be sending a me a replacement.I do think it is a tad expensive, but it does get the job done!

doesn't settle perfectly for a 4mm double window, but the cleaning s is good. One point is the small super towels I wish they had provided a few more because they get dirty real quick and don't get washed easily

Very useful and well designed. Relatively easy to use if you go slowly and follow the instructions. My windows have small glass panels so the overall cleaning process was is a bit fiddly (I’m sure it would be easier with larger windows), but I still think that the tool is useful. It’s not perfect at the corners but the overall result is satisfying. The cloths it comes with (one pair) are not very good quality, one of the Velcro patches got torn after few uses, nothing that a little sewing won’t fix but not a good sign. Ah and you need at list two pair of clothes, one to use with detergent, the other with clean water. Also, I recommend the 4D version as it allows for more flexibility with glass thickness, mine are double glazed (I’m not sure about their actual thickness) and I’ve had to use almost the highest setting. Had I bought the 3D version (also recommended for double glazed windows) I’m not sure it would have worked. The safety string is a simple but very efficient. When in use, unless clamped on glass, keep the two pieces far away, as per instructions, even the slightest distraction can lead to very painful results, I’ve learnt it the painful way. Following from that keep absolutely away from children!
