Good find! I just bought one. I hate trying to clean the windshield, hopefully it really works.

I'm assuming this thing works like it is supposed to, if not better? I was curious how well it worked?

I think the only advantage is for the front windshield because the part where it slopes to the dash is difficult to reach with just you hand. I suspect you are not tinting the windshield.

I can vouch that this works pretty good. I picked up a knock off brand for about $5 at the Christmas Tree Shop store. Perfect for our front windsheilds.

I got one in the "AS Seen on TV" section of the local grocery store, works pretty well. It's certainly easier cleaning than using paper towels and your arm.

We have the "As Seen on TV" one as well that my husband uses on his G6... he's not all that impressed with it, but he's pretty obsessive over windshield cleanliness (maybe to the point of being slightly insanely (removed))...

I hear ya, Ponta. I tried one of these years ago (still have it), and it was shaped more like a triangle so you could get into tight spots. All it did was collect about half the dirty smudges and leave the other half behind. I tried and tried to get good results, but it just didn't work to my liking. Maybe I need one these newer versions...

The other says, "I don't have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you". As long as this gadget works better than using my arm I am satisfied.

The worst windshield I had to clean was in my old Trans Sport.

I have one of these. The AS-Seen-On-TV one. It works great, but not exactly as claimed. ...They claim simple water alone with the tool will clean well. I found this not to be true. Using a glass cleaner solution of your choice will yield the best results!

I was looking at that product at Walgreens yesterday lol. It seems practical. Getting to the base of the windsheild CAN be a pain lol.
