Yeah a friend of mine in England and brought it back as it was useless. It's hard to beat the Kracher it's the old story one gets what one pays for.

With my huge expanse of windscreen and two kids sleeping down front I think that'd be the job for us. I would only buy the quality one though, anyone have a link to the one Jack mentions or indeed does any one own one?

Thanks.

I have a Karcher one and they are a great job but with being based on a van you can't get it down to the bottom of the windscreen unless you hold it upside down and it really doesn't like that.

We use silver screens Whippy and never have condensation - if you can get them for you RV, you may have to get tailor made ones. They are the dogs!

Internal ones = no condensation and I mean none. I couldn't believe it when we used them the first time. I had to mop the windscreen before that! They are not cheap especially taylor mades! :happy:
