    Was that comment really necessary??? For anyone brushing new plaster 2-3 times a day, this brush head can really save them some trouble . . .

    S, you seem to care about not only your pool, but other's. Therefore I am willing to discuss this. You are looking at the 'small picture' (the few weeks that a newly plastered pool NEEDS daily, repeated brushing), my commnts were about 'maintenance' brushing - the once a week variety that every pool owner should do. I don't doubt that this product will make brushing easier, and I said that if mwsmith thinks it's good, it must be. However, a lot of people come here to reduce the amount of money they have to spend on their pool, and, cool as it is, it's an expense that many folks can't fit into their budget.
    I try to post only when I can add something to the discussion, I don't really care about my 'post count', you may not realize this, as the 'old' material is gone. However, anyone who 'calls me out' is going to get a reply, and I was gentle with you.

    I just wanted to follow up after having used this brush . . . It does work and remarkably well, I must say. My pool startup guy used it and was sold from the first brush stroke. I haven't used a brush in years and he made me try the regular brush so I could appreciate the difference. It really helps the brush hold against the wall, with no jittering or skipping across the surface. Everything they say in the marketing of this product has held up to trial . . . Not sure about brushing the pool in record time, but it certainly helps, as one stroke pretty much does it . . . Hope this thread helps and Waste, sorry for getting off the subject, hope there are no hard feelings . . .

    Thanks everyone!!

    Thanks. I think I'll give it a shot.

    I was thinking before that it might be easier to push but that there might be more resistance when pulling it back, but it sounds like that's not a problem.

    When pulling the brush back the tail flops over allowing the brush to be pulled back with ease.
