I bought this product to wash my car occasionally (once or twice a week, weather permitting). I bought this length of handle because I believe it doesn't need to be longer, and as I found out during use, I was right. First comment: Besides the fact that it doesn't need a longer length, I doubt if a longer and therefore heavier handle would withstand even the most careful use because it is not constructed that strongly (it will bend). Comment for anyone considering buying it for more professional use (washing buses or tractors). Also, during extension or retraction of the handle, it has problems with "biting" and becomes annoying to use. Second comment: The threads of the handle that screw into the brush don't have enough depth, meaning the "teeth" don't have enough "meat" to give a sense of security that it will stay screwed in (it did unscrew a bit during use, enough to splash). or that it will withstand over time. Third comment: The brush is quite soft, which is positive so it doesn't scratch the paint, but the negative is that it sheds fibers during the first use. It is also relatively small, okay for small cars but not so much for larger ones. Fourth comment: The only thing worth mentioning is that it has a quick connect fitting and a valve that stops the water flow. It is worth it in terms of functionality, but I can't vouch for the durability of the materials. In conclusion: Personally, I believe its value should be placed between €8 and €10, maybe €13 with shipping, but no more than that. I bought it for €20.10... I don't think it will withstand many washes, although I will use it with great care because I simply regret spending my money (almost half a day's work).
