Pressure washer wand back belt,
November 2, 2009
By DaveThePlumber
from San Leandro CA
"I agree with one of the other reviews. This was junk! This belt also broke during my first and only time using it. The clip/holder for the wand broke away from the belt. It also seemed awkward to use."

Wand Back Belt,
October 19, 2009
By TiminLa
from Louisiana
"Must have if you will be operating the telescoping wands at full extension, or if you operate one for an extended period. One problem - the waist buckle is flimsy. Use caution when buckling it. It must be aligned or the prongs will break."

No problems with mine,
October 10, 2009
By thundermug
from missouri
"I'm a big guy and I was impressed by the fact that this belt fit me without having to modify it. Usually when a product description says "One size fits all" they really mean one size fits most average sized people.
To be fair though, I do not use this belt as frequently as some of the other reviewers use theirs. If I did I might encounter the problems they mention. All I can say is that I did not encounter any of the problems mentioned by other reviewers the few times I have used mine."

Complete Junk,

By POCTOB
from SC
"Buckle that attaches wand to the belt broke the very first day. Belt itself is very awkward and severely limits your range of motion with the wand. You are better off without it."

General Pump Pressure Washer Telescoping Wand Back,
July 13, 2009
By ralpheu
from Salinas, CA
"Belt is good but the part that holds the wand is weak only lasted one day and broke. Needs to be reinforced. I really like the belt at first while I was useing it, I was washing a 2 story apartment building for about 4 hours and it was working great until it broke. It was a real bear handling the 24 foot wand after that. I plan on reinforcing it myself because I need the suport for my wand as I do a lot of 2 story washing."

General PumpTelescoping Wand Back Belt,
November 19, 2008
By Den69RS96
from Sturbridge, MA
"This belt made using the 18ft extension wand much easier. The wands get heavy after a while and the belt allows you to continue washing long after your arms get tired. Once you get it adjusted, its easy to use. The detachable clip is a nice feature so you don't have to take the whole belt off when putting the wand down."

Good Idea but poor design,
August 12, 2008
By RJP5
from New Jersey
"The pressure washing belt was more cumbersome then helpful. The bolts and nuts provided to attach the wand where inadequate and did not allow for a full range of motion.
The final solution was to remove the belt and complete the job.

Belt,
August 11, 2008
By JoeG
from Port Huron, MI
"I didn't find this belt useful at all. It didn't help support the wand and seemed cheap to me. If it was a little more heavy duty at the connections and had two shoulder straps, it might be a little better, but I think that it is still going to be a workout to use the telescoping wand with or without the belt."

HINT on using belt,
April 17, 2008
By Pondini
from Florida
"I agree with the general tenor of other reviews -- this product is not great, but it's not terrible, either. A better attachment to the wand would be a LARGE improvement. Initially I had the same trouble with the clip holding the wand -- it just wouldn't hold. But turning the plug around (180 degrees) it fits the socket tighter and, so far, holds my 24-foot wand without pulling loose. Your experience may differ, but if you're having this trouble, give it a try."

"This belt is not very adjustable when it comes to the shoulder strap. I bought it after reading the reviews on the 18 and 20 foot telescoping wands. Although it it is not well designed, it IS better than nothing."

Wasn't Helful,
July 10, 2007
By Fleck
from Yardley, PA
"I ordered the belt but after receiving it did not end up using it. It appeared to be more work than help and I felt it would only be useful in an application where you did not have to take the wand down frequently."
