The stem consists of 4 parts, which are simply plugged together. With about 120 cm, he is not one of the greats. Unfortunately, the stem is for the major shortcoming: it has been designed for unstable. An instruction manual with a note "... Attention wobbles wildly rum ... it can not be so -although aussieht- used anyway ..." is missing. Apropos manual -lediglich 6 more or less meaningful pictures on the box floor not more. So you have to then have a few things piece together.
With the stem we could absolutely not -zack befriend, away with it! Thank God, we still had a discarded scrubber -whose stem now adorns the Leifheit. The result: much better -very much better-unfortunately suffers the optics under the yellow stem :-).
The narrow wiping surface: only 34cm -The Wipe will probably take longer than before. I was surprised that the narrow wiping surface even brings also benefits to some problematic points of our apartment. Longer wiping then has not lasted.
Next problem: the wringing is not so easily possible as with two healthy, strong hands. In particular for the laminate-wringing result is too moist.
CONCLUSION:
Who does not want to get their hands wet, will not create a household gloves, wants to bend down as little as possible or can and accidentally has an old scrubbing brush handle left and also like more for replacement covers (undoubtedly of very good quality) spends even a few Euros, can courageously access in this product produced in Czech. Everyone else can rest assured to stay with your current solution.
ADDENDUM:
About 10 months have passed. In the meantime I really enjoy working with the Leifheit Combi. It is quite comfortable. Only 2 issue points (actually 3, but stem problem is solved) remain: the wiping result is a tick too wet for laminate; The cover can be sometimes just click it very tedious.
Although I wring strong has not yet yielded -entgegen my Befürchtungen- the Wringing tool.
TIP: water is not as high as fill on the product images! A little below the wringer enough. This gives a better Auswringergebenis -and you can wring out by ear.
