$19 for a car wash that didn’t clean my car. This was the second time this has happened.

The wash was fine but the bay I drove into didn’t finish the job. The dryers stopped before I could start to pull my truck through. I don’t know if it was because someone threw a few empty cans out inside of the wash bay and they flew up in the air as it was starting or what. Would have been great if it were functioning as expected.

Signs say to "wear a mask" however, most people washing their car 🚗 do it alone, and there aren't typically any others within 6 feet. I understand having one on if vacuuming (where its close quarters) or if trying to speak with staff. Prices are average/fair in my opinion, however the site seemed 'run down and not inviting. Possibly consider livening the property up a little.

The staff was rude, and the prices are very high.

My truck ended up being to big for the automatic wash. The owner came out and told me how to get the automatic wash to work in the future for my truck. He then proceeded to refund me my money and have me pull in a manual wash bay. He washed my entire truck by hand and would not accept any money for the service. Great company and my car wash of choice in the future.

Make sure to not miss your turn here otherwise you'll get yelled at. Old guy can yell at a female but once a dude tells him to shut it he stays quiet but yells at the female still. All car people don't go here. Both owners are rude. Check out my fb to look at video proof

Never had a problem before yesterday when I used the 2nd bay and the hose to the pressure washer was covered in grease! Made it difficult to wash and took twice the time it should've. Would love to relay this information to their management team. May be a good idea to have someone service the center once or twice a day.

When I put some coins into the vacuum, they weren’t registering as being accepted. After a couple of minutes of attempting to get the machine to work correctly, an employee came out to help us, and solved our dilemma. He saw that we were struggling on his monitor and came out without us asking for help. He was also quite courteous and gave us credits for our inconvenience. We will definitely be going back to this place for our car cleaning needs.

I'm going to give it four stars because it doesn't have a rust inhibitor, but other than that it's very convenient and well kept with a brushless cleaning system which is great. This is an update to my last review. So after going there today I discovered they had upgraded their payment system which I found a welcome change. Okay so new update. I have had an undercoating done on my car and at this point I don't need under car rust inhibitor but I still very much appreciate the touchless wash and the high powered blow dryer which some places don't offer. But I finish it off with a quick drive on 89

This place was excellent and much more affordable/ effective than standard car washes. We are on a road trip in our mini RV/ camper and desperately needed a wash, but did not fit in most car washes due to height. We pulled into their ~13'6" self cleaning lane and was able to clean every component of the vehicle for only $6. Much better clean than most commercial drive-thru washes. The owner was kind and helped us with the hose and offered kind words for our travels. We would definitely come back again if ever in the area!

Chose the self service. Starting price is now $6. Went there the other day early in the afternoon and starting price was $5 🤔 All good. There’s always a line to get in. Everything working properly and today machine was taking cards as well. Sometimes, it’s broken and will only accept cash payment. There are 5 slots altogether. 3 are self service slots, one of which with a very high clearance. The other 2 are the automated (see picture with price list).

Never seen such a clean car wash! Justin the owner constantly helps people whenever they need it and if he isn't helping someone he is constantly cleaning the car wash itself. Never seen someone take so much pride in their company. Huge middle bay for RV or large trucks and vehicles. Smaller bays for regular cars. Automatic bay to relax while your car is washed. Busy with Fall bikers, tourists, kids going back to school and construction going on nearby.

This was the first time I've gone through the automatic car wash here. I chose the $12 cheapest price. It seems like it was a long wash. I think the higher priced might have done a better job. The trunk of my vehicle had streaks . Because it was so cold 🥶 11°s, my hubcaps were frozen! It was quite interesting! It was well dried. But tricky leaving slowly, dryers on either sides.

Fourteen dollars to "Splash" my car without cleaning it, and $2.50 for a shammy that just streaked up my car and left lint all over it. I couldn't even throw away the shammy packaging because there are no trash cans.Certainly not recommended. All photos are post automatic wash.

I chose the $14 dollar wash. I was impressed with the amount of water being used for the rinse. The dryer time was I believe 80 or 90 seconds. Good selection of cleaning supplies for the inside of the car. Im from out of state so don't know the area but I can say with certainty this car wash passed the test!

Automatic car wash is not worth the money. No scrubbing mechanisms, and the drying system is weak. The windshield grime was untouched and overall my car looks slightly rinsed at best. Hardly one to post negative reviews, but hoping to help others save $20!

There is a shampoo unit in the vacuum island on the right. $2 for 2 min. You can switch from the soap/bubble brush to the vacuum to suck up the suds. Worked pretty well. Wish it was a bit more time though.

Overpriced: very expensive car wash station. 7 dollars for 6 minutes car wash. Champ car wash in essex junction much better and worth it. 4 dollars for an 8-minute manual car wash.

Photos include the back of my car and a close up: Before After the touchless wash After my own wash The touchless wash was very entertaining to watch, but didn't really do all that much. You can see in the 2nd set of pics of my car it's still fairly dirty, especially on the overhang over my back window. I also included the photo of the prices of a single wash because I was only seeing bundle prices. I used the vacuum (1.50 for a few mins) and ultimately decided to just wash it again myself using the hoses. I included a photo of that price, what things you can choose, and how it counts your time/money. It's $6 for a little over 6 mins of time. Just wash it yourself. Only $6 versus over $10 and you can get it much cleaner and pay attention to what you really want cleaned. That has soap and high pressure rinses and made my car actually squeaky clean. It all worked great. The other big problem is you can throw away garbage there. They have vending machines with all kinds of wipes and stuff to clean the interior but no place to throw away. And not being able to throw away the trash in my car was disappointing because I was hoping to get it fully clean. Alas, I'll have to do it at home I guess. I guess they just don't feel like dealing with trash which I can understand but also, it's a full car wash! Oh well
