500 in supplies and equipment to take good care of my cars
I am very meticulous and anal when it comes to washing and detailing cars. I probably invested around $1,500 in supplies and equipment to take good care of my cars. Up until now, I've been using a leaf blower to dry my car. But due to its excessive noise, I had to consider alternate methods to keep my neighbors calm and cool. The blower I've been using is Toro Super Blower fyi.It seemed insane to spend $200 on a dryer. But it was only a matter of time until I started getting complaints from my neighbors, so I pulled the trigger and got this item. Worst case scenario, I can just return it if it didn't fit my needs. I was a little concerned at first as many people claimed the noise level to be similar to their leaf blowers'. However, I can tell you that this is SIGNIFICANTLY quieter compared to leaf blowers. Noise level is comparable to well made floor vacuums (i.e. Miele). On top of that, the output of air is incredibly strong. There's no need to go with the 8hp one as 4hp is more than enough. What used to take 30 min. with a leaf blower now only takes about 15. Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase and I will be keeping this for sure. In summary, here are some pros and cons.Pros:- Quieter than expected. Quiet enough to keep neighbors from complaining.- Craftsmanship is excellent.- 4hp output is more than sufficient. 8hp would be an overkill.- Cuts down the labor time by half (15 min. to completely dry a Toyota Camry)- The 10ft hose is more than enoughCons:- Without a dolly, you have to carry it around. It's not that heavy, but after 10 min., your arms do get tired.- The hose is very sturdy. This can be a good thing, but in my case, caused hose to be inflexible. I couldn't move it around as freely as I would've liked to. I had to be careful to keep the hose from scratching the surface/paint.- The electrical cord is not long enough. You will need an extension.

Wow what can I say about this little blower?
Wow what can I say about this little blower? This is quite the blower: very powerful and well made. I love it! I used to use a leaf blower but the Metro Blower is much easier and more powerful. The hose is the best quality rubber hose that I have seen you don't have to worry about it scratching the paint if it bumps your car or motorcycle. The tip on the hose is also made of soft rubber. I do recommend purchasing the little dolly with it otherwise I think you would almost have to carry it around by the handle in one hand the carry the hose in the other. With the little dolly it just follows you everywhere you go and has never turned over. I have a small shop with a drain in the floor so a can wash the car, truck and motorcycle inside. With this being said I'm not sure how well it would work if you were outside because the wind would dry it before you could get it blown off maybe. I use it to blow of all my vehicles and my dog. The hotter it is outside the hotter the Metro Vac will blow. It does not heat up the air as some seem to believe it should. The heat comes from the motor as you run it. Even in cool weather it will blow warm air after it has run for awhile. It takes awhile to get used to blowing off your vehicle. You want to start at the top and try to blow in the same dirrection because if you have to change dirrection you will blow water back on what you just dried. You have to keep moving the water with the blower until its all blown off.It does a great job and will blow water out of places you won't get with towel drying. I can wash my Harley and blow it off in about 35 minutes. Hope this helps!

It really blows.
Using this as a motorcycle dryer. As some reviewers said, the claim that it blows "warm, dry air" is a stretch: the air wasn't warm for me after 15 minutes of use. It's made by Meteo Vacuum which makes you likely guess right what it sounds like: a loud vacuum cleaner.As a tool, it's great but the use of it takes some practice. It's definitely faster and more thorough than hand drying. But I agree with others on the price point: At the end of the day this is a vacuum cleaner motor attached to a hose. No sound-insualted housing, no bag, a basic hose and some attachments. Given that vacuum cleaners have more to them, I think this is overpriced. If you had a shop vac you kept clean, you can just switch it to reverse and get the same thing, except it would have two functions.Don't hate it enough to return it, but I'd get something else for the 2nd garage.

The base isn't well thought out....but the blower itself is!!
Bought mine in 2015 when I bought my black 5.0. Pretty much WOULD NOT own a black car (with black wheels) without a blower. Almost 6 years later, it's still cranking like the day I bought it. (I'm actually looking on amazon now to replace the bearings....as they say you should)IN 2015 THIS THING WAS 161....NOW IT'S ALMOST 230!!!! Proof how good it is....it's worth 230.WHY IT'S BETTER THAN YOUR LEAF BLOWER:You're not holding the motor...just a flexible, long, hose with a beautiful "safe for anything" rubber nozzle. Your shoulder thanks you. And so does your car, as you don't have to raise the blower over the fenders, to get the hood.The air goes over the motor, and heats up, so you get filtered, heated air.Again, the rubber nozzle gives you a better blast of air to dry a car than your leaf blower's nozzle.You just look Pro AF using it. LOL

I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to cut their drying time ...
Very handy! I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to cut their drying time in half. MUCH better than any blower and the warm air definitely makes a difference. Very useful for drying cars/trucks as well. Well worth the money!Handy Hint: put on a small furniture dolly you can buy at a hardware store for $10 and you won't have to worry about it falling over as you move around the vehicle. It's sits perfectly on the small dolly and with a small bungee cord around the body it's just like a vacuum cleaner with wheels and won't tip over.
