I was thrilled to discover this is made right here in the USA, and there is no shortage of great reviews on it. It exudes great quality from the moment you open the box and see MetroVac's slogan: "Deliberately made better in the USA." Equally impressive was how quickly and thoroughly it dried my car with no spotting and with no evil water left behind in the cracks and crevices - you know, the stuff that waits until you drive across the street to get a corny dog to drip out and ruin everything. Using a single 4HP motor did most of the job, including all of the detail work. I'm still getting used to its power, so I haven't yet tried the full two-motor 8HP at length, but it could blow the stink off a dead water buffalo from where they sell those corny dogs across the street.
This is a true dryer, so it warms up the air to aid in the drying process, but it doesn't get so hot it'll harm delicate surfaces. I definitely recommend using hearing protection, but the machine itself isn't very loud; it's the sound of the air when it strikes and interacts with surfaces of different shapes, and that's mostly with the detail work when your ears are closer to the nozzle.
Though it seems a little pricey, it is absolutely worth it for the AMERICAN MADE quality. I definitely recommend this dryer for your car. It did a beautiful job, and I am now looking into other products MetroVac produces.
While it is sold to blow dry cars and motorcycles, it can be used for so many more things. It does well as a blower for the driveway or garage, either carry it or get a shoulder strap. I use it after mowing the lawn to blow the clippings off of the mower deck, keeps the mower clean and looking new. Of course we use it to blow dry several motorcycles and cars, and for that it is excellent. Noise level isn't as bad as I thought it might be, so it is acceptable to me. But once you start to grasp what all it can do, it becomes even more valuable. I would suggest getting the 10 foot extension hose, nice to have, and for those complaining about the hose coming off of the blower, they likely have trouble with a screwdriver as that is a pretty basic concept of fitting the hose onto the blower as far as it will go and tightening, but not over tightening the clamp. To complain about that is to admit an inability to deal with many things mechanical......
All in all a good piece of equipment, versatile beyond what the manufacturer might realize. Think "big blow dryer" or "big blower" and you can use the air force to make many jobs easier. Drying animals, no problem. Drying or cleaning vehicles, easy. Moving dust and dirt, simple. Just remember eye protection, like safety glasses.
This unit comes with two 4 HP motors, both can run independently or together at the same time for a total of 8 HP. It runs on 19 Amps, and generally most garages are wired for 20 Amps, so hopefully it shouldn't be a problem for anyone. It even ran on full power with no problem even though a bunch of different things were being powered by the same circuit.
The steep price for this blower means this isn't really for everyone. You could probably dry you car as fast with a towel as you can blow dry it, the only difference is that this is more for OCD people who want their car completely dry and minimize any swirls and scratches that may result from drying with towels. If you really care how your car's paint will look, then this will be a terrific investment. If you just wash your car just for the sake of it being clean and don't wax it or anything, you're probably better off with just using towels.
