I've hand washed it so many times now in the driveway.
First Detailing!

Kevin,
While that is a TRUE statement, it's also a problem as the hose is very "stiff" and cumbersome. Not sure I'd want to wrestle with 30 ft of it.
I bought the wall mount bracket and hose hanger after having the Master Blaster about a year. Now the unit hangs on the wall in a corner next to my work bench, about waist high and the "hose hanger" is mounted very high on the wall, about 6" below the ceiling. Now, my 10 ft of hose goes up, and down in a narrow area. No more fighting with the hose.
As for use, I have a 50 ft heavy duty extension cord, and with the 10 ft of blower hose, it's perfect. It wheels around on my driveway just fine. I only pick it up and move it when going to the other side of the car.

I'm starting to think that the McKee's 37 Turbo may be quite a bit more user-friendly in carrying it on your back as opposed to dealing with Master Blaster's cord, "hot" hose and pulling/rolling it around.

I bought a mini 20v battery powered blower the same brand as my power tools. Has 3 speeds and it beats having to take the time to get extension cords out for some other options. I still use a product and a wet microfiber for the majority of my drying. The blower will help with standing water in tight areas etc. I'm sure you can do the whole car with it but I am happy with my drying product and microfiber routine.

That makes a lot of sense.

I have the Master Blaster and love it...mounted on the wall close to the garage door. I went to the local pool supply store and bought a 30 pool vacuum hose that connects right up to the MB. The hose is very flexible, I never have to move the Blaster from its mount on the wall, and have plenty of hose to go around my cars.

I looks great Kevin---I like washing with just hose and cloth, no soap and it works very good. BTW---beware of son-in-law sucking up to "borrow" car sometime...kidding of course, have fun
