They do a great job! Everytime I get my car back after being detailed it always looks brand new.

If youd like your car to get completely scratched up I suggest you go to 1st choice auto wash. I had the privilege of getting my new car scratched up and told the workers there what happened. They suggested I bring it in so they could take a look. When I brought it in they took my number and said they would have their boss Chad give me a call. I waited a week and then called again and got an answering machine so I left a message to call me back. Another week went by and I sent an email. Another week went by and I took it in where they said they would buff them out but told me they couldnt do anything for my deep scratches and I was pretty much screwed. So I got an estimate and said they could either pay for it or I would just taking to small claims. I FINALLY got a call back from Chad who proceeded to yell at me and DARE me to take it to court. Very rude and very poor customer service. All in all, Id say my experience here was poor. Thats my rating.

Took my SUV in for a detail, apologized for the mess I allowed my 4 children to make in there. it was GROSS! she stated shes seen worse lol but I still felt bad. They were professional, quick and very very good and honestly I couldnt be happier. Ive taken it to other places in town and was very disapointed. so I can say without a doubt 1st choice auto wash is the BEST detail shop in town! Thanks so much guys. Definitely recommending you.

I love on a farm so my car was extremely dirty. The man working sprayed it all down extra well and I left with a spotless car, which is rare since normally at other washes it’s not nearly as clean. Excellent! Responsibly priced, 10/10 would recommend.

1st class wash all the way. Especially the pre wash. Guys took their time going around with pressure washer before even starting 👏.

Best car wash around. They pre rinse and give you a rag to wipe down the interior while you car goes through. People are always friendly and the vacuums are complimentary

This place is awesome. Between 12-16 dollars; Includes car wash (they have workers who pre spray!), chamois to wipe down inside of your car, free (And awesome) vacuum, and towels to dry your car too. I love it here... wont go anywhere else in town!

Fantastic wash. Fit our big van and had free vacuums after. Only reason its not 5 star is it still doesnt touch the mess blocked by the side windows.

Good service, very fast depending on the job you’re requesting. Their vacuums are free, but lacking in power. Would definitely use again.

Update 3/1/18: Ive gone back to give it a go again to see if things are any better. I tried the basic wash and the next level wash on 2 different vehicles and the results were the same. There were still areas that did not get clean. They wiped off, but I think if Im paying for a wash it should get washed. A hand wash would be the best thing if you want a good car wash, sadly there arent any in town. I guess if you just want to get 99% of the grime off and you are short on time and got $10 on you, this will suffice.Original Review: Got most of the dirt off, I guess...left the back end of my Jeep dirty, other reviews Ive seen have had the same experience and it doesnt appear that it is something theyve remedied. Maybe they do a good job on other services but the washing part could be improved upon.

Review №28

Good wash at a fair enough price, just wish they towel dried the car by hand at the end and had more powerful vacuums (possibly the filters are clogged or just needs a more powerful motor). Id consider this my 2nd Choice in-town (see what I did there?).

Review №31

Paid for Gold package car detailing (most expensive) and was told my car would look new when they were done.. I was so excited and thought maybe Id do this every couple years. Well.. every window was smeared and corners cut- a couple missed spots is understandable- but every window is very poor quality. There was also dust and dirt in numerous nooks and crannies that I was able to get out with just wiping it with a wet wipe. The headliner got overlooked apparently because there were dirty spots all over it. I called them and they said they thought it had looked awesome when they were done- Well that sure doesnt say much for their work ethic! I stopped by to show them and they did offer to touch up a few spots but after seeing the quality of the cleaning for them having my car the whole day, the 15 minutes they said it would take to touch up probably would not have amounted to anything anyway. For paying almost $300, it was a HUGE disappointment.. No way would I recommend this place for car detailing.

The staff were not friendly in the slightest and they broke off the front decal of my vehicle. When I went in to address my issues with the supervisor he did not care in the slightest. I dont plan on ever going back here and I just wasted $12.

My kids love this car wash, I would recommend folding in mirrors like they suggest. Love the free vacuume service and they give you a cloth to clean the dash.

Review №35

Leaves linear scratches on the hood. The blowers at the end just cause the water to blow around, not off. The spot free rinse still leaves hard water spots

The complimentary vacuums are nice, but you dont get the hand dry or quite the same pre-wash detail as the other wash in town, and its more expensive.
