Manhasset Hand Wash

Avoid this place! The cleaning is shoddy and careless even though the price is relatively astronomical. I encountered a problem that needed management’s attention and was treated with complete indifference if not outright condescension. Being called a liar by the owner of the joint is not my idea of good customer service. Days later I also suspect that money was removed from the car during the process. Maximum exploitation and minimum regard for the job at hand! An awful experience.

The absolute best car wash experience I ever received!
Noticed a little of dirt on my car after the first wash and they drove it for a second wash and a free upgrade.

I had a great experience here. It’s a little pricier than the other machine wash places, but you get what you pay for with a hand wash.
The foam goes on extra thick, the guys actually scrub down parts of the car that mechanical mops suspended from the ceiling just don’t reach. If you drive anything more sculpted than a VW Beetle, this makes a huge difference.
I also like how they use pressurized air to get the puddles out so your door seals don’t get water stains after the puddles dry.
Overall a very positive experience. Four stars and not five because they didn’t clean under my spoiler and the area around the rear license plate as thoroughly as the rest of the car. No car wash is perfect but they come closer than the other places I’ve been to.

Is there really a difference between a hand car wash and a machine car wash? Well the answer is yes! Its called TLC. Not only does your car get first class service you don’t have to worry about 10 million scratches on your car when its finished being washed. The customer service is great. Which really means a lot to me. I purchased the special deal were I paid up front for 10 car washes so my wallet does not feel the pain. I appreciate the fact that there were eager to clean my trunk. I generally pass on that service. My trunk is the forbidden zone. The sell coffee and snack while you wait. Feel free to watch tv or watch your car become sparkling clean. Good job! If you would like deeper discounts here checkout Groupon!

been coming here for a couple years now. the staff is polite and respectful. Scott and Tony are 2 of the nicest owners you could ask for. you will pay a little more here, but if you like a car that’s actually clean after a car wash, this should be your first and last stop… like, ever.
I drive from bayside to manhasset just to get my car cleaned here because I tried the others locally, and the best job was done here.

Decent hand wash. They take your car to the side and take their time to clean every spot and deliver to you as a new car. Very impressed. Only down side, give your self some time when you go there. They really take their time to clean, which can work against you if you’re in a rush, make time if you’re going there, be patient. It’s worth it. Also it’s $ 30 bucks

****WARNING**** ****Warning**** ****WARNING****
Do not use this car wash!
TERRIBLY !
Today I went to get my Jeep SRT8 washed at this car wash.
First time there.
So I was watching how the process went… started out ok, vaccummed the inside, did an OK job…
Then they pull the truck up to the washing bay… that’s when things went wrong… when the worked pulled my truck up to get washed he floored the throttle petal to the floor reving the s h I t out of my engine…
Just what I need some jerk off @ a car wash abusing my vehicle. .nice.
So when I went to pay I spoke to the manager… let’s call him «mr. Arrogance «told him what had transpired, he could not give two s h I t s and tried to make up any BS excuse he could think of.
Then I spoke to the «owner» let’s call him «mr. I don’t give a shit about my customer» that conversation was like talking to a teenager… useless!
And to make matters worse… my truck was still dirty when they were finish with it.
****Also one side note… I understand a little spanish… Some of the comments they were making towards the female customers was discussing. .I would never let a female near this place.
There are several other car washes in the area…
DO NOT USE THIS ONE!

I was really disappointed. I got the manhasset wash which is suppose to be a mini detail. At the end of the wash, the interior of my car is still not clean and the trunk was not cleaned at all!

This place was called Manhasset Hand Wash when I went. It seems alright. I didn’t have a problem with the staff and my car came out pretty clean. Since it is a hand wash and hand dry, you do have to wait longer than other car washes.

Can I give 0 stars? The worst. Sloppy workers, the car came out looking not much better than before I paid the $ 29.00. The wheels were just glossed over with tire shine but the rest, well clean here and there. When I requested that they the wheels a once over, I was told I should have gone for the 32.00 wash, and the guys walked away. Tried this place 3 times just to make sure it was not just bad crew day, This was the last time for me. Several other car washes nearby to choose from. Good Bye East Shore…

Can I leave 0 stars!!! I pulled up and was going to buy a Groupon but it was sold out. The attendant told me no problem. He would still give me the 19.99 manhasset special. He wrote up the ticket and it read 39.99. I went back to him and mentioned this. He assured me I would only pay 19.99. I asked him to make a notation and he got annoyed and refused. I went to the cashier and informed her I was only to pay 19.99 as promised by the attendant. She knew nothing of this so she attempted to contact attendant via walkie talkie. No answer. Now we both go out and talked to the manager. He says he will honor it. So I payed. Got my car and guess what. They never added the wax. I got the 12.99 wash and paid 19.99 for it. Liars! Cheats! Scam artists! By the way they call themselves manhasset hand wash and detail now. Must have had to change their name to hide previous scams.

I got my car washed here a couple of times.
Not the cheapest place on Northern Blvd. But not bad. If you want more detailing and that type of thing, these guys can do it.
The only reason I wrote this was the only other review was 1 star. It’s not the best, but it’s better than that.

The worst wash I ever got. Car was still wet, dripping water and dirty. I showed this to the guy wiping down the car and instead of cleaning the car, he gets his manager just to inform me that if I want better service I should have them detail my car!!! I won’t set foot there again. Instead I’ll have my 12 year old wash the car for me. The results would be much better.
