Impressive - my car looks new again
After getting my car serviced at Kia, I was given a voucher for a free car wash at Magic Hand Carwash - Ferntree Gully.
I really didn't expect much - maybe a quick squirt with a hose. But wow these guys put in an impressive effort. First they hand washed then 3 of them dried, waxed and buffed. They even put tyre black on the tyres.

Steer clear
Website $10 offer not accepted; told "not us" despite showing them the sms and email with same business branding. Guy walked away mid discussion as fellow with larger car arrives.
Quoted $220 for wash inside and out ... website shows this as $39.
Kept insisting it was "from" $39. Errrr ... sure....
Got offended and swore at me when i drove away.
Very uninterested and rip off merchants.

DON'T USE THESE PEOPLE
On pick up of my husbands Sahara 4 Wheel Drive we received a nice big deep scratch which they denied any part of & told us it was there before. My husband gave benefit of the doubt and took my Pajero in for a detail, got home and the privacy screen at the back was missing he went back and they all looked at him not knowing what he was talking about, they did find it for him and returned it. But after he left he realised that the radio was not working and neither was the reverse camera. No use going back as they will deny this also. These de...Read more
tails cost us $700 for both and now and extra $1500.00 to replace what they have blown. Wished I'd read the reviews and I will be reporting them to Westfield Carindale and advising them of the bad reviews on this site!!!!!!Purchased in June 2021 for A$700.00.

This is a joke
So I used a groupon voucher to get my car “superior cleaned” when I picked it up .. it’s was a real big disappointment could have done a better job myself. I had to pay $12 parking for something that wasn’t even up to standard the inside wasn’t even clean and then I was told they charged extra for dog hair.. - which I’ve never been told until now and I go here all the time. Not only that they lost my garage remote( it was just the power board) but still. Not really the point the only garage remote we have. Won’t be going to this car wash EVER again! Highly disappointed!

very disappointed
Outside of car looked good from a distance when I collected the car but when I drove out into the sunlight could see swirls and patches that had been missed and windscreen not cleaned properly. Although the price list specified cleaning inside and outside of a 7 seater around the back row of seats was not touched at all nor were the seats. $85 later and I'll have to finish the job myself.

Terrible Experience
I paid for inside and out service (Westfield Carindale) and received nothing. It was a terrible experience. They clearly missed the interior part, they didn’t wiped, dusted, vacuumed or even cleaned the windows. My car also had a greasy mark that wasn’t there before.
I asked the manager to check it, so he took my car somewhere for 5 minutes and brought it back. When I had a look again I noticed that they only had cleaned the driver spot and the rest of the car still the same. All this plus a nasty smell of sweat that they left in my new car.

They had 2 goes, and I then had to rewash and polish to get rid of the swirls/ the scratches they's
I thought the premise of these places was they were better than a machine wash, and saved you time?
Took my car to Frankston for a wash, windows, and interior wipe over. The job was so poor you could barely see through the windscreen and they had missed entire patches of the car. I complained and rather than wash it again properly, they came out and wiped over the windscreen & dirty bits with a dry cloth. When I got home and saw the car in the sun light, I could see they must used dirty clothes (or brush) all over the car as there were light scratches/swirls all over the car. So I then had to rewash my car, and hand polish to remove the swirls.
I would've been far better to run it through a machine wash.

$180 Car wash from hell
thumbs down to magic hand wash hoppers crossing for providing the $180 car wash from hell.
On their website it displays the suv package as $29. I also used a coupon which Popped up on their website for a free $30 wax and polish. Upon calling ahead, I was informed that that package was only a quick outside wash. I was then told that everything was actually $49 and the website was not correct. Upon arriving I was asked to pay $49 for the package which included everything. I paid for what I thought was $49 only to discover a $10 charge that I ...Read more
had not consented to was added as an “upgrade” which I was never told about!?!?. After paying $60 for a whole wash, I was left with the pictures in the attachments! Unbelievable! It doesn’t stop there. I called and complained and the manager asked to bring it back to him to get it cleaned again. I am thankful for the manager allowing me to do this. Did that. When I arrive for the second clean the guy who served me has the audacity to try to sell me a $380 detailing service as it will clean everything that I want to be cleaned. He then said what I want to be cleaned (ice cream marks and dirt in the carpet) can only be cleaned with a $380 detailing package! I licked my finger and wiped it over the ice cream marks and dust and it came off, in front of him. Upon redoing the entire service again, this time not taking 20 minutes but taking 45 minutes as it should, the car was still filthy including sticky sauce marks on the rear seats which can easily be wiped with a wet cloth and a new mark is even on the rear sunroof which looks like lotion or cream which wasn’t even there before the wash occurred. Long story short $180 worth of washes and car hadn’t been touched in 80% of it’s sports that should be cleaned. tried to then up sell me to a $380 package which I said no to. After the second $90 car wash (which was free) the inside of the boot wasn’t even touched and new marks and dirt have been introduced into the car. This $180 worth of car washes could have been done better by a kid for $10!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Superior Scratch & Damage!!
Went into Kingsbury store. Wanted a wax & polish as well as leather treatment = $100. He quoted me $199 for hand wax & polish, tyres painted, & leather seats treated. They make sure you've paid in full prior to them starting. It was a sunny day & the 2nd time driving my recently deceased partners Mercedes SLK 350 Black colour 2 yrs old. Once at home & in a carpeted garage I could see the most disappointing workmanship that I had just paid $199 for. There was also a deep 3 inch scratch on the inside of the lower part of windscreen. Chemicals h...Read more
ad not been wiped off the rear vision mirror & leather still looked same. The wax on the outside trim & edges of windows wasn't buffed in at all. Photos were taken from both parties. I asked, the " representative " for the car wash who called me, for a refund. With a condescending tone of voice and slightly raised he refused & said he could only offer me the same service for free and would have to investigate the scratch on windscreen by viewing footage of the day, as their staff ' don't ' wear jewellery. I explained that I didn't want any of their services, and had received quotes to repair scratch. Between $60 & $80 for them to come to me. All I was asking for was a refund. With that his voice was raised further & condescendingly I was told " There are cameras everywhere " !!! Told him I was happy for him to investigate & to let me know the outcome. This all occurred on the 13th NOV 2018. Today's date is 12th JAN 2022 and am yet to hear anything from them.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
