Puts out a surprising amount of air
Didn't expect much from such a small blower but this thing puts out a surprising amount of air. Originally purchased with the intent of getting water out from the crevices of my car. Decided to dry the entire car (a small SUV) and it actually does a decent job. The sidekick will not dry the car completely but does about 85-90% of the job. I would say it's similar to the blowers in an automated car wash. Before having the sidekick, I would use a large micro fiber drying tower and would have to wring the towel dry about 5-6 times before the car was dry. With the sidekick, I just have to go over the car lightly with the micro fiber towel and it is barely damp when I'm done. While the sidekick does not save a ton of time, it does make the drying process much less labor-intensive and reduces the amount of physical contact necessary to dry the car. Also found that it works well to blow out my PC of dust bunnies.

Nifty little machine
Great little tool to have on hand. Has multiple use functions. In a small to medium size garage, you can use it to blow away the dust and leaves, for motorcycles it has a great use and for cars, to dry the water off in about 15-20 minutes. Interested to see any add ons I can purchase with it to enhance the utility but otherwise great buy.

Amazing,powerful
This machine can defiantly dry off an entire car. I dried off my front porch with it! Don't point it at your face. It blows over small children.j/k This thing really blows! I like the rubber tip they give with it so it won't scratch or dent your car. Worth every penny! I swear, a towel will never touch my car again!

So much power in such a small user friendly blower
I honestly did not expect this handheld blower could have that much power, but I was quickly proven wrong. I purchased this to mainly blow out the residual water from the fine crevices of my car and motorcycle. The days of drying your car only to find water drainage spots all over are long gone. Can this blower dry a full car - yes its possible, although it would take a couple passes and you're better off just using a really good microfiber or waffle weave towel. What is this blower GREAT at? Getting the water out of the hard to reach areas such as your mirrors, windows, engine bay, wheels, etc. I dried my 20" wheels without ever having to touch them which was great! I believe this purchase may have been the best purchase I've made in 2020. It saves me so much time, and I dont have to see the ugly water drainage spots left after admiring a clean car. Do yourself a favor and spend the hundred to save yourself time! Side note: make sure you wear ear buds or some sort of ear protection - it does get really loud

Quality Air Dryer
This is my second Metro Vacuum Blaster Sidekick. My last one lasted 12 years. Only reason it died was it developed a short in the pigtail cord, but that was my fault from doing a loop in the connection between the unit's cord and my extension cord for all those years. I don't do that anymore (old construction site habit). I used the old one on three vehicles literally at least once a week, or sometimes even more. The new unit is just as powerful, if not more powerful than the old one. It really hasn't changed much, which is a good thing. When the old one conked out, I found out how much I depend on the Blaster. It's amazing how much water you can get blown out of all the crevices and crannies on my cars and truck. It's perfect for drying tires and rims before applying wheel products or tire dressing. I'm thrilled Metro Vacuum is still making these units. Just buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Does what it says
Great product. Cuts down car drying significantly when combined with microfiber or waffle towel drying. Great for blowing out water in wheels, cracks, and crevices for wax preparation.

works really good
I will say this little machine is really good. I bought it just for the small-medium detail work,grill,mirrors and hatches and rims.The power is really good. Compaired it to a couple other machines and just did not compare. It is about 6 lbs. and easy to handle especially if you have a SUV.

Muy bueno
Me gusta mucho como funciona, el único pero es que el cable es muy corto y se necesita si o si una extensión
