Has anybody reported a tunnel from China?

Ha e a friend who bought the Chinese "Razor" wash. Only $70k installed. Broke down constantly, couldn't get enough parts/help, & ripped it out less than 18 mos! He was "all-in" on it to.
This was ripped out Feb 2026, so very recentl

Is it on car wash consignment? Someone might want it!

There is also the guy on talk car wash that been trying to sell a Chinese machine forever, I think his latest price was $5500 brand new still in crate.

Feel like a Chinese made IBA is buying a babysitting job for the wash owner

To be fair that one was bouht but AFAIK the lease deal on the site fell through so he didnt have anywhere to install it.

My point was he has had it for sale forever with a cheaper and cheaper price and still can't sell it. Any razor or pdq or similar US made unit would be long sold

to me the peace of mind and low stress lifestyle are totally worth the retail price of a quality machine like a WashWorld razor.

i've struggled in the past with problematic equipment. Not just my original automatic, which was one of the least expensive units I could buy but with things like the incorrect doors for a car wash environment. I have no interest in going back to the stress of those decisions/equipment choices.

As important as which machine you buy, is the distributor and his experience and capabilities. In my thoughts having owned both, an IBA requires a factory trained distributor with an ecosystem of parts more so than a conveyor,

100%. I think that’s going to be an obvious first stumbling block of our install
