5.0 out of 5 stars My kids all love this toy., January 15, 2005

This set was the first of 4 Matchbox playsets that my son received for Christmas. He received it at a pre-Christmas gift exchange and all my kids (age 2, 3 1/2 and 5 1/2) had such a fabulous time playing with it that we got him 2 more for Christmas and he bought one himself with a gift card.

The car wash is a pretty simple playset, but all the kids love it. So I bought one for my nephew's birthday and he's having a blast with it as well.

You can put water in it to really "wash" the cars, but I left it dry to avoid any messes. They haven't seemed to mind at all.

I love that there aren't a bunch of small pieces to fall off and get lost. It's definitely been a hit at our house.

We also have the Police Station (similar size) and the larger Haunted House and Buried Treasure sets. They are all wonderful.

This is a great toy, especially for the price. Ther are no stickers to apply. Nothing to put together. Just open and start playing. My son(2 1/2) loves to wash his cars and then spin the fan to "dry" them. I recommend this for any car loving little boy or bigger boy. My 5 year old nephew also loves to play with this toy.

We bought this Car Wash for our little boy to go along with the Matchbox hero city playset. He got it for his 4th birthday and out of all the gifts he got for his birthday- the matchbox hero city car wash and the rest of the set is what he spends most of his time playing with out of everything else. We finally have a use for all the cars he has- he loves taking the cars through the wash and up the elevator to get dried off! I highly recommend the Matchbox hero city playset and the car wash by its self is a great product! I am so happy that Matchbox has came out with the awesome sets that you don't have to put together and they can be moved without pieces falling off of them. Its great to be able to use all those little matchbox and hot wheels cars we had stored in their box. Now they get played with daily and it keeps my little boy occupied on those rainy days!
