They have great technology that reads my plate number for quick entry, without any hassle. It is relaxing to just sit in the car and enjoy the light show, as I crank up the radio..

Visited Waukee location and was told by a new employee that they were running a special for $15.00…read morefor 3 months. I confirmed with employee if this is $15.00 each month and employee responded, it's $15.00 for all 3 months. Because this would total $5.00 a month I questioned their current special again with employee and their response was again, it's $15.00 for all 3 months, so I signed up! At a later date, I was going through receipts in my car and I questioned this again, so I contacted their # which is 1-833-712-1747. I spoke to a very helpful gal who mentioned that I may possibly be given a free month for the mix up, as she transferred me to a James at their corporate office. He said, it's incorrect what the employee told me and it's $15.00 EACH month for 3 months. It's exactly what I had originally thought. James with his cockiness felt superior to the customer over the phone, as if the customer is at fault for "hearing" the special incorrectly, although I reiterated with their employee a few times about their current special. I don't think James thought I'd cancel my membership over the phone with him, as my family has been with this company on and off for several years. I most likely would not have cancelled, but due to James superior attitude and his desperate need to feel like a big man, I'll now suggest for James taking a class on phone etiquette and tact, as he has no personality dealing with customers. James, if I can give you any helpful advice; I'd suggest just sit back, take a deep breathe, look up at the ceiling and get up out of your chair, then walk over to the nearest mirror and lean in, take a close look and say to yourself; I probably need to stay the F off of the phone. Have a nice day, James!

Most importantly, the customer service cannot be beat. Brandon, one of their service technicians, is always available to meet any special requests--extra attention to lots of bugs, spraying inside the wheel wells if it's been especially muddy and bringing towels if they run out. I'm a huge fan of this car wash--we've used others in our travels and none compare! Cheri B.

My business will be going elsewhere and I hope anyone that chooses to use this company nothing happens to their vehicles. Absolute trash of a business for customer service.

I understand that mistakes happen. What I do not understand is how a simple misunderstanding…read moreescalated into such an unnecessary and unacceptable experience. Because my new truck currently has temporary license plates, I must provide my membership code each time I visit. My code is BP1975. To avoid confusion, I always say it using the NATO phonetic alphabet: "Bravo Papa 1975." I do this because attendants have previously entered the wrong letters when I simply stated "BP." I should also explain that I recently suffered a stroke and continue to experience lingering effects. The stroke left me with partial paralysis in my throat, which limits my airflow and can make it difficult for me to speak in complete, fluid sentences. That is precisely why I use the NATO phonetic alphabet--to communicate as clearly as possible and avoid misunderstandings. When I provided my code to the attendant, Aden, he appeared confused and repeatedly re-entered information into the computer. He then informed me that the credit card on my account had expired in April. I immediately explained that this was incorrect because my credit card does not expire until September 2029. I also opened my Tommy's app and showed him that all of my memberships displayed active status with green indicators and there were no notifications indicating an expired payment method. Despite this, he continued insisting my card had expired. To eliminate any doubt, I tapped my credit card on the payment terminal. After doing so, Aden looked at me and asked, "Are you Rick?" I replied, "No, I'm Brad," and pointed out that the name on my credit card matched my own. He then asked whether my code was "RP1979." At that point, I raised my voice--not out of anger, but out of frustration that I still was not being understood--and clearly repeated, "Bravo Papa 1975." His response was, "I thought you said 'Ravo Papa.'" I asked him, "What word is 'Ravo'?" His reply, delivered sarcastically, was, "I don't know". I have been a loyal customer for years because I believed Tommy's valued its customers. This experience has left me deeply disappointed. What should have been a 10 second interaction turned into an embarrassing encounter involving police, cancellation of my memberships, and a trespass warning--all because I asked for proof of transactions after an employee confused my account with someone else's.

I appreciate the owner responding to my review offering that I can call in to speak to the site…read moremngr. I have nothing more to add... it's all in the initial review, so I don't need to repeat the story. As far as "setting it right", I won't return for another wash/wax. My car is scratched, the service was poor, so I don't want another wash/wax, free or not. I was offered a month of free washes & didn't return once. If you want to offer a refund, as I said in the original review, I paid cash so have no proof that I paid for the $22 service. I don't know how else you can help but thank you for responding. Maybe just talk to your employees about soliciting customers for services outside of the business. It's unprofessional. And, show them how to use the apps & software cuz it took 20-30 minutes for him to figure out he'd used the wrong email address for me. The entire experience was highly irritating.

Don't ever confuse being furious with being difficult! First LIE; Shawn, Bill & Shawn Jr ALL proudly shared with me the new 30K Engine Analyzer they had & would be using to diagnose the reason for the SERVICE ENGINE SOON warning dash light coming on. Second LIE; Yes THAT SERVICE ENGINE SOON is the correct light that was on & the reason I brought my mother's car in. Shawn was aware THAT was the warning dash light that was lit & he even reset it following their unneeded service. Not a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. Third Lie; I DID NOT MOVE ANY BARREL blocking your carwash entrance & for you to accuse me of doing that is beyond ridiculous. If Shawn is such an honest guy, as you initially touted to me, he would have told you HE MOVED THAT BARREL & then told me to drive in & he'd start the carwash. It never started, not one drop of water was ever released. Shawn even apologized to me saying he was sorry he didn't realize it was not working. I was even told to come back in the Springtime for a free wash. I hope my reviews give future potential customers pause before taking their vehicle to your service center. Again with the false accusations. Any still pictures you claim to have of "a woman moving your barrel" is not me. Ask Shawn, IF he's the honest guy you say he is, he'll tell you the truth, HE MOVED THAT BARREL. YOU however are the height of an unprofessional businessman. Funny how when you texted me pleading with me to bring the car back you stated "I'm not like those other guys, I'm professional & I just want to make it right for you" HA AND by calling a dissatisfied customer a "Karen" immediately identifies you as a immature & hateful MAGA, certainly NOT ANY KIND OF PROFESSIONAL!

Not just because they have been in this area for decades, but because they have been reliable throughout the years. This most recent visit was no exception. The exterior of the vehicle looks great, and has a nice fresh-off-the-lot shine. The interior was past due for a little TLC so I went ahead and added an interior clean package. On a scale of 1 to 10, I will give this particular round a 6. While better than it was, the vacuum and dust cloths missed a number of places, and the windshield - the main reason for wanting the interior cleaned - still has some smudges. As an aside, while I can't confirm/may well be mistaken, I think that a number of the photos on the walls in the waiting area are of actual employees that I have seen working at this location. If that's the case, kudos to the company for the authenticity. I'm still giving this four stars because this location usually performs at that level. I'll re-assess next visit. Things to know: * This location is on a busy corner and shares driveway access with a couple other business - be cautious. * This is one of the very few (maybe the only remaining) Mister Car Wash in The Des Moines metro where you can pay to have your car's interior cleaned. Other locations are self-service.
