Black Dog Car Wash, Pittsburgh PA

The stall was clean and the machine was easy to use. The soap machine provided plenty of soap with an additional wax nozzle for finishing touches. I would highly recommend coming here to clean your vehicle!

$15.00 for their best wash, which is a whole $10.00 less than the Mr. Magic car washes that are everywhere in the south hills. I got the top tier wash package (touchless automatic), and despite a few areas of streaking on parts of the body and the glass, I was relatively impressed. The vacuum is 1.00 in quarters only, as opposed to most places now having free vacuums, and there are no monthly unlimited options. The only other downsides are the lack of convenient location (you have to leave route 88/51), and the obvious age of the car wash itself is showing. 3 STARS.

Touch less car wash does not do a decent enough job for price and when I had an issue with it breaking down in the middle of soaping my car, I had to email the contact and never heard back. Waste of money but won’t return.

This place is great! Very good price for the self serving car wash and it’s a very nice setup! Went many times while I was in Pittsburgh!

First time customer and my experience was excellent. Manager was very pleasant. Touchless car wash cleaned the car as expected.

The trash cans were full. One of the vacuums was not working properly. The car wash didn't dry my car

Ben was super helpful and super nice! It was my first time at this car wash and it was absolutely amazing I will definitely be coming back!

Came here for dog wash. Very pleased. Two individual stalls for your dawg. They keep you separated and comfy from your wet neighbor, doors are locking. Chair in the stall for added bonus - human comfort. Facilities were nicely maintained, no nastiness. There is a disinfecting spray when you start, for additional cleansing/sanitizing. My dawg is crazy and doesn't like me telling him what to do, but the washing stall steps are very accessible. Once my dawg chilled, he maneuvered up and down with ease. 10$ for 10 minutes. I don't like dealing with people, scheduling, getting to the groomers, and the associated circus work involved with getting my 65 lb gs/acd mix washed. To me, the 10$ was a reasonable price for this self-service vs the alternative. They offer shampoo, conditioner, flea shampoo, "deodorizer, " and blow dry! None of these products seemed to irritate my dawg. But I would be interested to know the brand of products used be sure to read the instructions to figure out the best sequence. Sounds like common sense, but I am not organized and didn't maximize my 10 min timer as efficiency due to not reading the sign that explained the options. Duh me. Still got a got dawg wash in, despite my own poor time management skills:) Highly recommend and will be back, with my dawg. Maybe my car, too, especially with the layer of dawg fur on the inside now.

Every time I go a bay is broken and closed OR it’s not closed and you only find out it’s broken after you spend money. Do not waste your money here.

This place was clean the manager. I think his name was been really awesome. Great conversation came out. Make sure everything was good that all the equipment worked. They had people out there. Make sure the parking lot was clean. Definitely recommend this place.

Ben was very helpful when the machine did not take my money! He coordinated for me to still have my car wash, that was much needed! The car wash turned out AMAZING! Thank you again Ben!

This car wash// Dog Wash is truly killer! The owners are actually amazing. They even sent a refund for a mistake that i made on my behalf, it was the kindest thing ever. I recommend them to anyone who lives in the south hills / south side or even further.

I had a decent experience. It’s not the best car wash I’ve been to but it does the job. I like that you can pay with credit card and that the knob doesn’t have a million option to chose from. However, pressure soap takes a minute to start dispensing soap which is a waste of my time that I paid for. The facility will benefit from updates as well.

Just used the self wash for the first time, and surely will be my last. Power wash seemed to work decently enough, and the wax is nice too. But that's about the extent of it.

First issue i have is that they said they have an air dryer which they did not. Had to towel dry my whole car which was a rather daunting task and luckily for me I had some towels on hand. If you don't mind hand drying your ENTIRE CAR then I guess that's not an issue. I recommend bringing at least 3-4 towels. I don't mind hand drying my whole car either as a detail, but not when the whole thing is absolutely soaked making the whole experience unsatisfying and annoying.

Second issue I had is that the power washer works deceivingly. Once your car dries, many soapy water spots start to show, like the soap just glued itself to your car which required another round of hand drying and detailing. I probably had to walk around my car at least 5 times finding all the spots. This might not be an issue for the general public, but for me I have very high standards on keeping my car clean and looking good.

Vacuums are as average as you can get, better to just do if at your house.

All in all this isn't the worst wash I've ever seen but definitely not good enough for my standards.
