It's worth spending your $$ , time and effort to clean your own car with a brush in hand and a pressure washer. It's very satisfying! End result of washing your car by hand is always a cleaner car.This facility is clean & well maintained .

Too far away to be the best, but sometimes better than nothing

Very disappointed. I wasn’t looking for a self-wash when I navigated to it. Still stayed for a wash. I did this slowly and carefully… 2 full cycles and close up with the nozzle and after I got on the road I realized there was a perfect dusty haze all over the car. I’ve used these many times over the years and this one was the least effective. Paid for the equivalent of 2 washes and had to dirty 2 big towels when I got home before I could leave.

Been using coin-op car washes for years. Even fantasize about owning one someday. Brown Bear is the first coin-op car wash chain that I have been to and hopefully the last.Issues:1) The equipment is old and dirty. The brushes are obviously old and more prone to scratch your car*.2) Overpriced/Limited Options. Of the 8 available options in the stalls only 5 are occupied*. They are limited to Low Pressure Pre-soak, Foaming Brush, Warm High Pressure Soap, High Pressure Rinse and something called "EnviroPlate Protectant" which seems to be a low quality wax*. No tire cleaner. No engine cleaner. No conditioner.They have certainly spent a consider ammout of the branding* but maybe it would be better to upgrade the equipment.Thier website states that "automakers recommend against hand washing" and the reasons listed are not only the same reasons YOU SHOULD NOT USE THE BRUSH. Additionally the paragraph is misleading at best and outright untrue at worst.I am not a huge fans of reviews but for this place I took the time and energy to go to the wash and make sure my info is accurate.TL;DR? As far as car washing is concerned Brown Bear Car Wash is subpar in most every way. Where they do an exceptional job is branding. I know the name Brown Bear. It is familiar. I know how it looks and now know the level of quality it is capable of. There is a MUCH better car was on Bothell Everett south of 164th. Go there. Or even better do it at home.UPDATE: Less than 5 minutes after I posted this review Brown Bear responded saying that If i"If there are specific things with which you are unsatisfied please email us..." Why should I email you when you "obviously" read my review? It see you put as much effort into responses as you do into maintenance of your car washes. No I will not be emailing you. Nor will I be going to any of your car washes as I value my car, my money and my time. Good day to you.Edited to add:Got 5 bonus points for updating my review. Although I've not changed a thing, consider this an update.

Easy to access, good price on self service car wash. Takes card at each stall and has plenty of vacuum out stalls too.

Well lit self-serve car wash. Clean and with good equipment in working order with coin operation or card readers. This site has Vaccums but no carpet/upholstery shampooer. Also has supplies vending for misc. car wash items.

If I could mark -5 stars I would The way I was talked to by an employee at brown bear was absolutely appalling. I'm shocked. went to clean my car after it was stolen and trashed put money on my brown bear card then an employee came over to the vacuums and emptying the garage that was empty then told me I was in his way I'm a paying customer he could have waited to take out the empty trast

I'm glad machines were able to process credit cards. Didn't have to go looking for a place to withdraw money and count out single dollar bills.
