you're going to get a bunch of opinions!

I'm a PDQ owner and have a LW360, absolutely love it. Easy to work on, cleans extremely well, very flexible with it's programming. I'd buy another in a heartbeat. I can't speak to the razor, never owned or operated one.

A WashWorld Razor 2016 is built like "Fort Knoxx". I have a PDQ laser 4000 and help my buddy with his and other operators in my area. I went to the show in Nashville and WashWorld looks like a Tank they have redesigned them even more this year which is not updated on there website yet. I wish i knew how to upload pictures on here i would of it at the show. Distributor support may very in your area the PDQ guy might be better customer service that means alot someone who will answer the phone at 9:30pm on a snow weekend and give you support,parts whatever. But if your talking just the machine no BS bare Bones its washworld from the pumpstand to the rails to the bridge. It made a 360 look like a Toy siting on the showroom floor and i honestly was disappointed myself with all the capital and Dover behind PDQ i would have thought different. The PDQ pumpstand on the 360 with all the solenoids slanted at a 45 degree angle and a general pump 3 inches from the floor with so much stuff in-front of it looks like it would be a pain to work on looks like they just throwed it together kinda junky. I still like both of them myself the top two in touchless for sure by far. Lets see how many guys start bashing me. lol good luck. What kind of machine do you have now?

My two cents. Both pieces look a lot alike, and wash a lot alike. In the end it really comes down to your distributor. Both machines are well built and engineered.

I have tryed attaching pictures of pump stands the PDQ is the one that's slanted solinods and well you can see which ones WashWorld with the big cat 3535 up in it.

Thanks for your response I have two wash locations one has 2 laser 4000 that have been very reliable but as all things they are now starting to nickel and dime me to death the other location has two Mark Vll which has seen there time two you are right about PDQ service they have been great again thanks for your opinion

Buy two mini-tunnels instead and make twice the money or more.

 

[tdlconceptsllc]

And be In debt twice as long you better wash 3-4x the cars to justify that

Distributor, distributor, distributor. Do your research on your local WW and PDQ distributors before you make a decision. The disadvantage of PDQ is you're committed to your local distributor.

^This. I will add though that washworlds customer service is amazing. Also sometimes with pdq, your distributor is ALSO at the mercy of pdq. It can make for a lot of frustration between the 3 parties.

I agree with the distributor. Washworld is always easy to get a hold of and get answers from. PDQ not so much.

Look at how few posts on this site refer to technical problems with the Wash World Razor compared to Lasers. I have had my WW Razor for a little over two years and have had very few issues. Phone support from WW techs is excellent.

Hi, which system did you go with and are you satisfied? Would you choose them again?
I'm looking to buy 2-4 machines and I'm facing the same predicament.

My choice was easily the Washworld Razor. A big factor was that a friend of mine operates 4 of them and has enough spare time to GO HIKING REGULARLY!!

That sold me.
