Cut drying time and groom your pets with the Metro Vac Air Force Master Blaster - Model MB-3

I will never be able to use my Flying Pig dryer again, after using this sucker once. It literally blows it out of the water. It’s powerful, effective, and gets dogs done in less than half the time I was managing before. The hose is annoyingly long, but aside from that, this dryer is my new best friend.

Dries my dogs quick. I can finish a small dog groom within an hour. But can’t figure out how to put the other attachments on.

I am a professional Dog Groomer and this is the only dryer that I will ever use! I have tried others in the past, but for the past 15 years, this is the only one that has worked amazingly well

I love this machine. The air force is similar to a Mighty Wind, which is what I used to use when I was a dog bather in a pro shop. I wish it had an extra low speed - so far it has two engines - either of which can be used separately, or use both for super blast - great. If you want to take the nozzle off to give a scared dog less noise to be afraid of, the darned hose will start to whistle like the ones we would spin around when we were kids. That's even worse on the ears, so... no. Gotta wrestle a little to get the nozzle to screw on tightly, but it stays put once you do.Bottom line is that it works great and will blow out a shedding dog as well as anything you'd find in a pro shop. Whoever wants to use this to wash their pet dog, please stay all the way away from the ears and face unless you have a seasoned groomer showing you how not to tangle the coat (for long-coated haircut dogs like shih tzu or maltese), rupture your dog's eardrums, or pop their eyes out. It's a wonderful tool, but not without its dangers just like anything else. My dryer is about 20 years old and still going strong after bathing my own beasties plus hundreds of rescue dogs. I bought one for a groomer friend of mine, and she's delighted with it.

This is a $300+ super blow dryer. You can expect the volume of air to be at that level, no doubt about that. The noise level is something of a tradeoff however. It can get very loud. I have one dog that is afraid of vacuums and this is louder so it can be difficult using this on her but my other two dogs don't care. The good thing is that it dries them so quickly and there are two settings. The lower one will of course be less air/loudness.Other things I found this useful for: clearing out the garage of leaves and dust, drying my car, blowing in my face for fun, pretending that you're a firefighter putting out imaginary fire, blow drying yourself, basically anything that a large volume of air can do, you can with this guy.Really expensive for a somewhat specialized purpose. I would recommend if you own several messy dogs that don't mind a vacuum cleaner. Sometimes I can use my vacuum on top of my lab and he doesn't mind at all. Bristles off of course.
