I did call the local dealer and I told them I can buy it online for as low as $152.00 but if he would take $185.00 I would be right over. He said: Well then go do that then.
Then just hung up.

That's funny.

Yup, the one I have is the Metro AirForce Blaster and got it from a dog groomer. They work great though. Paid $140, but that was 2 years ago. Cheapest I've seen them online is around $160.

I bought the same unit but with a different decal several years ago that is used for dog grooming. It was a heated 4 hp unit that does a great job and the best part was I got it for about $110.

I have a Cycledry and it work real well and doesn't cost anywhere near $239. 4HP is an awful lot, that's like swatting fly's with a sledge hammer.

I saw those expensive things and decided I would just use my electric air pump that I use to fill up my air mattress, also a dust buster does well too, maybe even try a shop vac they all can be bought way cheaper and can be set to blow instead of suck. just don't use them to suck up dirt first.

AirShammy. Just over a hundred bucks and works like a charm. The air is slightly warmed and the supplied hose has a soft rubber end and is plenty long.
