Amazon.com Product Description Face it--washing your car is a bit of a pain. First you fill the bucket with soapy water, then you dig out the sponges, and then you scrub like crazy while getting soap and water all over your clothes. Now this may be fine on a 95-degree summer day, but not so much when the thermometer maxes out at 65. Luckily, the Auto Wash Stick makes washing your car a breeze in any weather. With a handle that extends to 4 feet and a flexible sponge head, this item easily reaches roofs, hoods, and windshields on everything from Fiats to F150s. The Auto Wash Stick holds cleaning solution in its handle, so you don't have to bring a bucket of soapy water to the driveway. Simply pull out the handle to fill the stick with soap, then push it in to dispense the solution. The Auto Wash Stick is so convenient that you can expand your washing repertoire to include boats, motor homes, siding, and patio furniture. Just don't tell your neighbors you have one.

Limited success July 29, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was under the impression, somehow, that this wash stick attached to a hose. It doesn't. You fill up the small reservoir in the handle instead. It works OK with a bucket. The mop end is sort of a skeep-skin affair. I think it would hold up reasonably well if you used it on a car, but it will fray to pieces pretty quick if you try to use it on painted wood, as I did.
Works good but has limitations April 11, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Overall, the HomeRight Auto Wash Stick works well on flat surfaces but if your car has wheel well mouldings, fender flares, spoilers, air dams, roof racks, or just about anything not flat, I find it hard to get those areas. And many places can't be gotten to no matter what. It earns a 4 star because where it can be used it works pretty good. If your car is an easy car to wash then perhaps you will really like it. Mine is a hard one to wash so when I get done, I let it dry then go back and wash the areas I missed by hand. Even with that, it's still easier and quicker than washing the whole thing with a sponge. Plus the long handle makes it easier to do the roof without stretching or reaching and the lower areas without stooping. It feels a little light duty and I worry how long it will last, but if it holds up well I would probably buy another.
This Auto Wash Stick is Great! July 15, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This Auto Wash Stick is Great! I just got a new car and couldn't reach the top to wash it but was worried about scratching the new paint. This stick is very soft, but cleans great and is long enough to reach the top of my car.
Best ever! June 2, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the greatest invention since sliced bread! I don't know how I ever lived without this thing. I have tried other similar items like a chenille wash stick from walmart/target(junk) that are cheap and cheezy, but none compare to this item. This has performed great for years (I recently ordered replacement mitts from the homeright website) and washes the car like no other gadget. The long handle prevents the backache that comes from using a hand sponge and it fills with soapy water which you can squeeze out as you are washing so you don't have to keep dipping into your bucket. The fat handle is ergonomic for the hands;it is easy to hold/grip and feels good unlike the skinny metal poles of the cheap ones. The mitt can be removed and washed and the original one lasted me years before I ordered a replacement. Fantastic! I would recommend this to everyone, I hope they never stop making it!!!
