They're not bad, seem durable. Pretty good quality (its rubber...) and gives a decent boost in pressure. But it's only so good with so much pressure

Yeah my neighbors think im crazy but it's actually pretty common with detailers. It gets the water out of tight cracks and makes it so you can dry the car with just one towel. Does a really really good job. Specially on windows, it pretty much makes it so you dont have streaks on the outside when drying

You can do it outside as well though, as long as your not stupid and blowing the ground next to your car you should be good.
