Automatic dog wash???

I can't believe it, a pet store in my area just got an automatic dog wash machine. I have not been to the store yet to see it but I did see a pic of it with an article in their advertisement.
I looked on the web & couldn't find much info on it, this is all I could come up:

From the picture I saw it seems to me that it would be more stressful on the pet but I guess I can't judge a book by it's cover can I? lol

Hopefully within the next couple weeks I can get out there to look at it and possibly try it. I'll be sure to take my camera with me.

Has anyone heard of these before?

This is a new one on me! Our pet store put in a self-service dog wash, which is really great- so much easier than trying to keep mine standing still long enough to suds & rinse, plus the air dryer is great for getting out loose undercoat! We have used the "hydro-wash", which i had some doubts about, but it seems to work well & the dogs don't freak out, so, who knows? HeeHee- be sure to bring enough quarters along!

oh my. they have now taken all the responsability out of dog ownership...automatic feeder/waterer, automatic toy despinser, self cleaning brushes, etc and now this...no thank you! i prefer to do everything myself. i like bonding with my dogs.
