I bought this one http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/...rrivals&page=1 before Adam's came out. It's the same thing (except I think this one is made in China) at half the price. I know it is made in China, but it works for me. I'm a 17 year old kid. I don't have the money to buy American made stuff all the time no matter how much I'd rather have American over foreign. It does the exact same thing as far as I know, and I got this foam gun about 2 months before Adam's brought theirs out so please don't criticize me because it's not American. And by the way, Griot's is still an American company. They produce a lot of their stuff here in Indiana.

Yep. I bought the one in that link for $30 and it works wonders. It has all the same attachments as the one from Adam's, so I'm happy with it. It is the cheapest one that I found that actually works, and when I say it works, it works good lol. I didn't have to pay shipping though. There is a Griot's dealership close to me.

... did anyone notice that the type and shape of the gun and reservoir is exactly the same between the one listed @ Adam's and the one listed at Griot's, outside of the logo on the reservoir? .... I see no proof that the one from Griot's is made in China....

Yes you can use any car soap in it. I would not suggest using dawn or any dish detergent in it though

The new adam's gun is awesome! Adam's being a small company devoted to American made products makes very little money on the sale of the foam gun by itself because the gun is made in the US the overhead is much higher than the chinese model.

I will say that after using the Adam's gun, my old pinnacle gun has been demoted to dawn washes only.
