Hands-down, this is the best smog check experience I've ever gotten, this place rocks!! I sent out a yelp job request to multiple auto shops, and this one replied so fast. I then called in the morning to see if I could get a same-day walk-in smog check up for my car. Kevin was super responsive, and the price was extremely reasonable, which solidified my decision. I ended up only able to go right before closing, but they kindly accommodated me. Everyone was super friendly and courteous, and they even offered me a cold bottle of water which I really appreciated on such a hot day. Kevin's smog check took less than 10 minutes and I was out the door, with my car out of the garage and ready to go. Such a pro! Such an efficient, professional, great experience. So fast, it saved my butt for my last day to renew my registration before a late fee got charged. I can't believe I'm saying this, but actually I'm looking forward to when I can get my smog check next with these folks instead of usually dreading it every year LOL read more

It doesn't get any easier than this... Not even ten minutes and I was out the door. Highly efficient! read more

Great place for a smog check. Super efficient and friendly service!! Would recommend 100%!!

I have been going to H-1 for years now for every car I've owned. Fast (and I mean fast). I never feel out of place like I usually do as a female. So quick and super efficient. Oh and so reasonable! read more

I read the reviews & called a few hours before I wanted to come in. Kevin said no problem, see you soon. My smog check was fast, easy & reasonably priced. My only piece of advice is to bring cash for a slightly cheaper cash price, as credit card or debit has a slightly higher price. Even so, prices are very reasonable! I will go back again for sure! read more

We called 30 minutes before it closed and the owner told us to come and not to worry! We arrived for a smog check and he was done checking everything in perfect timing. It was great quality service! We really enjoyed our time here. The service and quick and precise. We will definitely come again for our next smog check. read more

They were professional & very efficient. I just pulled up, they took me in right away and I was in and out within 10-15 minutes. Highly recommend this place! read more

This is my go-to spot for smog checks. I just brought in two of my cars today. Kevin is honest, straightforward, and fair. He has a great eye for detail - he once found a rag left in the engine bay and another time noticed a nail near my seat and offered to take care of it. He always works quickly, and I've been coming here for about five years now. Couldn't recommend him more. read more

They are so efficient I called and told them I was coming and I even got to sit in my car. It only took a few minutes. I was in and out quickly and the price was right. read more

Got my smog check done here and the staff was incredibly kind! I highly recommend this spot, especially for women or younger people, because they're honest, trustworthy, and provide excellent service. read more

I was the last one in for a smog check on my 2017 Prius Christmas Eve. I had called first. The price was the best I could find ($34.99 + $10 certificate). Print the coupon from the website. The tech was very friendly and efficient. I will use this place next time I get the dreaded box checked in my renewal. I was a little confused with the directions. The entry faces PCH. It is on the southwest corner. There was no obvious sign that I noticed. You will see garages facing PCH. H-1 is the one furthest inside which would be the one furthest south, if I got all that right. I believe it only said smog check station but not H-1. That is the correct place!! read more

Few years later and another smog, super fast in and out under 10 minutes for $40 on a 2013 toyota prius c. I shall return read more
