I would judge performance for most clothes as 'adequate.' Clothes were not great - not well pressed, but okay. However, we last took my son's good quality ($950) suit to be cleaned. It had grease stains on the front. We told them about the stains and on pick up noted they were still there. They gladly took it back for further cleaning. This time the stains were removed, but the front material of the suit jacket was puckered. We were told by the salesperson at Nordstrom that this was due to pressing on too high a heat and that the problem was permanent, due to damage to the material.
Description of Work: Ruined suit jacket.

I first want to state that I was unable to locate Ms. [Member Name Removed] in our customer base. The suit may have been put under a different name? Does she have the correct cleaners? There is always risk involved when the garment comes in with a stain that has damaged the fibers. We do our best to remove the stain the customer has gotten on their garment in a professional manner. There is always risk, and we always share the risk with our customers. In this particular case, I am not aware of a problem with heat, since I cannot locate the customer. That being said, all dry cleaners use steam in the finishing of garments. The manufacturer does often times use inner facing that causes problems with finishing if not manufactured properly. I will be glad to look at the garment and/ or send it to the Dry Cleaners and Laundry Institute for them to determine what is the problem with the suit..

The owner promptly apologized and promised to deliver my order to my home that evening. Around 8:30 that evening, the order arrived at my doorstep. I feel the owners went above and beyond to correct a mistake. I am very impressed by the high level of customer service I experienced by them. They turned a bad situation (sitting in the drive-thru line with my 4-year-old for 20 minutes after a long day at work) into a positive one. It has had the effect of making me more loyal to them.
Description of Work: The owners were experiencing staffing problems on the day I was there. Customers were waiting quite a long time before being helped. When I (finally) made my way to the front of the line, I was told that my order was not ready for pick-up at the time it was promised.

We appreciate your kind words. On this particular day we were very busy and did not have the garments ready at the time promised. We do our best as small business owners to treat all of our customers how we would like to be treated. Thanks so very much for your business, we appreciate it.

They do a top notch job of cleaning and also they check to be sure the buttons are on and that the zippers are working and all mending is done. They do the work on the premises and have a one day service.
Description of Work: We take items in about twice a month which consists of suits, shirts, and slacks.
