Galleria Cleaners

This place isn’t awful — I go for the location convenience. Wash & fold isn’t terribly expensive, and they do pretty well with timing. None of my stuff has come back absolutely destroyed or lost, unlike some of these horror stories in the other reviews. I’d say go for it.

Wow. I didn’t think it was possible to fold clothes this poorly… I dropped off a large load of laundry in the morning, they told me to come back the next day and it wasn’t ready. When I finally got back there and my clothes were finished, they came back bunched up and wrinkled in the bag. I will not be coming back to Galleria cleaners…

Wash and fold. It’s cheap. It’s really close to our house. But oh man, if it wasn’t so convenient, I would definitely NOT go here. They apparently wash and dry everything on super high heat, resulting in them shrinking a cotton shirt and a sweater I sent. The first time we used them, they didn’t have time to fold our laundry, so we could either wait two days to get it back (closed on Sundays), or take it unfolded for no discount. Actually though, it’s almost better to fold your clothes yourself anyway. «Folding» is a strong word to use for the shape they send me clothes back in. «Folding» would imply it was like, condensed into a form that would fit in a drawer. But they really just crease the tshirts in half and call it a day. (Who has drawers that big?!) Anyway, we’re going to use them because they’re really close and convenient, but if you’re halfway between this laundromat and ANYWHERE else… go elsewhere.

I can’t say anything about the alterations or dry cleaning, which is what I think the other bad reviews here are about, but I do wash/​dry/​fold here probably twice a month, and I’m fully satisfied with the service. My clothes always come out smelling fresh and clean, are perfectly folded in a nice little package. The prices are fairly reasonable for the neighborhood — I think it’s $ 1.10/lb. I like that I can bring in my stuff before 9:30 on a weekday and pick it up around 6 the same day. I like the nice little old lady that’s always in here. My only complaint I think is the hours, which I wish were later than 7PM, so I could pick up later.

If you hate your clothes, definitely take them here. These guys are happy to ruin them for you.

I went in to have 1″ taken off the sleeves of a sportcoat.
It took some time to explain to the woman what I wanted, and when she finally understood, she began pinning my sleeves. It looked to me like she wasn’t quite giving me an inch – I tried to explain it, but she seemed sort of oblivious. As she entered the alteration into the computer, I noted that there was an option to enter a certain number of inches by which the sleeves were to be shortened. I pointed it out to her and said «how about we just enter one inch?,» she said no, and muttered something about how she pinned the sleeve. Figuring it was close enough, I let it go.
When I got the jacket back, the sleeve length was a tiny bit longer than I wanted, but I wasn’t concerned. what bothered me was the poorly-​executed sewing. The sleeve lining was crudely folded over, and the edges of the cuff were somehwhat crooked, something I might be able to mask with a little artful pressing. In short, I won’t be going back.
