41st Avenue Wash & Dry

If you don’t want to put up with stuck up attitudes and ruined clothes don’t come here. Just had my comforter ruined by wax that was stuck in their commercial dryer and the girl working here just argued with me that there was an out of service sign on the dryer when there clearly wasn’t. She literally just stood there and watched me use it knowing that it would ruin my stuff. Nice kid. Thanks a lot. I am never wasting my money on this filthy place again

I like this laundromat… however, it is expensive and often there are SMOKERS just outside the doors. I’ve tried out other places and that’s when I realized the cost difference. There are a TON of machines… which is different than most places. In a pinch I will go back.

This place has gone down hill like a landslide. Used to be an occasional malfunction. Now every other time I use this place I get a broken machine. It happens too often. Sometimes people don’t tag them. Too often they break on you. If it is a washer you have to wait for the complete cycle to run before you can open the door then after switching machines you have to go through the whole cycle again and you are out the money until they reimburse you (IF they reimburse you). They had been very good about reimbursing you when a machine broke. You filled out a form and they would send it in the mail within a week-​week and a half. Have not heard anything after filling out the last two forms. It has been weeks. A couple of times the machine never filled with water so my clothes twirled around in a dry mach with liquid soap. Had to wait and do it all over again. Other times you insert money then it freezes up and does not eject what you have already inserted. Or a dryer never heats up, you think you have dry clothes but you have wasted 45 – 60 minutes. Make sure you have extra time and money. I have unexpectedly spent twice as much of both. If you plan to do your laundry later at night be prepared for malfunctions. You could end up with no time to dry if a wash has to be done over. Every week more and more homeless are here. The word must be spreading through all the encampments. Or you get people taking up 6+ machines at a time. The last time I was there a couple of street people (women) were fighting. The place is filthy. Trash cans inside and out are always over flowing. There is dirt, lint clumps and trash all over the floor. Tops of machines have soap, garbage or discarded clothes. It used to be maintained. The attraction had been the late hours, large capacity machines, quantity of machines and a restroom. Now it is crowded from open to close, the people are increasingly scummier, the machines increasingly unreliable and the owner increasingly non-​responsive.

Super expensive & the dryer ruined my jacket :(
