Corbett Cleaners

No mas! Yes convenient to where I live and generally OK. I could live with the cash thing (aargh!)
Unfortunately like many of the reviews here, my shirts started coming back without buttons.
Asked Amy to replace. She agreed, but did not do the work. Don’t think she cares!
Adiós!

Amy is the best. She’s professional, accommodating and sincerely attempts to do a good job. There are occasional blimps but I’ve never experienced a local cleaner that is consistently as good, and she also delivers for us.

Amy is incredible. The service is impeccable. They are fast and efficient, alterations are always done to perfection. I can always rely on Amy to get a jacket or shirt pressed at a moments notice. They know everyone in the neighborhood and always greet you with a smile!

I’ve only used Corbett Cleaners for a short while and short it’ll be.
I asked the lady there to sew on some embroider patches onto my jacket and it looked like some novice had done it, she did it again and it looked better, but now one is coming off. I also had a really nice Oktoberfest Munich shirt with fest patches on it dry cleaned there, one of those was ripped and is now coming off. Done!

I’ve been using this cleaners for years, they’re great. They always do a great job laundering my shirts, and drycleaning my sweaters. Amy also did a great job tailoring a dress shirt, the fit is so much better now. If you’re in the neighborhood, you should be using this place.

As just about everyone has noted, Amy is very personable and remembers names easily. I think by the second visit, she called me by my name. I don’t need the plastic wrap on my clothing and so now she keeps my clothing without the plastic.
I have had great service with both dry cleaning and tailoring. Stains have come out that I never thought from previous dry cleaning experiences would come out. She has tailored exactly as we had agreed. I did have to convince her that I wanted one dress that short… «But that would be a shirt!» she teased me. Length was perfect though… I don’t like hems to be too close to the knee. I have this weird but strong belief that my knees aren’t so lovely as my thighs or calves.
Oh, and I think a pair of pants I had was misplaced or I lost the ticket. I was looking everywhere, including the gym and yoga studio I go to. She was my last stop before I was about to pay another $ 100 for those pants. When I asked her if she by chance had them, she said yes and they were ready a couple days later.
Corbett Cleaners is right around the corner from where I live though I didn’t notice it for the first few months I was living in the neighborhood. I went to a couple of other places on 18^th Street but wasn’t as happy as with Amy’s service, which is a good thing since she is much closer to my home. One less hill to walk up!
She is also much, much more affordable than the tailor I use to go to downtown. She prefers cash but does take credit card.

They write your name on your shirts with permanent marker, preventing you from wearing them untucked. I mean seriously? I wanted the shirts to be cleaned, not made dirty!!!
And they don’t accept cards for less $ 30. Very annoying

I should start by saying that I never give bad Unilocal reviews but after what happened today I would give this place 0 stars if I could. First, we have been coming here for 3 ½ years since we moved to the neighborhood. I wouldn’t say it’s the best dry cleaners I’ve ever used but Amy was always friendly and it got to where I actually looked forward to seeing her on Saturday’s for our chats. All that changed today. The last time I was in I brought her my two favorite silk shirts to be cleaned. Unfortunately they both came back with bleach spots and are ruined. I didn’t notice, however, until I went to wear them. I set them aside and planned to bring them in to show Amy when I brought our clothes in today. I know that they outsource their dry cleaning so thought she should see what had happened. However, when I brought them in she sniffed them and told me I had worn them and that the spots came from me not them. I was shocked and assured her that I had not worn them but simply tried them on then took them off when I noticed the spots. She argued with me and absolutely refused to admit that the spots had come from them and then she flat out told me I was lying. I have never received such terrible service, especially from someone that I have come to know over 3 ½ years. Needless to say I will NEVER bring any clothes back here and I would not recommend them to anyone.

This cleaner might be good for durable items like sweaters and coats, or things that don’t require too much sophistication, like basic shirts. And yes, she’s friendly and it’s cheap. But great dry cleaning? No. I took three silk shirts there, and each came back with MORE stains – the sweat outline on one red silk shirt is now permanent, for example. Plus, the shirts smell weird, which is a sign of old perc. It’s convenient, but I’ll never go back.

Amy is so friendly and always has everything clean and on time. She also delivers which is awesome when the weather is bad, you’re not feeling so hot or are just plain feeling lazy. Prices are affordable although I never ask what the charge is going to be because it’s always reasonable. She always knows my name and exactly how my husband likes his shirts. Great neighborhood dry cleaners.

I started using Corbett cleaners because they are near my house, but after two months I am furious with the service they have provided.
To start, the owner (Amy) hassles me every time I pay without cash, who uses cash these days? And then one day I noticed that she increased the pricing on me without notice. I asked if pricing had gone up and her response was that I always pay with credit card so she is adding a 10 cents to every item. Very unprofessional, at least tell me that you are doing so.
Also, I have my work shirts laundered, pressed and starched. At first the quality was decent. My shirts would come out slightly wrinkled in spots, but it wasn’t a big deal. One day I noticed that the buttons on all my white shirts were destroyed and I asked her what happened and if she could fix them. She implied that it was not the cleaners fault and that the shirts were low quality. How rude! I’ve used many other cleaners and never had this problem.
There are too many good cleaners in SF for anyone to put up with the low quality, high cost and unprofessional attitude from this establishment.

This review is only for their tailoring. I haven’t had a problem with the dry cleaning services there, but will never go back for tailoring. I brought a dress in that needed to be hemmed quite a bit. She measured it and told me she was going to make it 30 inches (I’m short). When I picked it up and brought it home, it was literally a shirt on me! I measured it myself and it measured 25 inches. How do you get that far off! On top of that, I had no cash and she said she couldn’t put $ 10 on a card. I proceeded to do what I could to get her cash, missed my bus back up the hill, for her then to say, okay I can do it but cash next time. Why’d you have to be so difficult in the first place! There are better tailors out there, I just need to find them!

I was surprised to see all of the 4 or 5 star reviews for this place. I took some shirts here on a Friday and was a little taken aback that they wouldn’t be ready until Tuesday afternoon. Whatever, I’m easy going. I didn’t need my dress shirts until Thursday anyway.
They were very nice. I was halfway to the their place when I realized I had left my pick-​up ticket at home. They found my clothes anyway. Kudos for that.
When I dropped off the shirts I didn’t inquire about the price. I’ve never been to a dry cleaner that charged more than $ 2 per shirt. I just assumed this place would be in the same ballpark. So I was a little startled that my total came to $ 28 ($ 4 per shirt).
In short, the service here was friendly. I feel kinda bad giving a negative review. Basically, I’ve experienced the same service for half the cost elsewhere. I probably won’t be returning. :(

Amy is very nice and always remembers how I like my shirts, pants, etc cleaned. The prices are very reasonable — they will take credit cards but cash is KING, of course… I don’t tend to carry a lot of cash on me and use cards for everything (Amy doesn’t really like — fees, she says) it is the one place I actually do take my checkbook.
I’ve had a couple of times where I’ve had to take items back to be re-​cleaned or have a button that was smashed (by the iron?) re-​sewn but from a convenience standpoint it’s very quick and easy — in-​and-​out in a flash. I think they do same-​day cleaning if items are dropped off early enough. I’ve considered other cleaners but keep going back to Amy and Corbett Cleaners because the service is great and it’s right in my ‘hood.

I have a dry cleaner right next door to me on Market. I also have a wash and fold place about half a block around the corner. I ignore both of these places and go straight to Amy for all my laundry and dry cleaning!
Amy is super friendly and helpful. I’ve had buttons fixed without noticing. She also knows exactly how I like my shirts pressed. My roommate now takes all his stuff there too. She knows us both by our first names.
They’ll happily pick up your items and drop them off if you request this. I’m such a fan of this place. Stop by once and you’ll be a fan too.

This place is a breath of fresh air with so many horrible dry cleaners out there. Amy is friendly and helpful and if you give her a call before 5pm, she’ll pickup or delivery your dry cleaning for you. My clothes come back nearly perfect every time and sometimes they’ll even repair a missing button.
Like most cleaners, they are a little hard on the buttons and I’ve had a few shirts come back with broken or missing buttons. But when I’ve mentioned it to Amy, she fixes them without charging anything.
I’ve sent everything from leather, to comforters, to wedding dresses here and they all come back in fantastic condition. One of the best cleaners ANYWHERE!

In a day in age where businesses are just places where you exchange cash for product/​services Corbett Cleaners stands out from the crowd. Attention to detail, service with a smile, and willing to go that extra mile– you can have it all at Corbett Cleaners.
Amy actually offered to drop off or pick up our dry cleaning when my baby was born because she knew we’d be busy. If only more things in the world were like Corbett Cleaners.

I’ve been going here for I think 18 years or so. I’ve seen their kids grow up… scary. They are so nice and do a great job. Amy is really sweet and remembers everyone. She does great alterations. Pretty fast too. I recently started bringing my laundry in too. She does a fast, great job. It is finished the same day unless she is swamped.
I highly recommend them.

Best. Cleaners. Ever. So many things to love:
— The service is amazing. Amy remembers my name and how I like my shirts cleaned. And she’s always friendly, even when I’m getting there just before closing or when I’m running late getting home before she drops my stuff off.
— They deliver. I moved from twin peaks over a year ago, yet I won’t change my cleaner, especially upon discovering Amy delivers. Why can’t all aspects of life be this easy.
— Quality is exceptional. This last round I had some serious smoke and random drink spill stain from who the hecks knows what night in Miami. I called them out, and put my trust in Amy’s magic. She made them good as new.
Exceptional place, the very reason Unilocal offers that fifth star.

I have been going to Corbett Cleaners for 4 years. Amy is like family. She knows me by name (mostly by last name, which I find endearing because my aunt does the same crazy thing).
Amy knows every garment I own. I swear this. She can tell you when I’ve gotten something new, and will tell me when it’s time to replace something old. A true fashion bellweather.
I have never. NEVER. NEVER. had a problem with any service here. I have had other dry cleaners ruin, lose, stain, burn and do god knows what else to my clothing. My garments come back from Amy better than from the store where I bought them
The prices are completely reasonable, and when I moved out of the hood, Amy and I deepend our relationship: she now picks up and drops off at my new place. What more could you ask for?
