this is the best dry cleaners I've ever used seriously. I had a terrible water break and nine of my suits became saturated. I immediately brought them in. They took complete control and restored everything to perfection. I can't say enough good about them. They are friendly, professional, and I really appreciate their hard work.

I've not experienced better service or customer communication in larger markets such as LA or NYC. Kai @ 3rd Generation helped me out of a serious jam - I arrive in Chico to discover that my suit for a wedding was trashed. It was a Saturday. I called every dry cleaner I could find in Chico and none of them would press my suit. 3rd Generation got it done with time to spare. And it looked fantastic. Thanks Kai. read more

Genuinely cares about customers. Friendly attitude and great at doing what they say they will, when they say they will do it. Prices are fair and quality of the work is good. I think we found our dry cleaners! read more

Super friendly people always willing to help with anything that you need very quick turnaround time usually have everything back within two days. Very nice place. read more

This place always delivers fast and quality service. Every time I need something in a rush they do their very best to accommodate me. The quality of their service is amazing and I have saved so much time using their services. They give discounts to first responders and this is the place to go if you need weekly service for your uniforms. I always feel very welcome when I come here. read more

I went into 3rd Generations with a list of alterations I needed for a suit I bought online. I was nervous of the cost and if it would come out as I expected, I was very relieved of the quality work I received! He did have many questions on why I wanted my suit more tight, but he also gave feedback and suggestions on why some alterations I wanted would not work for me if I tried sitting down or lifting my arms. He was very polite and professional! I definitely recommend this business :) read more

Professional, quality of the work performed was good and at a good cost. The owner was kind, talkative and informative. Thanks again

Dropped off 2 shirts to be hemmed in the sleeves 1" each. Took them 2 weeks and they had the audacity to charge me $30.00. Never again will I go back to this place. Beware! read more

Very friendly and helpful customer service. Great return time. My clothes were immaculate! This is where I will be bringing all my clothes.

Like did a nice job cleaning my dress for a great price. I got an automated text message when my item was ready to pick up, which was very helpful. read more

I've waited months to write this review to cool off. I'll just keep it short and say that I took in my wedding dress to be cleaned - it was a second-hand dress that I was planning to wear for my upcoming wedding in early June. The man up front is the rudest man I've ever met. I paid extra for rush cleaning before my wedding, they didn't even touch my dress til I tried to pick it up. I sprayed the dress with perfume before taking it to make sure they actually cleaned it. Not only did they not actually clean it, they literally spilled coffee on the David's Bridal dress bag AND it soaked into my dress. Read on for details... The man that assisted me at the front was the most rude, disaster of a "man" I've ever met. Our entire interaction he was talking trash about his poor wife who was sweating in the back working her butt off while he ate a sandwich and dropped lunch meat from his mouth as he spoke to guests up front. He appeared annoyed that customers were interrupting his ass-sitting experience and made frequent jokes to both me and other women about inappropriate things I'll not repeat here. When I dropped of my dress, I sprayed it with perfume to be sure they actually cleaned it. If they did clean it, it shouldn't smell strongly of the ONE spray of perfume I put on it. Lo and behold, when I went to retrieve my dress a week later, it wasn't cleaned. I asked what happened and they said "oh, yea! That is clean!" It was in the same spot on the rack I left it when I dropped off. The same little bow I tied inside the bag was tied and the perfume was CLEARLY on the dress still. I made those points and they said, we'll fix it. Come back later. I paid extra for a rush cleaning as I had a week until my wedding. Coming back was NOT an option and what a waste of "rush" fees. I explained the situation and they said "give us 15 minutes, we fix for you." I went to get lunch, gave them ample time (over an hour) and returned. Upon my return, the dress was moved one rack over. The bow was still tied (it had to be untied to remove it from the bag). The dress still smelled strongly of perfume and what was even worse... The entire front of the bag had a long, wet, dripping coffee stain from a spilled Starbucks latte on the floor next to my dress/bag. When I asked, horrified, what the hell happened. The wife said, "oh! Nothing! It cleaned for you. We put in wrong bag." Meanwhile, the crotchety old man said, "someone must have spilled on it." The poor wife was hushing him trying to quiet his noise. As the wife scrambled to find some other poor girl's David's Bridal dress bag and stuff my (unwashed) dress into the bag, I cried. My dress wasn't washed and the man said I couldn't leave without paying when I asked for a refund. I took my dress, crying, and vowed to share the story when my head cleared from all the stress. As I sit, literally two months later, to recount the experience, I am no less distraught. NEVER take your clothing here. The only time I have EVER used a dry-cleaner, I had the most important garment I own trashed. I'm crushed. Thankfully, the wedding was outdoors in bright sunlight and the stain was on the train of the dress... you know... since they never even untied the bow that kept it hooked to the bag. read more

If I could give 0 Stars I would. My daughter went to pick up our order and was berated about the large amount of items and how stupid it was to bring a comforter and blanket to be cleaned in the summer "oh you're really going to use this now." This was all said by a middle aged man who seemed to be in charge. When my husband entered to help bring everything to the car nothing was said to him, surprisingly. In addition the sweaters we had sent in were hung on hangers and have indents in the shoulders now and a linen dress is discolored. Absolutely do not recommend read more

Had them dry clean bedspread--was done quickly , and very personable , and bedspread was given to me in a zippered plastic bag with handle (very convenient). read more

Was staying at an AirBnb for a month in Chico for work and there was no washer and dryer. Used to use Coin op laundromat for years, but have ruined a bunch of clothes from weird substances in the dryers. I began doing fluff and fold a while back when I'm away from home and that problem has since corrected itself. Visited here last week and brought in 20 lbs of clothes and their price is $2 per lb. My clothes were ready in less than 24 hours, everything was folded nice and tight, clothes smelled good, and didn't see any new stains or issues. Family business, reasonably priced, quick turn around, and they do a good job. Can see why they have lasted 3 generations! read more

Beware of getting alterations done at this establishment, I had to go to another similar business to correct the mistakes they made. Disgusted!! read more

Friendly, flawless alterations and dry cleaning of everything I bring into their store. I almost feel like family. Always very busy, but I get my dry cleaning on time and in excellent condition. Would not consider any other dry cleaner! read more

I am beyond thrilled with the service I received at 3rd generation cleaners. I purchased three beautiful dresses and to my horror, I found they were in a home filled with cats and indoor smokers. They smelled so disgusting and I tried washing them, soaking in baking soda and nothing worked. I called 3rd generation to see if this is something they could handle. I just got my dresses back and the smell is gone! They have an ozone process they used to remove the smell. They were incredibly mindful with the way they hung the items on the hangers to ensure there was no damage to the fabric. I also took in a silk robe and alpaca sweater with a stain. The stain is gone! My robe went in all crumpled up and icky and it came back perfectly clean and pressed. The customer service is impeccable and they have a really convenient app and text service that lets you know when your clothes are ready. Their pricing was shockingly affordable. I highly recommend them! read more

Best cleaners EVER! Excellent customer service and quality cleaning. Always easy to trust Van when she is handling special event garments. Thank you! read more

They were able to get me in last min, done within 30 mins and were so super sweet will 100% recommend them and will be going back in the future!! read more

Very friendly owners...both Van and Stu. Happy to bring my dry cleanable and alterations to them instead of the last god- for- saken place on Walnut/ Pillsbury...don't even go there read more

Van and Stu are so kind and personal! Van has hemmed dozens of pants for me over the past 20 years. Van has fixed dog beds, foreign clothing/bags, my wedding dress and one time she took apart my entire white lined wool coat and put it back together two sizes smaller -- perfectly. The dry cleaning experience is top notch and quick. The hours are perfect. None of the other employees have ever been rude to me. I highly recommend 3rd Generation Cleaners. There is plenty of parking too. read more

Van is an amazing tailor. I've used her for many years. Won't go anywhere else for alterations.

Fast, friendly service at reasonable prices. Very happy with the quality of their work. I'll be a repeat customer. read more

Very friendly and helpful. I like that they do alterations and sew on patches and such. It's a little pricey, but it helps ease my load. You do need to check to make sure all of the patches are sewn on, but if they miss one they fix it right away and are so kind about it. read more

Stu and Van are horrible people. I got hired because i was supposed to do sewing but Van never taught me anything and had me pressing. They scam calworks out of money by making them pay for the first six months of their workers paycheck and pretend to be nice then start insulting us later so we'll end up wanting to quit and they wont have to pay unemployment and can get another worker sent from calworks every summer i hear stu joke about wanting to put us girls in bikinis to get more customers there also not as environmentally friendly as they claim if they got sued by another county for lying about there tanks contaminating the water https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/sanfranciscobay/board_info/agendas/2017/September/FormerGlovatoriumFacility/ACL_Complaint_No.%20R2-2017-1022_ADA.pdf read more

We have been taking our clothing here for years & highly recommend 3rd Generation. Quality cleaning & top notch alterations w/ pleasant personal service. read more

I have lived in Chico over 40 years, and this is the best dry cleaners that I have ever used! Clothes are always cleaned and pressed perfectly. Alterations, even complicated one, fit perfectly. read more

Had them clean my blazer but it came back dirty and stinky. Like they didn't even clean it. Very disappointing since I'll have to take it elsewhere to get cleaned again read more

Took 60 uniforms in (like last year when they did a great job) and got them back 4 weeks later in disarray - pants not matched up with top or uniform hanger. Once I started to inspect them I noticed all kinds of sweat stains. Stu (owner) admitted to washing them even though they say on each uniform part "PROFESSIONAL DRY CLEAN ONLY." I took them back to be done correctly but the damage was done. Piping is starting to fray and uniforms are sagging. What's worst is we got no apology or refund. The place is a mess and they obviously have too much going on. Looking for a new place to do business with. read more

These cleaners are perfect!!!!!! I live 2 towns away and happily drive to use them. Very nice counter people, good customer service, prompt service and they clean and press my clothes beautifully. I'm very happy with the prices and quality of dry cleaned clothing. A quick turn around as well. read more

I really love Third Gen Cleaners! I like to get my clothing altered, and they are fast and inexpensive! The seamstress seems to be very experienced. She might be the owner - not sure. Definitely check them out. read more

Best dry cleaner ever! Quick, reliable, polite, and reasonably priced. Would definitely use again and recommend!

Did an okay job with decent customer service for a while, but then lost one of my shirts and didn't even offer to do the dry cleaning for free when they did, though they did pay for a new shirt. The owner guy was also rude to me about the whole thing on top of it. Going to go somewhere else. read more

This place was able to give us recommendations about the best cleaning process for our weighted blanket. The price was reasonable, and they even washed my giant stuffed teddy bear, who has been around a number of years, and he survived, looks better than ever. read more

Wow..needed to get a pair of pants dry cleaned at the last minute on Sat. They dry cleaned them in a few hours. They were advertising 1 hour alterations, so my husband took out some jeans he had in the car and had them hemmed. They were fast , friendly and did a really nice job. read more

Great dry cleaners, I have brought in shirts, suits, blankets, and my fiancé's clothes as well. Always cleaned well and never an item lost

Amazing service at the best price around. I'm a local band teacher who submitted 57 uniforms that were cleaned better than ever before at a better price then we ever had! I've been at this for 24 years. They obviously have a lot of business but they are like InNOut - they are still faster than everybody else even with all the business they have. Few do this business well. The folks here do it well and with a smile. read more

Took in a bunch of garment for mending, hemming, etc. All came out exactly as I needed them and well done. Dry cleaning was beautifully done too, and with a pleated, embroidered skirt that's tough to clean. read more

Dropped off a nice suit and two shirts here for dry cleaning and was quite impressed with the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff, as well as the flawless job on the pressing/cleaning. Was expecting the price to be discussed when I dropped off the items ... a little pricier than I anticipated but still fair. Fix that and it's an easy 5-stars. read more

Experience counts and they have it! They got Jagermeister stains out of my chiffon and silk white dress from a holiday party two years ago, just amazing. I was so happy that I brought in a bunch of expensive pants, wool jackets and dresses that just needed a hem or had a rip, needed a stitch or had some stain....they fixed and cleaned them all! The prices were really good and service was personal. Next time I see a designer blouse on sale because it has a small hole or nice pants that don't quite fit, I'm buying them and bringing them here to fix them up good as new again. Customer for life! read more
