I hope I'm reviewing the right place because it deserves a great rating.
I wasn't familiar with Dexter machines. I'm so used to the complicated nickle and dime you and over charge you for everything speed Queen machines.
So the simplicity of the these new Dexter machines went completely over my head. The attendant there showed me the controls. The only downside is that you have to remember to set the water temperature before you fully put your quarters in. Otherwise I have no other complaint about the machines. They are fantastic and I like them better than speed queen. Maybe it's how this place maintains their machines, but there was zero musty mildew dirty diaper smell at all. And my clothes came out well.
I got there and unloaded several big loads just before the last wash should have been put in and at 830pm I was still feeding the washers quarters and soap. My 7 yr old was helping and quarters got stuck in one of the washers and the lady came and helped get them unstuck. She was concerned that I hadn't filled the washers with enough clothes and suggested pulling out a load to completely fill another. And I did. It worked out great. I was just concerned about overfilling and trying to hurry up because I knew they closed at 10pm.
At 9pm I was still switching loads and could see I was running past 10 at this point.
So the lady finished her closing routine and while I was frantically going through a dryer trying to half ass fold and shove back into a bag, she was kind and calm and patient and offered big clean bags to put them in and offered her help in folding and putting them in bags. She even put some clothes back in the dryer when they were still damp and even helped me out to my truck. I just had quarters on me and I tried to give her at least something for all her help, but she didn't take it. She just wanted to help.
This place is clean. The washers are new and simple to use, don't hit you with surprise charges and most of them work great and don't smell. The dryers work well. They have vending machines - one for snacks another for beverages and another for laundry essentials. And a quarter machine if you need quarters. And customer service as mentioned is top notch- attentive and helpful. What more do you need.
I'm not a fan of the laundry cards, so I'm glad they don't have that here. But I know a lot of people are. You can make an argument either way. But for me, it's one less card I have to worry about losing, expiring, or not fully using.
You have to purchase them. And if lost you have to buy it again. And lose any money left on the one you lost. And any rewards you may have gotten. Obviously I'm a little jaded and bitter about my experience. But really I just don't like to waste money like that and time when I could have just used quarters and not given a second thought. So again, I'm glad they don't do that. I'll definitely be back again. And earlier this time... read more
