I've heard good reviews about this place, so I decided to stop by and drop off some dry cleaning at their Pearland location in the Kroger shopping complex. I was about to head off to New York in a few days, and came in and asked when I would be able to get my dry cleaning back if I were to drop them off. They told me they would arrive by the day before I left so I decided to drop off my clothes to them. When I came back on the designated day in the afternoon (around 3:30 PM), they told me I had to wait until 5:30 PM, so I went nearby to the Drink Station and chilled until 5:30 PM. When I came back to the dry cleaners again, they told me that my dry cleaning wasn't ready because of my pieces wasn't pressed yet and that if I wanted to pick up my clothes, I would have to drive all the way to their main building next to Dobie High School.
Three things I got annoyed at:
1) I specifically asked if my dry cleaning would be ready in time because of my flight and the lady told me it would. She provided me false information because it was not ready. If I had known it would not be ready, I would've just done my dry cleaning in New York (originally I wasn't going to go dry clean here because my clothes weren't too dirty but since the prices here were so cheap compared to NY I decided to go ahead and dry clean them in Pearland).
2) The lady told me to wait an extra 2 hours and so I did, only for me to come back and find out my dry cleaning wasn't there. She wasted my time and had I known it would not be in the Kroger location earlier, I would've just driven to the main building much earlier because at 5:30 PM, it was raining and pouring like crazy outside.
3) The main location was 20 minutes away (it took 30 minutes because of the huge rainstorm that was happening at the time), and I had to pick it up myself due to lack of communication from the management. When I finally got there, all I got was store credit from only one of the dry cleaning items out of the 5 pieces I dropped off, when I felt as if I shouldn't have had to pay for the dry cleaning at all because I had to go drive all the way there when I was told it would be ready by this day, and it was not (plus I wasted 2 additional hours waiting).
Plus, when I finally did pick up my dry cleaning at the Dobie High School location, I noticed white powder residue on one of my clothing items. I also found out that the reason my items weren't delivered on time was because one of my clothing items was split colored and they had to be more careful on the dry cleaning, so they delayed my whole dry cleaning. Had the lady told me about the potential time delay with this dress to begin with, I wouldn't have dry cleaned it but there was a lack of communication from her to me.
This place is truly a hit or miss. They dry cleaned my brother's suit and it was very well done but then my experience was less than ideal due to the lack of communication evident between the main office and the satellite locations and the unfinished job they did with one of my dresses. They do offer really cheap prices ($5.99 to dry clean a two piece suit), so I might go here again in the future and update my review if they do a better job. However, I am very disappointed with my first time experience with them for the stress they caused me. read more
