    Screenshot of my exchange with the owner. The last text is ridiculous.

    I've never written a Yelp review before, but I have had quite a negative experience with Laundry 23 recently. I had been using them on and off for their premium "well-heeled" wash and fold service for the past year or so. This tier is supposed to follow washing instructions on each article and handled with care is what they claim. Most of the time, I had no problems with them, and when I did have issues, I chalked them up to minor miscommunication mishaps since the owner seemed to be a non-native English speaker. I have a soft spot for small business owners. My past issues are consistent with some of the negative reviews already posted (e.g. store decided to dry clean instead of wash & fold and charging me extra). This time, however, the issue is that I sent out my laundry that included a machine-washable white couch cover and that couch cover came back to me with massive black stains. I contacted Laundry23 and requested that they fix the stains. They did pick it back up and the owner told me he washed it five times and sent it back. I was traveling, so I checked the cover a few days later upon returning. The stains (that THEY caused) were still too visible to ignore, which is what prompted my text in the screenshot. The owner's responses are highly unprofessional, unapologetic, and aggressive as you can see in the picture. I'm not a business owner, but the first thing I would do if one of my staff ruined a customer's item would be to apologize and to attempt rectifying the damage (or compensating for the damage). Instead, the owner tells me to wash it myself. He also refused to provide a refund. Basically, most of the time, you won't have a problem but when you do... the owner is beyond rude and unprofessional. Very unpleasant to deal with and quite unreasonable. Mistakes happen, but at least take own up to it as a business owner. That's just basic courtesy.

    You can see some of the clever starts left

    Use it to get your regular laundry cleaned and folder AVOID at all cost any dry cleaning services for delicate and/or costly clothes. They destroyed a $150 t shirt and offered to pay me back only the $9 service fee, they were rude and told me to go to complaint to the company that makes the shirts because it was not their fault. If you have been through this would recommend file a complaint at https://portal.311.nyc.gov/

    DO NOT GO HERE. These people are frauds. I had been using laundry project consistently twice a month for 4 months until they took most of my wash & fold order, dry cleaned it (without my permission or my acknowledgement), and charged me $180.00. When I showed them that I did not order dry cleaning and only ordered wash & fold, they wouldn't listen or be reasonable. Instead the owner YELLED at me, took my clothes away from me, and told me, "you either pay 180.00 or you don't get your clothes." I once again showed proof of my order (screen shot below) and asked for him to show me where they got a dry cleaning order, and he couldn't show me any evidence or even properly explain why they dry cleaned half of my clothes that definitely did not need dry cleaned.... Unfortunately, I needed my clothes that day so I had to pay the money, but now I am taking them to court for theft and mis charging me. On top of everything, they fucking dry cleaned my 10 year old Ohio state T-shirt (picture below) AND the dry cleaned clothes STILL STINK AND HAVE STAINS ON THEM ....if this doesn't say this place is a farce...idk what will.

    A little pricey but very nice, fast, and quality laundering. I have used them a couple times and am happy with the service.

    Josh and Champion Cleaners deserve all the applause for excellent service. I don't hand out stars…read morein my reviews, but when quality service is rendered, I do not mind and gladly rate Champion Cleaners so very highly for doing all the little and big things right. I don't know if anyone is paying attention, but quality and quality service is lacking these days. It's easier and often of less cost in the short run to take short cuts at the expense of customer loyalty and sense of receiving the best of treatment from a person and business you may rarely see in this age of pickup and delivery. If you're reading this all the way through, good on you and better for you. I can confidently state Champion Cleaners is a service you can count on to pickup and deliver as if you know Josh and his business as a brick and mortar. Understand what that means in this day and age. Understand you will be a loyal customer of Champion Cleaners without question. How often can one state that these days...? Let me give you my most recent example. I have a white Guayabera all linen long sleeve shirt with the vertical pleats on the front, the kind you can wear to church, to weddings, to fine dining, and on important dates. Now then let that shirt be unknowingly stained in multiple places on each sleeve by a dark and tarry mushroom supplement you take. You think, "this shirt is ruined on the first wear." Not so quick with Josh and Champion Cleaners. I texted Josh and told him of the challenge to clean this shirt. He replied, "we'll do our best." Their best at Champion Cleaners was well up to the job and I texted Josh that perhaps he heard the applause coming from my direction in the still of the early morning in the City. Josh and Champion Cleaners can save you money and save your garments. Five stars!

    We just moved to the city and are so grateful to have found Josh at Championship cleaners! My coat…read morelooks brand new thanks to him. He is the BEST and we are looking forward to being loyal customers.

    I had a bed bug situation for the second time, and I was stressing out. I had done the washing of…read moreeverything I own the first time, and I just could not imagine going through that again, so I went online and found Bed Bug Laundry Service (which in the contract says it's Astoria Cleaners Inc.). It had 3 good reviews here on yelp and a couple of good reviews in other places so I figured this would be a good place to use. WRONG! I separated my laundry. I had 18 bags, and sent 2 for dry cleaning and 16 for washing which I specifically labeled. They simply ignored that and sorted my laundry in the most expensive way they could find. They dry cleaned clothes that do not even have "dry clean" on the care label. I mean they dry cleaned my handkerchiefs (which btw should be washed with bleach), my snowboarding pants, my jeans, EVEN A BATHROOM RUG!! I mean who dry cleans a bathroom rug? When I argued that I had only sent TWO bags for dry cleaning, he told me that I had agreed to the contract and in the contract it says that they will sort out the clothes the best way they see fit. So yes that was my mistake to trust them and assume that they would sort it the best way possible for cleaning, not that they would sort the laundry the most expensive way an dry-clean almost everything I sent them. In the end they sent me a bill of almost $3000 which I had to pay in full before they delivered my clothes. I tried to negotiate but the owner would not budge and told me if I didn't get my clothes within the time agreed they would start charging me for storage. I am so angry. I ended up charging my card over my spending limit because, how else would I be able to afford this? I don't know. All I know is that this service is a rip off and they will make sure to sort your clothes in the most expensive way possible. I would give it zero stars if I could.

    I just found out about this company a few of months ago. I have used their service about 4-5 times…read more My job requires me to travel a lot. Whenever I'm back in NYC, I'll give them a call to pick up my dirty laundry from my apartment. I have also used their dry cleaning service for coats, blouses, etc. So far, everything has been great - no missing pieces and all my clothes always come back clean and pressed. Definitely one of the best cleaners in NYC!
