DO NOT EVER use Lemon Drop Cleaners in Hayden, Idaho for ALTERATIONS!
I took a pair a $150.00 dress slacks to be hemmed to a 29 inch inseam. Two weeks later when I picked them up, they had been hemmed to a 30.5 inch inseam. Additionally, the hem was not even finished. There was a place almost 5 inches long that had NOT been sewn down. The excess hem had not been removed, nor had the new hem been ironed down. A big mess! Sadly, I had purchased these pants to take on a trip.
When I returned the slacks to the cleaners, I was told it would take another two weeks to re-do them. Unacceptable as I was leaving on a trip. I asked for my money back as I was going to have to take them elsewhere to have the work done. I was told I could not get my money back as Lemon Drop had already paid the alterations lady!!! This was clearly their mistake NOT mine.
The counter person said they would get with the owner to see what could be done. They came back & said they could re-do them & have them back in time for my trip. I picked them up today. They did re-do them with a sweatpant type hem! And STILL NOT a 29 inch inseam, nor were the legs even, nor were they pressed down.
At this point I will have to wear them dragging the floor (just lovely for a formal night on a cruise!) & once I return, take them somewhere else to see if they can be salvaged. read more
