This is how it was returned to me after being "double checked" their damage was fixed ‍

NimNim has become my mortal enemy. In the interest of making this a quick PSA, the summary is: they ruined this brand new ($600) dress I wanted to wear for NYE. They picked it back up, did stuff to it without my consent, said they "double checked" it to make sure the discoloration was gone, but it's still very noticeable and unwearable. So upset. It was literally brand new and they ruined it, then tried to gaslight me into saying they fixed it. Maybe hoping I wouldn't check? Idk it's super noticeable so can't even try to make sense of it. Wasted so much time, energy, and patience, and a brand new $600 dress.

My new white shirt, after NimNim. Note the mysterious, burn-like damage which sadly cannot be removed by a relaunder.

Reply-To: team@getninmnim.com If you can spot the error in the address every single one of their promotional emails redirects to, you are already doing better than the NimNim team. Yes - spelling your own company name correctly in emails is a pretty basic requirement for a "professional service". In brief: I have used NimNim once and will never use them again. I'd strongly discourage anyone reading this from patronizing their business. In long: Having just moved to a new building I wanted a shirt, suit, and a few other items dry-cleaned. NimNim was on our concierge's recommended sheet and I went with them because they were cheap. Ah, what an error. In my order I stated that my suit jacket had a large crease on the back due to a previous dry cleaning fiasco. My order was picked up and returned quickly. All was well. Then I saw the results. First, the suit jacket had not been ironed at all - it was as creased upon return as when it was sent. See attached picture and decide for yourself if this was perhaps easily missed. Second, and much worse, a brand-new $100 white shirt was returned with what I can only describe as a burn (picture attached, perhaps someone else can label it better!) and is ruined after being worn once. Though I can afford dry-cleaning I can't afford to throw away single-use $100 shirts. I was headed to a wedding and went ahead and risked ironing the jacket myself but contacted NimNim about both issues. This was where I learned about their reply-to error, which I brought up to them and they have not corrected. (Note that in a separate issue their app does not use universal links and instead of defaulting to your phone's mail application it will always redirect to Apple Mail. Hopefully after spelling their business' name correctly NimNim will also learn to use 'mailto:') I sent my email on August 23 and was promised a swift reply. I submitted another ticket on August 27. Finally, on August 29, NimNim replied and asked me when they could pick up the goods to relaunder them. Yes, their solution for my already-ironed jacket and ruined shirt was to relaunder them. On August 31 I replied and described the situation again. It is now September 23 and I have heard nothing from them. Based on my experience, I do not recommend the NimNim service for any purpose in any capacity.

This place is a fraud. They don't show up for pick-up or drop-off and nobody responds to the help email. Stick with your local dry cleaner!

I had a pocket fixed in a pea coat I love. I knew this was going to be a difficult job because the entire pocket would have to be replaced, and you had to do it without taking the lining off. She said it would be a week, which is fine since I knew this was going to be a hard fix. But when I picked up the jacket, the replaced pocket was wonderfully done. The material she chose was even better than the original pocket. I was extremely happy and impressed. I love this jacket and I was upset when the pocket ripped. Oh and the price? 30 bucks. Still not bad for something that took a few hours to fix. And still cheaper than a new pea coat. I've also used the dry cleaning service many, many times, along with having suits altered there. I've never had a problem and the prices are extremely reasonable. The ladies who work the counter are always so friendly. It really is a Chelsea gem. So if you're in Chelsea and need a dry cleaner or a tailor, do not hesitate and just go to Orlan's. You won't regret it.

I'm greeted with smiles & such kindness as soon as I walk in. I have had such great experiences with their services! Quick turnaround & reasonable pricing! Recently, I had dropped off a suit for dry cleaning which I needed for work purposes in 2 days. I had called in on the morning of the day that I planned to pick up to ensure it'll be done. Per usual, they had it done on time. However, due to my mistake for not checking their Saturday hours & for missing their email since I got busy with work, I believed I was out of luck & would not be getting my suit for my flight the next day. I called their number an hour after close not expecting someone to pick up but thought it couldn't hurt to try & one of the sweet ladies picked up! I had asked if there was any possible way to come by & still retrieve my suit. She had informed me that they had closed & she had just got home, but she would drive back from a few towns over just to get me my suit that evening! I was blown away. Thank you for your incredible service. I cannot recommend Lapels in Malden enough!

The third time this happened I saw there was a number on the note and when I called it the guy came quickly. I also wish that they could tell me how much an item costs to alter ahead of time- I was told the company that does the alterations tells them the price after the items are done. This makes sense for a suit or wedding dress but not a basic hemming of pants. Luckily the price was reasonable but if it wasn't I would have to pay anyways..

I cannot say enough for their professionalism, care and competence. The gentlemen who were sent to my home to inspect the damage were kind, careful and truthful about their concerns and my options. For example, I have some delicate curtains that hang in my diningroom and were finished by hand. Despite their warnings, I had no choice but to try have them cleaned. Sal's removed each ring by hand, carefully cleaned the curtains and re-sewed the rings. The curtains look gorgeous with no damage whatsoever. Everything has been returned in perfect condition, carefully wrapped and with no odor. As a side note, I'd had a very bad flood in my home some years back and had extensive mold damage. That was the first time I'd been introduced to Sal's. Their service was impeccable and I was very pleased to hear that they'd be sent out again for this job. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I cannot speak to their prices as their bills have been sent to my insurance company.

Therewasnoway to see what they were taking since they all went different directions. They emptied our closets and dressers. We had little idea what they took. No photos, lists or receipts. When they began to bring back our clothes, a LOT of items were badly stained and damaged. One expensive coat not only had several new stains but looked like a dog attacked it... giant rip. A brand new cashmere sweater, never worn, was torn and newly discolored. When we finally got back what they said was everything, we began to notice items missing. Many of them were expensive. Many hadn't been worn and still had tags. Sals was unresponsive for many weeks. They never provided an inventory, only got that provided by our insurer who sent us their invoice. Many items on that invoice were not returned! We lost $10k plus of our belongings not even counting the dozens of items damaged and severely stained. Horrible! Don't ever do business with this unscrupulous company!!!
