    So I brought my new machine into Whitlock's with a list of the issues that I had been dealing with to see if they could somehow help me.

    Meh. Pretty expensive, in my limited experience. I had 4 articles cleaned (a jacket and 3 shirts),…read moreand the bill was nearly $80. The jacket alone was $35, which is more than I paid for it on sale at Nordstrom. (I've had it cleaned twice in the past, each time it was about $15, for comparison.) I'm somewhat convinced they didn't clean one of the shirts, as it came out smelling worse than before, and I had to have it cleaned elsewhere immediately after. (Better luck the second time.) Close to my house and convenient, though I'm not sure I'd go again. Particularly not with the jacket.

    BEWARE....PLEASE READ…read more My family has lived and shopped in Salem for 3 generations. We have a long history with many of the business's in town. A friendly history. That said, this is one business that I will never be back to. I have spent over 1200.00 in the last year with Johnston Cleaners. But as of today I am done. Last week when I picked up my cloths the young lady that works there part time charged me for something that was not done. She said it would be done the next day. When I went in the next day the Owner (him) said that they couldn't repair the item. I then asked what about the money that I was charged he said that I never paid any extra. I asked him to look it up and he said he would later. I went back in today to get some other stuff and asked him again. He said that I never paid. Very politely I said I did and asked if he would look. He said he did and that was that. I then told him that I was sure and asked where the young lady was. At that point he went off on my. He told me to "F" off and go "F" myself many times. I was blown away. I was so shocked that all I could say at the time was "WOW" he then told me to "GO F... YOUR WOW" He did all this in front of another customer wow was also blown away. I have never had an owner come close to doing that in front of me to anyone. And this was all over 20 bucks. He did all this when I simply asked him to ask his employee. I had been warned several years ago about him from someone but I was already going there and hadn't had a problem. The customer that witnessed this cal out to the parking lot after and said he was done as well. I would recommend that NO ONE do business with this man. I believe that had I not just kept my month shut and left that he might have got physical with me. He was that quick and aggressive with his temper. Be aware, this man is unstable.

    Before I launch into my review, allow me to paint a picture. I gave myself less than two months to…read morefind THE dress. I kept putting it off, mostly because I hate the experience of dressing rooms and the insane pressure to find THE ONE. I had just graduated from college a month prior and the anxiety combined with post grad blues and the fact that most of my bridesmaids were unable to be there was ramping up. Before my fitting, Michelle called to ask more specifics. What did I want, what was my price range, etc. I had an envisioned a dress for months previous but thought I would keep an open mind (especially since my wedding is in two months). THANK GOODNESS I DID! I scheduled an earlier appointment and arrived with my mom and little sister in tow. The gallery had just opened which gave us the entire store to ourselves. I'm very much a bride-on-a-budget so we were mainly shopping from the Outlet. Michelle had put aside a dress that she thought would be cool, didn't pressure me, and I agreed thinking it would be fun. Little did I know, it would be the one. The entire experience was amazing; they served us seasonal mocktails during the fitting, Michelle held up a suit coat in the color of my groom to help me envision the big day clearly, I was able to try on a wonderful selection of gorgeous dresses all within my price range and even one from the Gallery. I didn't feel any condescension for the fact that I was shopping from the outlet and was treated with respect and words of affirmation. I had another appointment later in the day so I didn't nab it up right then and there...but I couldn't get the dress off of my mind. I went back a few hours later and tried it on again. Michelle was so kind, gave me all the time, and the relief when I said yes was very much mutual. She even gave me a hefty discount, which was extremely considerate. I found my NEW dream dress and I couldn't be more ecstatic over it! Can't say enough words of praise for the Bridal Gallery.

Such a sweet soul from the very beginning and an absolutely amazing listener! The store itself is very clean, organized and friendly. All staff greeted my family and I and they were truly there for us. The choices in dresses are beautiful! And the price range is amazing! I had gone to 3-4 store already not really seeing much that I loved and just after 10 min of chatting with her and hearing me out she pulls out the most amazing dress possible. Everything about this experience was just so comforting and thoughtful. Madilyn you truly are exceptional and I wish you nothing but the best!!
