Presto Cleaners

This spot is the best! Ive tried them a few times prior to the review just to be sure. Super legit and fast service, I like the fact that they are conscious of our environment as well. So freshh and soo clean :)

I’ve been coming here for 1 month now since I moved into the neighborhood and have been extremely happy with their service.

Pros: Haven’t lost any items due to damage, quick drop-​off/​pick-​up, prices are fine by me (coupons or deals on their website)
Con: Alteration lady was injured and not sure when she’ll be back or if they’ll get a replacement. (not a big deal)
Just to fill those in who are scoping other reviews:
My experience deals either of 2 girls to receive/​give my items to me. A very quick in-​n-​out stop. I only dry clean long sleeve button-​ups and slacks. I have no problem with customer service because there’s no chance to come across any. My experience involves having a girl take my clothes/​print ticket/​payment within 2 mins, and my pick-​up experience is similar.
Used to live in the area and have been taking my dry cleaning here for years, and now that I’ve moved to Pasadena, I still come here. Would recommend to other gentlemen who need shirts & slacks dry cleaned.

Dropped off 2 items to be tailored/​altered on a Friday, and was told they would be ready the following Tuesday.
…Tuesday I come in to pick up my altered items only to find out they HAVEN’T BEEN STARTED ON because the tailor broke her leg on SATURDAY, and was in the hospital.
No calls were made to inform me that nothing was being done. Come on people. You had an entire weekend and Monday to let your customers know. Someone could be having a major event coming up and be unwittingly screwed over!
Obviously, the employees here are:
A.) Careless
B.) Lazy
C.) Inconsiderate
Take your items here with hesitation. You never know. It could be you.

I have been coming here once a week for about six months now. I started coming here after another dry cleaner lost an item. It’s a bit out of my way — but well worth it.
The staff is very friendly and polite.
The clothes are always nicely cleaned and pressed. Another reviewer said their clothes smelled (?) — I have never had that problem.
Some dry cleaners have a way of breaking the buttons on men’s shirts — that has not happened here.
The clothes have always been ready on time.
I had some small alterations done once and the alterations lady did a nice job.
I highly recommend this place.

Not sure why i keep coming here. It takes them forever to complete anything. The girls at the counter are nice, never had a problem with them. the dry cleaning smells like old laundry… its a horrible smell for something I’m paying to get cleaned. Also i had sometime get repaired and they never even repaired it not to mention it was lost so i had to hunt for it with the lady. again. never had bad service but the smell of my clothes are YUK…

Always on time, very polite, and a very clean, professional establishment. I’m proud that it’s in my neighborhood! Also, they give a discount to KCRW members, which is perfect.
I feel that the prices are fair, especially for being eco-​friendly. Nothing has ever been ruined and they get stains out really well.

I’ve also had a bad experience at this establishment. There isn’t any good reason why an employee/​owner should be rolling their eyes in front of a client. Not to mention, they do seem really racist towards Armenians here. You’re in the wrong city if that’s how you feel about Armenians, since we’re probably the only ones who have kept you in business for this long in the first place. There should always be a level of courtesy and professionalism. This also happened to me and I will never give them my business again. There are so many dry cleaning facilities in Glendale where they are courteous, professional, won’t change pricing on you at the very last minute and definitely won’t lose one of your shirts and have you wait 10 minutes in order for them to locate it. They should definitely compensate a patron of their store if that happened. Michael S, who does sound like he might be the owner, should not make unnecessary comments about his clients. He should take what’s being said as constructive criticism and not make excuses for his employees by blaming the consumer. I would give them a negative 5 star rating if I could, especially after reading Michael’s comment. Shame on you!!!

I don’t usually go to the dry cleaners, my husband does and he is very particular about his shirts. He has not been to happy with the other place he usually goes to so he asked me to find a new place, so I decided to try Presto Cleaners. The place was buzzing, it is amazing to me how organized the staff was in dealing with a large volume of people, at least at the time that I was there which was around 5:30 — 6:30 p.m. for drop off and pick up. The people there were efficient and nice. The shirts were clean and pressed nicely and my husband was happy with his shirts, so I think when he needs them cleaned again he will give them another shot.

Real good people, real nice staff, very professional, very flexible, very friendly and prices are good too.
I always bring my clothes here and also if I need to shorten my trousers I bring it to them.

I decided to try Presto cleaners and had a great first experience. I dropped off 2 blouses ($ 8) and they gave me 25% for being a new customer (you can also get 25% off if you print the coupon on their website). The lady was super friendly and my items were ready in 2 – 3 days. They did a good job and were able to take out some minor stains. I’ll most likely be back. Prices are a little higher than my favorite place in Pasadena but still fairly reasonable with the coupon. Presto has a private lot so parking is always a cinch.

Fair pricing and courteous staff.

I recently moved to the Glendale area a few months ago and was looking for a good dry cleaner. So, like I do for everything in a new city, I came to Unilocal for guidance. My experience with Presto Cleaners was a disaster. I took my king size comforter to them to be cleaned. I was told it would be 5 days, okay no problem. So, on day 5, I go to pickup the comforter. To my dismay, the comforter is balled up, lying in a clothes basket in the back and had never been sent to be cleaned.
I was very frustrated, especially since I had been using a thin throw blanket for a week that wasn’t doing the job at all. They apologized and said that they would have it to me in 2 days and would knock off 25%. Well, I go pickup the comforter and everything appeared normal until I got home. All of the inner filling of the comforter was displaced and the comforter is essentially ruined. The comforter was only 2 months old at the time I took it to them. I will never use this place again.
***** UPDATE *****
I was contacted by a representative from Presto Cleaners about my bad experience on Friday ⁹⁄₁₃. They offered to reimburse me for the loss of my comforter and gave me a credit to use in the future. This was the right thing to do and I applaud them for it. I believe that everyone deserves a second chance and I may be willing to try them again. Thanks Presto Cleaners for doing the right thing.

Very disappointed. I gave this place a try because I live nearby, big mistake. I dropped off 2 pairs of jeans a black pair and a very dark denim, along with slacks that needed a new zipper.
The jeans were new and belong to my boyfriend they are his work clothes. I decided to dry clean them because I hate how when I wash them they lose all their color. When I got them back I was pissed, the black ones were dry cleaned but the jeans were obviously not, they had been thrown into the washing machine and obviously washed in water. I used to work at a dry cleaner myself so I know. The zipper was so sloppy, there was strings hanging out everywhere and the stitching was not straight. Wtf? I could have done better. We paid $ 21 with a 25% discount. Geez how much does it cost? My bf picked up the clothes but I called to let them know what had happend and a guy answered saying he was the owner. All he said was that he wouldn’t charge me next time! What? How about a refund for making my boyfriends new jeans look old?
I will not be going back and every day when I drive by I get bothered. He said I should specify that I want the jeans dry cleaned! Excuse me? what am I doing at a dry cleaner? The least he could have done is give me a refund but no he just said next time they wouldn’t charge me. He also mentioned that this doesn’t happen at his cleaners but it did and I am very un happy that now I have to go out and buy him a new pair of jeans when I had just done that and now I have another pair of jeans to add to the faded collection. I could have washed them better alone in cold water inside out and would have gotten a better result. Also they were wrinkled in all the places where there is creases like on the bottoms where the jean meets his shoes and at the pockets, not to mention all the white lines that are there now.
Save yourself grief and do not go here, or if you do specify that you want the clothes dry cleaned and not thrown into the washing machine.

Reasonable prices. They do an amazing job and fulfill any request I’ve ever had. Owner is personable, you are treated like a million bucks when you come here. Coffee for all patrons, amazing cleanliness and every ridiculous request is addressed. I am a difficult dry cleaning customer; want things starched a certain way, no plastic, things put on my hangers, do not like certain folds, etc. Presto Cleaners is the only dry-​cleaners to ever get it right. And at a bargain! There is a reason I drive to Glendale once a week from Studio City to pick up my clothes.

My husband and I have been going to Presto regularly for about a year. They do good work and we’ve never had a rpblem with their services. Sometimes it can take a day or so more than I’d like or expect for laundry service for my husband shirts, but I think this is probably because I tend to procrastinate and bring in dozens at a time.
Excellent customer service.
Decent alterations too if you need jeans hemmed, etc.

I’ve been taking my dry-​cleaning exclusively to Presto for years now and have always been treated right.
The location is clean and efficient, I’m usually in and out in less than 5 minutes. Not much of a coffee or espresso drinker to take advantage of their machine, but that’s the kind of attention most other local businesses forget is important to their image, if for no other reason.
Clothes: I don’t wear any delicate couture clothing or $ 10,000 saville row suits, but have some items I am extremely fond of. They’ve always taken care of everything I’ve given them and their upfront honesty on their ability to work with some stains is appreciated.
Overall, I can’t think of any reason to not give Presto 5 stars and will continue giving them my business for years to come.

Cant believe i’ve never reviewed my FAVORITE neighborhood dry-​cleaners.
Been taking my items there for quite sometime now and I have never had any issues with pick up, drop off, lost items… they have amazing customer service and will try to make any deadlines you have.
They also offer alterations. I wouldnt go anywhere else… come to think of it i have 3 other closer options but i drive here :)

I gave Presto a shot after receiving a coupon in the trusty Val-​Pak mailing. Then after becoming a customer, they send you more coupons. I appreciate coupons. But lets get to the service and the cleaning; no one needs a recommendation of coupons.
The places always has a buzz, which is good — they can handle volume. I personally have never had a problem with them cleaning any of my items. Everything is cleaned the way I want it and returned in a neat and orderly fashion.
All in all I’d say good service, good cleaning and on-​time delivery.

I had been a loyal customer of theirs for the past 4 years. This past time, I took a delicate silk blouse in for dry cleaning. I picked up the blouse to find that the stain had been removed (after 2 attempts), but that there was a hole in the fabric, below where the stain had been.
What disappointed me even further was that the staff was trying to convince me that the hole was there previously… maybe just not as large. That’s a ridiculous suggestion, especially since I carefully looked over the blouse before handing it over to them a 2^nd time.
Last Wednesday I was told that I’d be contacted by the store’s owner, this has yet to happen. This makes me very sad because I thought that I finally found a dry cleaner I could trust with my clothing, turns out I was wrong!
