    I requested a quote and GV was near my neighborhood and had competitive prices. I quickly found street parking; dropped off (2) pair of pants to be hemmed and within 2 days they were available for pick up. I tried one pair prior to leaving and the fit was good. The only thing that was a little off-putting was not allowing me to use my 10% YELP discount (because I had alterations done oppose to regular dry cleaning). Other than that, I had a good experience and would bring back more clothing for alterations.

    I had my regalia for Graduation for dry cleaning there. When I came home and checked it was torn. It is honestly not a big deal since I had enough time before the graduation. i come back and explainEd to person the issue. She said I was lied to her and I torn it myself (!) Finally they agreed to fix it. I even offered to pay for it and said next time I will check in front of them to avoid this issue in future. When I pick up it again they wrote on my check "Do not lie please " I do not recommend not this place;) even I thought I would use it again. I don't think I will come back

    The jacket that was returned

    Sent over 20 items to be dry cleaned after reading the good reviews and my suit jacket was returned like this. The matching pants are in a similar condition. Have not heard back from them after messaging. The rest of the items seem fine but will not be going back after spending $150 on cleaning and getting my items damaged. The suit was purchased in august and work only a few times. Very disappointed.

    They were able to get all this wine out.

    I was out at a bar and the gentleman next to me spilled red wine on my white pants... Like the whole, full glass. I thought these pants were goners and the woman at the counter was even skeptical. When I picked up the pants, by some magic they were able to get a of the wine out. I'm more than thrilled and will be taking all my clothes here from now on!

    Good dry cleaners- had no issue and they return clothes very quickly. Check-in with Yelp and received a discount your first time.

    Did a great job taking out miscoloring on some beadwork on my wedding gown. Had the work done very quickly and reasonably.

    Lost half my clothes the first time using this service. Just got off the phone with "customer…read moreservice" and their solution is for me to file a claim where I send them pictures of my missing items. I don't know about you, but I don't have pictures of my socks and bras. And I don't make it a habit of taking pictures of the clothes in my hamper. When pressed, she said the company has photos they can use to find my items. If a representative bothers to respond to this review, don't believe anything they have to say about this being an anomaly. My clothes were delivered last night, yet when I texted customer service about my missing items, I got this form response: "Hi Crystal - I'm so sorry to hear about the issue with your order. To help us assess and resolve quickly, we'll need a bit more information. If your order was delivered in the last 14 days, please complete our simple claims form here: www.rinse.com/customers/claim. Please include: 1) Photos of the items 2) A link to where the item (or comparable) can be purchased online. If it has been more than 14 days, you can send this information here and we'll open a claim for you. Thank you - we're here to help." So you lose people's clothes often enough to have a canned response ready??? Do NOT use these people. I don't know where to begin replacing these items. I'm so glad I didn't let them dry clean my custom-made items. My next stop is the Better Business Bureau. Rinse should not be in business. Shame on you.

My Experience: I needed to get a comforter cleaned because my washer and dryer are too small to accommodate them. I dropped it off on a Wednesday morning with no issues and picked it up Thursday afternoon. The comforter was perfectly cleaned; there was not even a piece of hair or anything left on it. They even sewed up a hole from the one time I tried to wash my comforter with no extra charge! Whenever I need dry cleaning or anything tricky cleaned, I will 100% use Mass Court Cleaners.

That being said I'm so glad I came here. I needed some clothes altered and she did a wonderful job. She was very knowledgeable and chatted with me about what I wanted for the hems on the pants I needed tailored and offered really helpful input. Will definitely be a returning and frequent customer for both tailoring and dry cleaning. Also, dropped my clothes off (2 pairs of pants and a shirt) on a Tuesday and they were ready by Saturday morning. I wasn't in a rush to get them back so I was pleased with the timeliness of the service. And finally, yes, this place is expensive. But honestly, I'd rather pay more for a job well done then go anywhere else in the area and have them ruin my clothes. The reviews that are knocking the prices obviously haven't lived in DC long enough, everything here is expensive. That being said, if you're looking for a bargain, I would look elsewhere.
