She made clear what her plans were for alterations and checked in frequently to ensure I was happy with it throughout the process. I would personally very much recommend this business.

Overall very uncomfortable experience and I will never go back. I told my bridal shop to stop…read morerecommending her as a seamstress. I made this appointment almost a month ago and told her that my wedding is early June. She did not mention that this would not be enough time to alter my dress when I initially booked the appointment over the phone. She didn't ask any follow-up questions and just booked me. Fast forward to today, I go in and arrive 15 minutes early to be courteous and punctual. I awkwardly stand there for 5 minutes without any acknowledgment, and then a women (I'm assuming is her) comes over and takes my dress. When she is going to hang it up, I asked her if it was okay that I brought a second dress (my rehearsal dinner dress) but before I could even finish she harshly cuts me off and told me "you need sit down, I have another client". I was very taken aback but how rude she was and it honestly caught me off guard. It was so bad I almost debated just taking my dress back and leaving but because I had waited a month for this appointment and my wedding was in a month, I figured I might as well see it through. Huge mistake. I change into my dress and describe to her the alternations I was looking for, which is to shorten it a little and also remove the breast cups. I did not think it was a significant amount of alternations but she seemed to think so. She then proceeded to tell me that she "may" be able to do it, but then looked at her calendar and said that she couldn't guarantee it. I honestly was so confused because she knew my wedding date when she booked this consultation appointment. If it wasn't something that could be done I feel she should've just told me up front rather than let me wait until the appointment. At that point I didn't even put up a fight as in the back of my mind, I knew I wouldn't have been comfortable with her altering my dresses anyways. She gave off the impression that if anything needed tweaking or wasn't to your satisfaction you would be SOL. All in all, a huge waste of my time. It would've been less of a bad experience if she wasn't so rude upfront. I'm starting to think her 5-star google reviews are faked, as at least on Yelp there are a few honest reviews that mention her bad attitude to her clients so it seems to be a common theme. I have no doubt she would've done a good job at the alternations, but that trust was gone.

This review is definitely long, but if you are thinking about using Zips Cleaners for any service,…read moreI Highly suggest you read this review first. My ordeal started on 5/4/26 and it is now 6/5/26. They burned my suit pants, and left a black mark on my vest and they still have not compensated me for it. In fact they are ignoring my complaints and not responding to my emails. Please read my timeline below and view the pictures as well. This review will definitely help you make a decision of whether you want to take a RISKY chance using Zips Cleaners services. Monday - 5/4/26 - 7am - Took 25 items to be dry cleaned at the Lanham MD location 8805 Annapolis Rd Lanham, MD 20706. These garments consisted of full 2 and 3 piece suits. Tuesday - 5/5/26 - 7am - Picked all the items back up. Later in the day I inspected the suits. During so I discover several burn looking pattern marks on my brownish/ dark gold pants. I discovered almost the same burn mark on my gray pants but it wasn't as noticeable as the dark gold pants. I discovered a dark black mark on the gold vest and also some white marks on another suit. The main issue was the burn marks though especially on the dark gold suit pants. If an item is defective Zips will put a blue tag on it labeling it as defective or it has some type of issue. This was not the case with my damaged items so obviously my garments were in tip top shape when I left them in Zips care. Wednesday - 5/6/26 - 8:50am - I contacted zips through their website and let them know what was going on with my pants. I also sent pictures after the General Manager Lori responded to the complaint. Through email the General Manager instructed me to take the items back to the Lanham store and ask for the store manager Ana and she would help me. Thursday - 5/7/26 - Took all the damaged garments back. Friday - 5/8/26 - Called Zips they told me my garments would be ready at 5pm Saturday 5/9/26. I asked her if I could just pick them up Monday and she said that's fine as well. Monday 5/11/26 - 7:30am - I get to zips to pick up my items. I let the cashier know about my situation. I even showed her pictures of the damage. She looked up my account and immediately brought all the items over to me. They were all pressed and on hangers and in the plastic suit bags ready to go. The white marks on the dark brown suit were gone so it looked like they dry cleaned them again. I inspect the items and before I could even say anything the cashier saw the burns still on the pants. She said it looked damaged by the iron. That's what I thought all this entire time. Monday 5/11/26 - 2:20pm - I called Zips and talked to Ana the store manager. She informed me that she knows it's not stains but its ACTUAL BURNS. She said that she's waiting on Lori the General Manager to see what she wants to do. I emailed the General Manager the same day and explained all this. Lori Madero (The General Manager) emailed back and basically was saying how my logic was flawed and I guess her Store Manager's logic was flawed as well and pretty much on the defense of the company. She also seemed like she had an egotistical superiority complex. She said "the cashiers shouldn't be giving their opinion on garments"... like we are in a country with no Freedom of Speech. The cashier just said what it looked like, she wasn't giving a professional opinion so why be upset at that? Then the General Manager Lori continued by saying that only she makes the decisions and not the cashier nor the store manager. She said only she can inspect the garments and make her own assessment before a decision is made. Yet I was not told any of this beforehand. I was led to believe that the store manager who works at that location full time would handle everything. I responded in kind and the last thing I asked was for her to have better communication going forward and I will need to know when she is coming to that Zips location so that I can bring the garments back for a 5th time beforehand. She ignored my email and never responded. 5-19-26 I sent physical printed letters to their corporate office. 5/31/26 I submitted more complaints on their website and still no response. It is now 6-7-26 and still no response. I have not even been offered a refund on the damaged items. I hope this gives people a better idea of what happens if Zips Cleaners damages your items. They will take no responsibility for it and they will stop contacting you intentionally.
