Friendly, honest and genuine. Had my duvet and dress cleaned, as well as, a zipper replacement on pants. Dry cleaning done beautifully. Zipper change did not need to be done, I was using it wronglol. Regardless, he showed me why my zipper was not staying up and was so kind and non-judgemental about the whole thing. Lovely staff, genuine, funny. A lovely experience

I had my Nike down jacket cleaned here. My jacket got damaged (the feathers on the back are clumping together) due to dry cleaning. I went to the store, and they didn't account for the damage. They told me that my jacket has a defect with dry cleaning, so they are not responsible. I google and find that you can't dry-clean down jackets. Also, the tag on my jacket mentions Do Not Dry Clean. They were supposed to know this and choose the CORRECT method for the customer's cloth. But they dry-cleaned it anyway. When the fabric got damaged due to their mistake, they won't be taking any responsibility

The device is friendly and the service is good. It would be nice if Avalon had a loyalty discount to demonstrate they appreciate their repeat customers.

Great dry cleaner and friendly service. Removed spots from clothes that I didnt think they could get out. Well done! They also have a seamstress who altered both my wedding dress and my daughters flower girl dress and they fit perfectly now! Thank you!

I have used Avalon service from last couple of years and found it excellent. Staff are very friendly and always helped me. My cloths are always ready when I go for pickup.

Went in on a Wednesday, was told couldn't be guaranteed that my stuff would be ready until Monday. I'm all about local, but unless you have a week+, I'd simply advise you to take your business to any number of the other places in relatively close proximity that can clean your clothes in a reasonable amount of time.
Edit: Nice quick reply but also quite incorrect. Very much NOT a misunderstanding.

The employee was VERY clear on this point. He told me because none of the work is done in house that there's a chance the garments might not make it back before the weekend and nothing could be guaranteed
