Sparkling Cleaners

Do not go if you have a uniform! I went to drop off my uniform and they quoted a three day turn around which is very long compared to other cleaners in the area. When I went to finally pick up my uniform, they charged me $ 10.00 which is very high for a uniform, and the military crease was wrong! They can’t even get a military crease correct! If you don’t know what that is or how to do it, then either ask or tell the customer you have no idea how to properly do a military crease.
Stay away from this place.

The service here is great. They are very friendly & accomodating. Our clothes always come back to us looking crisp & clean. We love having sparkling cleaners in the neighborhood!

This place has always been awful but I guess from reading the reviews it is under new management. Well the new management isn’t much better than the old. The new owner stands out in the street chain-​smoking — daily — with no respect for those walking past (blows smoke into people’s path). I tried them once and my clothes came back smelling of smoke. Never again. It’s over-​priced, they lost a dress of mine (the old owners) and called me a liar when I asked where it was.
But the smoking — that was what inspired me to write a review. Horrible place.

2015 UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT…
I took my clothes here a couple of years ago and it was run by an older lady whose prices were steep and provided very, let’s say interesting, customer service. A few months ago (around February of 2015) Sparkling Cleaners seems to have been sold to a nice young man name Imad.
Imad provides excellent customer service. He is friendly, and appreciative of the business I provide. As far as the business of dry cleaning, everything comes back clean, fresh and not smelling of the usual dry cleaner chemicals (which has happened to me before at another place).
I had one dress shirt which I thought I had destroyed. It had a major ink stain on the sleeve (about the size of a half dollar — if anyone remembers those coins). Anyhow, Imad was able to remove the stain with no trace whatsoever — to the astonishment of my coworkers who thought the shirt was a goner as well.
I am very glad that Imad has taken over this shop and I highly, highly recommend people try his establishment. I would like to see him stay in business here in our neighborhood for a very long time. Like doctors and dentists, it’s hard to find a good dry cleaner in this town (especially one who appreciates their customers!).

I have been coming here for over 10 years and will not bring my clothes anywhere else. This is a great family run business, and they really care and take pride in what they do. Countless times staff helped me out when I was in a bind, and I am so glad they are in the neighborhood. They offer a top-​notch service and clean your clothes with quality and consistency every time. Always friendly and excellent service this is the best place around so happy they are here!

Picked up some clothes today and when I got home I noticed my khaki pants turned green.
I went back to show them and they said I brought the pants that way.
Wow!

I was in the need of a fast turnaround dry cleaning service. My girlfriend often washes her bedding at Sparkles which is few doors down and we know this little strip mall offered quite a bit of parking and had several stores one of which was a dry cleaning service.
Yesterday which was a Friday (04-​05-​2013) I came in with one item (a shirt) that I needed to have dry cleaned and available for pickup on Monday (04-​08-​2013). I was told that the earliest they could have my ONE ITEM back was Tuesday (04-​09-​2013). I am heading to Las Vegas next week and need it now, not later.
If you are looking for fast turnaround service Sparkling Cleaners is probably not the place you want to go.
I will not be back to this cleaner.

The only reason i had my daughter take my white dress shirt there, was 2 reasons;
I needed it pressed (ONLY) we moved and couldn’t find my iron.
And, it was convenient.
HOWEVER, she just went to pick it up and it was $ 4.50! just for «pressing «it and the cranky woman said… its a BLOUSE, not a shirt! that’s why it’s $ 4.50!!!
I called and she was just as cranky and rude to ME! I said, thank you, and we will NEVER take our business here again. her response…“OK Thanks» and hung up on me!
Amazing, that people are not only a rip-​off, but RUDE while doing it.
Gotta get an iron!!!
ONE star is ONE too many!!!

I first went to Sparkling Cleaners out of convenience. I live right down the street and needed a few silk tops dry cleaned. The shirts were ready three days later which was fine, no huge rush. I picked up my shirts and they were nicely cleaned and pressed.
Last week, I had a few delicate items for dry cleaning. The items included were a lace top, silk shorts, and a silk top with a silk camisole underneath. The silk camisole was attached to the top. This information is pertinent considering the final outcome. Seeing that I had gone once before and they did a good job, I would try them again.
When I picked up my dry cleaning, the items looked good. It wasn’t until I got home and started putting away my clothes that I noticed the damage. 1 — my silk shorts were pinned to the hanger with SAFETY PINS! Who puts holes in silk?! I’ve used other dry cleaners that use small plastic clips, but never safety pins. 2 — the camisole had been detached from the top! Not only was it detached, it was yanked from the top. The inseams had been ripped and it had caused a hole in the shoulder seam. Whoever handled my clothes was careless.
That is the last time I will ever use Sparkling Cleaners. Sad too because they are really conveniently located.

Friendly Staff and good service. Thank you.

Maria is great! I set up an account and I can literally run in & drop my clothes off and pick them up next day! WONDERFUL :)

*** I’d be remiss if I did not review Sparkling Cleaners. ***
I spilled some coffee on off-​white linen pants and seafoam
green cotton shirt. Coffee stains on pastel and light colors!
I thought for sure they were ruined forever so they sat in my
closet for 6 months before I finally took them to the cleaners.
Well once I did drop these off, the lady here suggested «not to
get my hope up but she’ll see what can be done». She asked
to keep them until Thurs. It was Sun at that time but I agreed.
Hell, they sat in the closet for ½yr … so what’s 5 more days?
Now both pieces look brand new. Idk how she did it, but yay!
*** Don’t be in a hurry. It’s slow around here yet all good. ***

The WORST dry cleaners I have ever had the misfortune to use. To cut a long story short I took my silk blouse to be dry cleaned on a Tuesday and was told it would be ready Friday, went to collect on Friday at 3pm only to be told blouse wasn’t ready and to call back in an hour, so I did. Blouse still not ready, they took my phone number and told me they’d call me Sat am, they didnt call. Called them and was told INK had been spilled on my blouse by accident and it was ruined, owner said she’d give me a full refund if I had my receipt on Monday. Went to collect blouse on Monday, owner not in, call back after 4.30pm. For the 4^th time I called back to pick up blouse and took receipt for blouse with me. Owner told me she was no longer going to give me a full refund for the cost of the blouse but a depreciated amount as I’d worn the blouse! Very cross, told her this was not good enough and then she told me that I should be spending more time looking after my baby and not getting upset over a blouse and to top it off said I should «go back to the Country I came from»! Charming. So now I have a ruined blouse and no refund, but learnt that the owner/​manager of this dry cleaners is a racist.

I had a good experience here on a recent visit. I was going on a trip, and I needed some pants altered. It was late, and all other places were (A) not open, (B) did not have anyone there to take measurements, or © wouldn’t guarantee that the pants could be ready in time.
But Sparkling Cleaners (though it was closing at the time) took the measurements, made a rush order, and didn’t even charge extra. They did a good job on the pants as well. The woman who runs the place is pretty friendly (and chatty).

I write this review with some hesitation because they have my pants in their possession. What would they do with my pants after they read this review? Probably the same thing they did when I asked them to remove a stain on my shirt — nothing. When almost every place is now offering quick turnarounds on clothes, they still take 3 – 5 days to get things done. In this neighborhood of liquor stores and laundromats, you have better choices. Don’t take my word for it!
