Laundry comes back very well ironed. Best company I have tried.

People from IHI are responding very quickly, the company it self is very efficient. It is not cheep but most industries raised their prices. Sometimes the ironing is not perfect, it obviously depends what subcontractor is being on used. Also I would wrap the ironed items in thicker paper because the tissue paper is not holding so well and it is tearing very easily. Drivers that are delivering or picking up sometimes coming ahead of time, they should be within the hour or hour and half that customer agreed to. All are growing pains and I can see future improvement.

I hate ironing provided a good quality service. There was an error on original invoice as did not read my instructions. However this was quickly rectified by customer service

Quick service. Some invoicing inaccuracies which are put right when challenged. A few lost shirts and other items - machine ironing is sometimes poor - not hand finished.

Perfectly adequate service for basic shirts and wash and fold laundry. Not careful enough with dry cleaning of suits and more tailored garments. Every single suit lapel comes back pressed out of shape or worse. Quick and efficient pick up and delivery though.

I love this service but recent price changes mean that there’s a minimum order value, resulting in me paying £20 for a jacket to be dry cleaned which shocked me, but by the time I found out, it was too late. My advice is that it’s best to use this device for several items at once

Dry cleaning could be better the clothes come back smelly sometimes and laundry could be better ironing

They ruined several pieces of satin shirts and dresses. Sometimes the ironing is not great either. Definitely not as top notch as these ‘reviews’ are all saying!

Shrinking clothes are the main problem

My wedding dress has been ruined, what was beautifully soft, floaty and gorgeous silk tulle is now rough, hardened and feels like it might disintegrate and has completely shrunk so it is now almost the total length of my whole hand shorter than the underskirt. I am devastated and can’t undo what has been done. Absolutely heartbroken

Horrible experience. Never again. One item missing, one completely ruined. Images attached. The blouse used to be pure white and was returned looking like a dirty cloth. Other items cleaned ok but also largely sub standard. I had to purchase a new blouse at my own expense as IHR would not offer a compensation. Skirt still missing. Dodgy!! Avoid!

I have been a regular user of your services. Yesterday, I gave my order to your driver and explicitly mentioned it needs to be “washed and dried”. This is following general practise as your website usually keeps hanging for me and I have previously been told to inform the driver of my needs to avoid any confusion given the inefficiency of the website. Today, I received an invoice from you stating the order amount to be 400% more than expected. Each item of clothing has been subjected to random treatments, with most of my ordinary clothes been subjected to dry cleaning. As soon as I saw this, I called up your service line to tackle this right there and then. I was told the clothes have already been treated and nothing more can be done. I am furious. I am not ready to pay 4x what I should have because of your inefficiency. If your driver is not trained, he should not be sent over. Now, it is ridiculous to be told that nothing can be done about this. I don’t expect this from you. I have been a regular user and am extremely disappointed with how things have been dealt with, especially how I have not been offered any help after the incident. I would not recommend your services to anyone. It is appalling.

I was thoroughly disappointed with the poor service I received from I Hate Ironing. I gave them a pair of designer jeans to be hemmed, with explicit instructions to maintain the original distressed hem style. However, when they delivered my order, the jeans had been altered with a basic straight hem rather than keeping the more original hem. Also, they lost the laundry bag I had given to them with my laundry. I also found the staff to be devoid of any customer service skills. When I pointed out the issues with my clothing items and missing bag, they gave no apologies or concern. Considering the high prices they charge for simple clothing alterations and dry cleaning services, I expect far better care, professionalism and quality results. Sadly, I Hate Ironing failed enormously on all counts. I cannot recommend them if you have any specialty or valuable items you want properly handled and returned to you. For the outrageous prices they charge, you deserve better service and less damaged goods than I received. I will not be using them again.

DO NOT USE - absolutely the worst service. They didn't deliver me my shoes and my ski jacket back for a total value £1,400 and the customer service has been totally useless in trying to sort out the issue. I'm going on a ski tri in 3 days, I'm on the phone with them for 2 days (5+ calls made) already and they either IGNORE or LIE to me. When I realised that some of my items are missing, I gave them a call and they said that they couldn't retrieve my shoes from a special service on time, so they will deliver them the next day. No information on the ski jacket. I had to call them back after 3 hours (although they promised to call back straight away) and they said that the jacket needed more time to dry so it should be with me together with the shoes the next day. Okay, why was I not informed of that before I find out that my belongings are missing and have to call them? These things happen and I don't mind waiting an extra day but the attitude is unacceptable. IN AN HOUR, I receive an email that my ski jacket will be delivered in 3 WEEKS. Obviously, something happened and they lied that it needed more time to dry. They also keep calling my ski jacket a leather jacket although I've said 5 times, both via email and on the phone, that it is not a leather jacket. Are we even talking about the same item??? I demanded that my items must be returned no matter what their conditions are ASAP. In return, they send me emails that they are checking when my items can be ready. This is ridiculous. I'm still left without my clothes for my upcoming trip. I've spent hours on trying to get an answer from them and they just don't care. Also, they did not return my original hangers and they did not give you their bags that you can re-use. It's all a lie.

ihateironing ruined my jeans the whole colour came off. I have washed the jeans before and nothing happened, it was clearly their fault using hard chemicals and mixing it with other garments. They re-collected the damaged jeans for so called "examination" and they CHARGED ME for this?! unbelievably disgusting company.

My clothing was collected by an I hate ironing staff member over a week ago and then never seen again. I initially was told by text that the driver was looking for me but had to leave, and that the items had not been collected, so I rearranged collection the next day. I got the same (clearly automated) text the next day. I then realized that something had gone wrong. I have had to send five emails, make several phone calls, and wasted far too much time trying to retrieve my belongings. IHI insist that their driver never collected the items, even though I have CCTV footage of him taking the items and dropping them into his car. I will never use this service again. They have wasted so much of my time deflecting blame, and failing to help, I wouldn’t normally air my dirty laundry in public but have no alternative but to complain through a public forum as they are refusing to look for my items.

This company had lost 1 of my newly bought MaxMara coat (worths £2000), one Joseph jacket (cost over £400) and one tailor made cashmere coat which was a gift from my late grandmother to my mother, which costs over £1000. After back and forths, this company only willing to compensate £500. 1. I placed order to clean 3 items in July, the driver failed to deliver,- he simply rang the door bell and walked off within a minute..I called the customer service multiple times straight away, and also emailed, but they weren't able to respond to me. 2.For nearly 3 months, I tried to call the customer service almost three times every week, and I have never had anyone picking up the phone. I have record, happy to share upon request. 3. I was able to get in touch with the customer service nearly two weeks. They advised the order will be delivered to me, and I had waited at home two times and the driver did not show up. 4. I was able to reach Suleiman from the customer service, and he let me know they this company had lost my clothes. I provided my receipt and documentation of purchases as requested ( happy to publish email exchanges if anyone wants to see). After all these inconvenience, I was told that this company will only compensate £500, which is less than 20% of the value of all the clothes I have lost. My family have been loyal customers since 2017, it is such a disgrace to see what a farce this company had turned into. Please avoid, and stay away. I will be sharing my reviews on other platforms too. If you want to know more, do let me know.

I used them for the first time based on the positive customer reviews (so independent of my experience, they appear to be doing something right). I required 3 sets of curtains to be cleaned, which they confirmed would take 3 days and charged me £800. It eventually took 1 month, numerous last minute cancellations from them, and no compensation offered for all the inconvenience incurred (not least having no curtains for a month). The curtains didn't come back sparkling clean either (albeit hard to know how much this is just hard to remove stains in fairness). I'm certainly not a customer who would either recommend or use the service again.
