A Real Laundry With Hot Dryers

[JimmyTheMook]

For those who hate having their clothes washed in cold water and then hung up so the neck gets all stretched out here is a very new and good solution.

 

A European laundromat that is right on 3rd Road / Soi Lengkee - next to New York Pizza.

 

Prices are reasonable and the washers have hot water options as well as actual gas fired dryers.

 

Life's simple pleasures have arrived.

There's a few of these laundry places around town but they never seem busy, small business, small clientele small income.

It's also open 24 hours for the night owls.

We are getting these all over CM the problem with the dryer is that most people dry there cloths to hot this will damage the threads causing shorter life span of clothing

It's a lifelong dilemma.  Hang dry and get a stretched neck or dry quickly in a hot dryer and risk having the T-shirt shrink.

The hot water wash & hot dryer kills any bacteria and smells.

 

My cotton T shirts hold plenty of sweat so love having them disinfected properly.

Just don't hang T-shirts by the neck, hang them with half on one side and half on the other.

We would do this at home but those laundry places around Pattaya stretch out the neck on my T-shirts from size 16 to size 19 after a couple of washes.

I like the warning sign not to put dogs in the dryers..maybe they need a sign on the washers too

+ one warning not to put babies in either machine !!!!

Most laundry's use dryers these days and do it all for you including the ironing for not much money, so why you would want to use one of these places?

You must have really poor comprehension then.

 

I have nothing to do with ownership of this place but just glad 

there is finally a western style laundromat with machines that have hot water and proper dryers.

 

I've used plenty of the mom and pop drop off places @ 70pc for 500Baht - easy to do, but I'd rather have my clothes washed properly for a change.

 

Carry on now....

No most hang your stuff out in the street or back of the shop - soaking wet - on hangers so the neck gets all stretched out.

 

Good look for some , along with the Chang wife beater they wear.

Fortunately I have a balcony, drying rack, ironing board and iron, but if there was a warm wash machine nearby I would use it.

dryer destroys clothes . use a clothes horse

Weve had two in Jomtien for almost a year, took a few months to take off but seem quite busy now.

This is not my area of expertise. I'll have to check with the wife.

"Soaking wet"?  So you're saying those washing machines don't have a spin cycle?

I noticed the other day a coin laundry on Thappraya Road on the right-hand side as you head toward Jomtien.  It was about a block before the Rita Resort, IIRC.  I think the name was WASHCOIN, or some similar two-word reversed title.  Looked like it had machines like in the OP, so assume it had hot wash and hot dry capability.

Knowing the price of these machines, I also wonder how they hope to make money ?

Let me help those commenters about how many of these "already exist" around town.

 

These are proper industrial style laundromat washer and dryers .

 

Yes there have been tons of the crapola type HomePro plastic tubs around fitted with coin slots - no question about that.

 

Here is can access a real hot water wash and hot dryer.

 

It's great.
