WAVE LAUNDRY, Tucson AZ

Nice place but I was shocked at the prices, but I haven't been in a laundry for 40 years

Current prices are as follows July 3,2023: 18lb. $2.50.35lb. $4.50 new Maytag capacity unknown $3.25 or more depending on your selections, power wash, hot, extra rinse, etc. Look carefully to see if the machine is working, there are little problems with most machines and some do not work at all. Dryers are 50 cents to get started and another $1.25 to completely dry a full load. Dryers will stop spinning if you overload but the timer will keep running so you need to watch your clothes being dried. There is a bathroom in ok condition which costs 25 cents to use, only pay to use bathroom in Arizona, or at least the only one I know of. Good wifi which is easy to connect to. Owners are here at night near closing and do NOT allow refunds. Change machine works ok, box detergent machine works sometimes, I would not recommend any of the machines for snacks or soap, however there is a circle k and family dollar next door. I am giving 5 stars because it is a good place for me since it is close by and I have learned all the work-arounds and the owner is nice to me. If you are fussy, You will not be happy here, if you just want to get your wash done and get on then you will most likely be ok. MarkMannM2

Like others said, this place needs a tune-up.half of the machines are not working, others are really dirty.no one around to take care of the place, the result is a unpleasing laundry-expierence.

Unless this is your last resort I would choose another. The entire place is old and not very well cared for, lots of machines not working, dirty, no attendant to return coins that were eaten by machines, washer/dryer appeared to clean & dry properly. Having no restroom makes it difficult to hang around while laundry is in cycle. Definitely glad we came when hardly anyone around.

Its so cute and great it has grate washers lots of folding space baskets very nice and quiet a area for reading for adults and kids the prices are worth it.i only give it 4 stars for now do to the bathroom to unlock it you have to use a coin to unlock it witch is understandable at a point but sadly it doesnt say what coin and how much we found this out when my 5year old went and put his $0.01 in to go potty and it didnt work lucky he was able to wait until are wash was done and barley made it to the bathroom in time i would give it a five stars if the bathroom if fix. Not everyone can afford to pay to go potty.

This is probably the nastiest laundromat I’ve been to. Standing water in machines, moldy smells, buildup in the soap dispensers, and over half the washing machines are out of order. Go elsewhere!

What a dump. Over half the machines are out of service. How does anyone keep in business like this! Won't be back!

Nice local laundromat. 18 dryers. 27 washers Washers are $3.25 12 lb top loader, $2.50 18 lb front loader, $4.50 35 lb, $5.50 40 lb,
$8.00 60 lb. Dryers are $. 50 first 12 min $. 25 each additional 6 min. Hours of operation allow for early risers or people who like to sleep in. Washer do a great job and dryers are plenty hot.
Has a coin operated bathroom. Would definitely come back here again.

The place is clean and the machines work well. It wasn't busy at all when I went. Its all quarter paid. Very quiet place to do your laundry.

Half the washers were not working. They were disgustingly dirty. They whole place was gross

Few laundromats can claim to have much personality, but this place is a total blast. There are clocks - mostly long-stopped - from every state, weird memorabilia, Chinese snacks in the vending machine, and a time-capsule collection of magazines from over the last 25 years. Check every machine before you put anything in; many are out of order. This place is still such a local favorite that I don't really mind.

This place is going down hill. I used to love it but there are so many things wrong with the washers and dryers more are broken than work sadly.
UPDATE:
JUST WHEN YOU THINK IT COULDNT GET ANY WORSE. BOOM IT DOES. SAVE YOUE MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE!

Machines are old. More machines were out of service than in service. Several washing machines had standing water in them. The place in general feels grubby.
I won’t use this place again.

At first I wasn’t sure about this place by the reviews but gave it a go since it was close to our campground. The change machine did work and gave the right change, the restroom was unlocked. We used a regular size machine for $3 which did good on a large load. The dryers dry really fast and we were the only ones there around dinner time. It was also clean and I would go back again!

This is an older laundromat. A lot of machines out of service but the ones working were fine. Prices were reasonable. Owner need to do some updating or repairs.

Adequate for washing is reason for 3 stars. Nothing grandioso. Quarters only machines. Coin/dollar machine does not work. Seems like a retirement community riding around in golf carts.lol.oh and you have to PAY to use the bathroom. Locals state it's to keep homeless from sleeping in them and using drugs in them? Can't they put change in it too and go in? Oh well it was safe and clean.

No management, no answer on the phone number provided, several machines out of order, and they make you PAY to use the toilet!

Would not recommend unless you have no other alternative

Eh, it's a self-service laundry.
First time I've had to use one in decades, so there was a bit of a learning curve; the washer took $1.50 for 30 minutes (I think) and I put in $3 before realizing that the 30 minute timer was running.
And the xtra quarters disappeared into the ether.
Oh well.
Free WIFI! That's a plus.
The tumble dryer experience was wonderful to behold, the machine was HUGE and somehow a measley 15 minutes was sufficiently dry for my paltry old-man hermit cachet of clothing.
Overall a satisfying visit, with a nod to the learning curve, lol.

Very clean laundromat! I thought it was a little expensive but then again I don't normally go to a laundromat so it might not be compared to other places. I also didn't use the coin machine, I brought quarters with me so I can't say if it works or not. But overall it was a good experience, they had a lot of current magazines and it was nice and cool inside. It also wasn't very busy when I went around lunch time on a weekday.
