Only the Best

Dexter Washers
Shortly after we had this great idea to open a laundromat in Lviv, Ukraine (four years ago), we decided to join the Coin Laundry Association. Shortly after joining the Coin Laundry Association, we learned that Dexter equipment is the very best. So, of course, for our store (and laundromat chain) we needed Dexter washers and dryers.
In addition to figuring out how to purchase, transport, and get these babies from Iowa, over the ocean across many borders, and through customs ... the Ukrainian government had to certify them before they could be used. After all, these machines are the first of this kind to enter the country. Makes sense really, I mean if we were bringing in large industrial equipment from Ukraine to the States, I'm sure a myriad of government agencies would want to plug in the thing, run it, test it, whatever, before they gave the okay for commercial use.
Well, I am here to let you know, Dexter passed with flying colors. In fact, the Ukrainian government agency said our dryers were tested "beyond a level of precision than the government testing and certifying machines were able to handle." Woo hoo! We knew they were good. And - as if that isn't enough - the government official who tested them wanted to know where he could buy, and or use, one of these machines ... he was that impressed. He's on our contact list for when we franchise into Kyiv. Only the very best for Bubbles!
