Hangers - recommendation please

 

Does anyone have recommendations for hangers to best maximize space in a closet? It'd be mostly for shirts/blouses and possibly pants.

 

I was reading about Joy Mangano's huggable hangers and am considering those along with the hooks to optimize vertical space.  Is there a particular set you'd recommend to start with?  (It seems they are popular; but, I am not familiar with them.)

 

Thanks!

I second for Joy.  I even got a cute pink set for my daughter.

 I have closets full of the Huggable hangers.I like them.They are sleek & useful.But be aware they do break.I know she says that they are indestructible but that's just not true.

 I have been buying them for at least 10 years.The older ones as well as the newer ones have broken. Not a lot but it can happen.I lose about 5 or 6 a year.That being said I would recommend them.

 My friend had a lot of breakage  with her hangers.She switched to another cheaper similar type & is very happy.She has had no breakage at all in over 3 years.

I started with a small order of Joy's from HSN.  Liked the color. but the first year one broke and although I run my A/C year round in Florida, some of the hooks became rough.  Not rusty looking, but feeling rusty.  And every year one or two more break.  In my mind that makes her hangers expensive.

 

So, I bought Costco's version -  much less expensive, but all black, and I've had no issues.

 

Then I saw some pretty pink on very deep sale at Bed, Bath.  They've also been fine.

 

I still like the colors Joy offers, but my closets function great right now -  I'd buy Huggable's copies -  anywhere I could find them cheap.

Target carries the Huggable hangers as well as other brands.    I catch them on sale or when I have a coupon.   I don't buy the Huggables, I buy the others.   I love those velvet/flocked hangers.  I've never had one break---yet!

 

I've tried the hangers that allow you to hang items vertically, 1 on top of another and so forth and didn't care for it.

@Julie_23 Hi! If you search "hangers" on Bed Bath & Beyond you will see several options. I like these:

 

Attachable Hangers (set of 10 clip onto each other to use vertical space)

Chrome Skirt Hangers with clips

4-Tier Skirt Hanger in Chrome

Honey-Can-Do Skirt/Slack Hangers in Crystal Clear

 

They do have the flocked hangers (I'm not a fan though) as well as the more sturdy white plastic hangers.

 

You can check them out in the store first. Good luck, EEL Woman Happy

Re: Hangers - recommendation please

I redid all my closets a couple years ago with the velvet (Joy M type) hangers, and am pleased with the results.    It looks nice, and nothing falls on the floor.    I do find them a little difficult when hanging turtleneck tops, tho........

Re: Hangers - recommendation please

We love our Huggable Hangers. I purchased the linen color from HSN over 12 years ago, when we moved to our house. I've never had one break. 

 

I've added more through the years and have given them for gifts. Great hangers. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

 Joy's hangers are THE best.They are worth the $$, esp. if it's on a special from 

the H channel.Target also sells her stuff.
