Needed some hangers in a hurry last night, so I went to a local store and almost purchased some wooden hangers that looked almost exactly like these ZOBER high-quality hangers. But I picked one up at the store and could tell immediately that it was poor quality. The hangers were so rough that I got a splinter, and the pants hanging bar on the bottom was loose. I briefly considered how long it would take me to sand and finish each of the hangers so they wouldn't snag my clothing or my hands, or if I could con my husband into doing it. (NOTE: These poor quality hangers were NOT the ZOBERs I bought from Amazon.)Instead, I went home and ordered these ZOBER hangers from Amazon. I ordered them about 8 pm and they were delivered before I awakened this a.m. (Amazon delivery people are the best!) I was a little uneasy about ordering them because they looked so much like the poor quality ones I had seen in the store. And out of 8430 reviews on Amazon, two reviewers rated them poor, citing the rough finish and shoddy construction. I was so happy when I opened them and found them to be very good quality, smooth finish, attractive wood, and solid construction. One thing I would mention, they are listed as suit hangers, I suppose because there is also a provision for hanging a pair of pants. For a really good suit, I would go with a hanger whose shoulders actually curve forward to help retain the shape of the suit jacket shoulders. The contour of these hangers is more in a single plane, rather than curving forward. I think these are more appropriate for hanging casual jackets, sweaters, pants, shirts that one would want to keep from wrinkling, or fragile fabric that would be damaged by a wire hanger or cheap thin plastic hanger. Oh, one more thing—these hangers certainly look nice in my closet after the mish-mash of cheap hangers that had been breeding in my closet.I recently replaced my old plastic hangers on all of my dress shirts with these. There are great! They look great, are sturdy, not overly heavy and reasonably priced. Already purchased my second set.I just received my order, and sent in the email to secure the warranty. I'm glad I did because two of the hangers are broke - right out the box. One of them has a warped lower bar which makes it unusable. And the other one's lower bar isn't even attached. So, while I'm glad I got 18 hangers that I can use. I'm unsure of the durability and long term use. Instead of these lasting at least 3 years, I think its probably going to last closer to 6 months. I definitely wouldn't buy again. Instead I suggest going in-person to a reputable place.God bless you. The only Issue Is the lower bracket easily comes apart, two have dislodged exposing sharp tiny nails, this occurred from removing a standard size pair of jeans. I readjusted the part which I will have to add wood glue to reinforce because I do like the look.Good material and perfect color everything is well made in general!Well built. Seems to hold my heavy articles of clothing very well. Not the lightest hanger I have used, but anything lighter would not be as strong.Thanks so very much!I ordered 60 of these (two boxes of 30 each). I have ordered them before and they are a good hangers. When I received them, they were shipped in two boxes with 20 hangers in each box. My math may be rusty, but that does not add up to 60 hangers. I notified Amazon and they said I had to contact the manufacturer. I did. They said it is an Amazon warehouse/shipping issue (which it is) and suggested I return the hangers. I did. Note to the wise, do not order the 30 quantity option. If you want 60, order 3 boxes of 20, not two boxes of 30. There is no such thing as a box of 30 from this manufacturer.Can hang anything on them as they have such an awful smell!!okay for priceThe hangers look well enough, good finish, nothing bad to comment on aspect and functionality.However, the smell.. i can only describe it as rotten onions, and in a closed space like a closet it would make all my clothes stink like a garbage truck.For now i let them outside to air out. Almost a week later and there's still a slight smell to them. If it doesn't go away completely in another week i will have to return everything.My advice? Buy elsewhere. I don't know where this product got so many good reviewsSo I know my review is maybe a bit of “first world problem” type thing.Not being a student anymore and living in a decent apartment now, I decided to do a project where I sell all my old mismatched hangers and replace them with a nice matching set. I wanted good quality, sturdy and consistent (if I ever need more I should be able to reorder).First of all the colour (cherry) seems a bit more red than in the photos. Not really a problem, BUT this hanger “cherry” colour is different to the “cherry” skirt/trouser hanger from the same company. Kinda defeats the point imho. I realise they don’t advertise them as matching but one would think they’d make the colour shade consistent between product lines…Second - I never used them but out of the box I can see immediately they are not sturdy. Slightly pulling on the trouser bar makes a cracking noise and I can see connections are loose. Can almost guarantee these will not last long.Finally the price is not good at all, it seems. I honestly had no idea how much good hangers should cost, I just knew I wanted “good” ones and was prepared to pay whatever to achieve this (as it’s a long-term purchase). This is definitely overpriced as you get Chinese/cheap quality for the price of a somewhat “premium” hanger. I don’t know if it’s maybe Amazon overpricing things, but I now know that I can get very good hangers from a store directly at about £0.7-£1 each if you buy 20+ at once. You can get really premium ones for about £1.20-£2 but the quality will be NIGHT AND DAY compared to these. Literally just Google “premium” or “luxury” hangers and you will be SHOCKED at how relatively “cheap” you can get them (made in U.K.) and how much Amazon ones are overpriced by.So if you’re not too fussed about price and are just looking for real good quality hangers that will last a long time, please avoid these. If you are a student and don’t know much about hangers I recommend you go to Primark instead of purchasing this stuff, honestly.Having made do with ancient wooden, and flimsy plastic hangers for yonks, just happened to search Amazon for some replacements. And Lo!. Replacements, there were - tons of the b------s ! Wading through the customer reviews, most packs seemed to have some sort of blemish in construction or wood quality. But not these. 20x was a good amount for me, as was the price. Delivery was prompt, and first inspection of the product was most pleasing. Well constructed, beautiful lamination, and finished off with a fine corrugated plastic sleeve for the trouser bar.Well impressed. (and you get a choice of colours !). Good job people - take a bow !
