Review on Whitmor Hanging Garment Bag Organizer by Christin Ridder

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The thinnest garment bag I've ever seen unfortunately

I bought three of these bags hoping they would look like other bags I've bought in the past. They are incredibly light and soft. The biggest disappointment is the metal frame that holds the bag in shape and hangs clothes. It's a very light wire (think of the wire used in cheap hangers) that bends easily. I was moving clothes from one of my current garment bags, but had to stop when it was about half full because the new bag just couldn't handle the weight of the heavy coats. Likewise, the plastic body is incredibly thin and light. I have been very careful not to stretch or tear it because I see that a little force and I will have a hole. I'm sure a hungry mouse would easily gnaw a hole in the plastic. All in all, these bags are a disappointment. They were cheap and that was good, but I'm pretty sure I'll have to replace them in six months or a year. One of the problems with buying things like this is that the descriptions and photos all shine, but without knowing the thickness of the materials it's impossible to know how it will work in practice. I gave this three stars because the price is so low but you get what you pay for. I need two of these to store what I keep in a better quality bag and I'm not sure it will hold up over time.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Makes angry
