Review on Metal Hooks Jacket Purse Scarf by Ashley Ray

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great shelves but have your hot glue gun ready

I like this shelf. I bought it mainly for the wallet as I have so many. It currently holds my 7 purses, my breastfeeding pump (heavy use, insurance will pay for a strap lol), my coat, and a few other things I thought would be useful for. This is a great addition to my bedroom. However, after reading the reviews, I took some proactive steps and bought a hot glue gun (which I always needed) to glue the bulbs in place. Many reviews said they were annoyed by plastic lightbulbs flying around. No matter how many, I agree. I couldn't imagine. So during assembly I added hot glue to the inside of each bulb and it turned out perfect. I used a lot of glue because I'm not the kind of girl who likes to repeat work. This is a very good stance but I had to give 4 stars for the inconvenience of having to add that extra step. The manufacturer can fix this simply by making the bulbs denser and "stickier". I don't think that's the right word but still lol. I think if they were tighter where they could be hammered that would be a better stance. Nobody has to deal with a million tiny lightbulbs sliding across the floor every time they need to clean up. Even hot glue is easy to apply, but you don't have to put in the effort to get something working the way it's supposed to from the start. Unfortunately I have to give it 4 stars for the inconvenience BUT I really like the stand and I have to say that overall I am happy with my purchase. If I needed it I would buy another one, extra work and all. The price was right and I have to say that this is a really nice stand.

Pros
  • furniture
Cons
