Review on Vlush Gray Wooden Coat Rack: Freestanding Holder With 8 Hooks For Clothes, Hats, Scarves, Handbags, And Umbrellas by Heather Gonzales

Very pleased & am going to buy another when I decide which color to pick. I bought the brown one & it is not as dark of a brown as in the photo but still is a dark brown with a little bit of red tone in it. Packaging was fantastic. I was a little worried initially as what turned out to be the outer box was dented up, but the inside box was fine. All the parts are wrapped in bubble wrap and identified with alphabetical numbers. The directions are pretty good & the hardware is in a red bag with a huge tag on it. The little round wire circle with one end over the other is a type of spacer that you put between the bottom screw head & the washer. That is not clear in the written directions but is drawn in if you look closely. Probably added later. Also what initially looks like a square of cardboard in the hardware bag is a pop out circular additional cushion button for the bottom center of the base. (The base has other cushions on the bottom already installed.) It did go together easily & I hate assembling furniture. I am not sure how much weight it will hold but I bought it mostly for lighter jackets & hoodies. I figure when I have to wear my parka I could just throw it over the top vertical post if I need it to dry off. Beats the heck out of throwing my parka over the vacuum cleaner which was my late husband's standard joke that I only used our vacuum as a coat rack! It is real wood as far as I can tell except the base is that manufactured wood but it looks good. There were a couple minor imperfections in the base's finish but nothing that anybody will notice. The base is nice & heavy & I was looking for a flat base so as to avoid tripping. It does not look cheap either & the price is very reasonable for the quality of the product.
