Huggable hangers - copies ebay

Slinky_Malinky

Hi all,

I have some genuine huggable hangers and need some more. Thane Direct sell the real ones on ebay @ £57 for 50 grey hangers plus extra bits that I don`t really need. There are others on ebay which are obviously not the real thing but only cost £25 for 50 hangers. Trouble is these are black and I really wanted the grey ones

I think I could live with the colour not being right as long as the quality is good -I don`t want them to be breaking, shredding the flock finish or dye coming off on cloths when drip drying.

PLease has anyone bought these cheaper hangers? Can you vouch for the quality or is it worth paying the extra for the real thing?

I have tried using normal cheap plastic hangers bought locally but my clothes slide off them easily, maybe because I am in plus sizes atm so the necklines are pretty wide.

Thanks,
Slinky_Malinky

Sorry title should read `copies on ebay` but I cannot amend the title.

I've seen those hangers in Home Bargains if you have a store by you, not tried them myself so not sure of the quality but they look fine.

I have these and haven't had any problems. They feel sturdy and none have broken. You can also get them in Primark and TK Maxx (the latter being a bit more expensive).

skyllo, can you remember how much you paid for them please? I have found some on Wilkinsonplus for £2.68 for 5 or two for £4 which is pretty good and free collection from store.

I can't remember exactly but I imagine it was about £2 for 5 - I can't see myself paying much more than that. Definitely less than £3. 10 for £4 sounds like a good deal.

I wear a lot of blouses and cardigans and they used to never stay on the hanger - that's a thing of the past now!
