Nice quality hangers
I was reluctant to buy another brand's velvet hangers on amazon because reviews mentioned that several hangers came already broken, or broke while attempting to hang a shirt on it for the first time.
I noticed these amazon basics hangers and knew I'd want to give them a try, not only for the lower price, but also for the great quality I associate with amazon.
All 50 arrived in perfect condition. No breaks, tears in the velvet, or damage. I spent about 30 minutes rehanging my clothes on these and dropped them multiple times in the process and had my cat (and self) step all over them with no problem.
Pros:
Easily hangs tank tops, strappy dresses
Very thin hangers save space
Lightweight and aren't straining my old house's closet rod like those clunky plastic hangers
Visually consistent and appealing
Metal top can be rotated for garment to hang in either direction in closet
Cons:
None so far
I gave it 4 stars because it is my first day using them, so I'll report back in a few months about the quality. The reason I came back to this page today was to order another box of 50.
Update 4/21/14: I've been using these hangers for the past 2 months with no issues. I hang dry all of my tops and dresses directly out of the washer, and the wet garments have not affected the velvet on these hangers. Another pro I've noticed is that the metal can be rotated, which is great because my boyfriend can't seem to hang anything in the proper direction, so I just spin the top around and everything faces the same direction in my closet.
Update 7/20/14: I've had these for 5 months with not a single issue. Not one broken hanger. I upped my review to 5 stars. Buying another set. I will not stop until everything I own is on one of these.
Final update 3/4/15: It's been over a year. Can't tell the new hangers from the old hangers. Boyfriend that hangs garments in the wrong direction is now fiance that hangs garments in the wrong direction. I still swivel the top.
