Terrible Quality
I was so excited to recieve this item--I thought it was just what I needed, to get my chunky bracelets and necklaces organized in one place. And hanging in the closet! That's clever, I thought; and I ordered it.
Then I recieved it. First, nowhere does it say "Household Essentials," it says "Jewelry Solutions." Looks identical to the pictures on Amazon. Whatever. The real problem is that the quality of this item is truly horrendous--the manufacturer should be ashamed. The metal hanger not one sturdy piece of metal, but two pieces loosely connected, so that it is wobbly and unstable, yet without the benefit of actually being able to turn the hanger 180 or 360 degrees.
The cloth pull tabs have velcro sewn to them, which pulled apart from the tab on the very first tug (as a previous reviewer mentions); plus the velcro covers almost the entire inside of the tab, and would catch on any jewelry items that were fabric, or knit/crocheted.
The binding tape sewn around the edge of the organizer, especially at the top near the hanger, is sloppy, with raw fabric edges exposed. It is overall the worst that a Made in China (and it was) item has to offer, and looks, truly, like it might have been sewn by a child.
If we stop spending too much on poor-quality merchandise (and $17 dollars was way too much for this), then perhaps greedy companies will stop believeing they can pull something over on us--that's way I've taken the time to write this review. I cannot recommend this product, and can only hope that someone somewhere takes the initiative to create a better version of the same idea.
