Favorite clothing hangers?

[Tap]

I need new hangers for my bedroom. Any favorites out there?  Poll is multiple choice. :0)

My favorite are the nonslip kind, which is what I assume you mean by flocked.  That’s what I meant when I voted for flocked, anyway.

Thank you. I clarified it. Flocked hangers are the fuzzy ones that have become more mainstream the past 10 years or so.

I love these. In fact, my goal was to replace all my hangers with this kind over time. Thanks for the reminder!

I like the plastic tube hangers, especially the big tubes. I don't like the tube hangers that have notches in the top to hold items with spaghetti straps. Those cause my clothes to stretch funny above the shoulder because they get caught on those notches.

I also have some crocheted wire hangers that are hand me downs from MIL. I like those, too, but DH doesn't.

I bought a couple packs of the fuzzy ones a few years back and don’t like them at all! They break easily and are too wide for many of my shirts. I use them now for sleeveless shirts only. Everything else, I prefer cheap wire!

I have the flocked ones right now.  They are too wide for some items, and it's actually hard to get some things off them.  I've broken a few of them.  I do like that they take up so much less space in the closet, and I like the uniformity.

The tubular ones are fine, as long as they don't have those notches on top a PP mentioned.  I prefer the very heavy ones so they can used for pants, too.  They do take up a lot more space.

My very favorites, though, are the old-style padded hangers with satin, like these: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=padded+hangers&ref=nb_sb_noss_1.  I love being able to hang sweaters and delicate tops or dresses on them without stretching out the shoulders.  They take up way too much room for anything else.

not this exact set.  But this basic shape type.  Except for a heavy coat or specialty item.  (These are too expensive.  They should be about half that cost now, I think)

Tube hangers w/o notches. The ones with notches are evil.

We have so many different kinds of hangers here; there is no perfect one.

Flocked hangers are OK for some items, but as has been said, they are too wide for some items / sizes.  They stretch my daughter's clothes.  She likes "Spruttig" hangers from IKEA. 

I think the best ones for my clothes are the clear plastic "crystal" hangers that stores use. Maybe nicer stores?  Not the thin ones walmart uses.

Wire hangers are good for nothing as far as I can tell.

Huggable hangers ( aka the flocked ones). HSN usually runs fantastic deals on the official huggable hangers.  HH are thicker than the knock offs and don’t break as easy. The amazon brand version is just as good but just a bit thinner.

Flocked hangers so nothing falls on the closet floor.  I got mine at Ross very inexpensively. Walmart has them too.

I really like these.  They have a nonskid silicon pad on the shoulders and cross-bar to prevent clothes from falling off, plus the side-hooks, and also a swivel-neck.  I've been slowly changing all of our hangers over to them.
