This is the first thing I thought of when I read the thread title. I think I read that memoir in middle school. |
| IME, the wood ones look the best and last forever. They are bulky though, so in my closet, they're mostly the velvet kind. I don't like them as much because they break, but they do occupy less space. As with a PP, the wooden ones are in the coat closet. They can handle the weight and look good. |
Same. I do have some wooden hangers for heavier items though. |

The velvet ones break too easily, the wooden ones take up too much space (and I have a large walk in closet), and the basic plastic ones are to slippery.
I use the Crystal Suit Hangers from Target. I'm sure there's a shorter way to post the link, but I don't know what it is. I use these for hanging everything https://www.target.com/p/4pk-crystal-suit-hangers-room-essentials-8482/-/A-11740824?sidd=1854S&ref=tgt_adv_xsp&AFID=google&fndsrc=tgtao&DFA=71700000012732799&CPNG=PLA_Storage%2BOrganization_Priority%2BShopping_Local%7CStorage%2BOrganization_Ecomm_Home&adgroup=Storage%2BOrganization_Priority+TCINs&LID=700000001170770pgs&LNM=PRODUCT_GROUP&network=g&device=m&location=9007770&targetid=pla-2238071912158&ds_rl=1246978&ds_rl=1247068&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgdC6BhCgARIsAPWNWH0GIIjZ9a5VuDBEuFlyjJoGw-E-5nG_yIqlwNuNzwuWqBEz-_WfzMAaAmvYEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds |

I have tried them all, and I only like the white plastic ones.
I do have the heavy wooden ones in my coat closet though. |
| It wasn’t prohibitively expensive for me to replace all the random plastic and wire hangers in my house with Ikea Bumerang (wood) hangers. It’s one of those things that gives me a small dose of satisfaction, like I really have my life together, lol. |
| Wood DH makes them whenever I need them. |
Same |
| People who have velvet ones you like, have you found sturdy ones? I prefer velvet for nonslipness and for not making weird bulges in shoulders, but they are constantly breaking. |
Same! The other kind leave "nipples" on the shoulders of shirts |
