I would like to buy one for my husband for his b-day and I have no idea-where to buy it - which kind to get and how much is a fair price for it- If anyone knows anything- please share!

They’re about $150 and up, found in any home décor store. I bought one too for a bday and dh loved it. since I moved, I have no room for it. it’s like brand new and can sell for half. PM me if you’d like to come take a look.

I have a really nice one that my mother bought my ex when we were married ... he left it here ... my son loved it too ... he used it after ... my kids never climed on it ... funny I think our closet door also blocked it when opened ...
when looking there are a couple of dif features like for shoes and change that make them more fun and personal in picking one out ...

wow, 150 dollars? thats pretty steep....I saw one at target.com for about 29.99 or maybe 39.99 and it was a pretty decent one too.

I once asked DH if he wanted one,he said what for. I hang up my clothes in the closet every night. For those whose DH or son loves them, why?

brooklyn, its for those guys who DONT hand there clothes up every night. my husband's clothing are usually on the floor near his bed every night and well, it takes his erev shabbat to clean it up....

Does he wear the same thing every day? If not then why doesn't he put it away or in the hamper. I couldn't take it if his or anyones clothes are just thrown on the floor.

brooklyn you trained your man well.
most men dont even know what a closet is.
and wouldnt understand the need to hang their clothing up.

I'm sorry for you, I guess that should be another gripe against your mother in law. Make sure your sons don't grow up like that.

my sis bought hers cuz both son and dh take out their clothing the night b4. so instead of it lying on the floor or the dresser, they have the valet to keep it on-much neater that way.

I wanted to get my husband one for Chanukah, but when he found out what I was up to, he told me not to waste the money Smile

He lies his clothes over the armoire, and that seems to work for him.

Well - after much ebay searching and googling etc. This is the one that I bought- http://www.ekitchengadgets.com......html

DH wears 1 pair of tzizis and pants for a couple of days in a row- so its a neat way to keep them out till he's ready for a fresh pair.

This sure beats the vacuum cleaner embarrassed

(yes I keep the vacuum in the room for this purpose embarrassed

) I never knew what a valet was untill recently.
