I'm looking for a travel hanger to take to the gym with me... my searching led me to stumble on to EasyHanger from Hangers Nest
The hanger. A simple idea that someone is improving on and proof positive that design can always be refined. Basically- you can fold the wings of the hanger down to allow it to fit into tight necked garmets and the like. You can do this all (evidently) with one hand.
In addition to the cool product- the demo's there are what really sell it. They have multiple clear demos that show several ways to use the product. You really get an idea of how cool it is based on the demos. I first thought it was battery powered (raising and lowering). I'm still not sure how it works or how strong it is- but there's some reassurance in the FAQ (claims it can hold up to 11lbs)
Design always makes compromises and finds a balance of many factors. It's interesting to see if this is a better mouse trap or if it's too cumbersome, bulky, ugly, etc to really be of use. The hanger as we know it is successful for a reason (price!)- but it's nice to see innovation in simple things.
