Would your H use a standing valet set?
Re: Would your H use a standing valet set?
H always drapes his stuff over a little stool in our room, I thought perhaps this would be nice, plus 5 years is wood.
I am going to get him this for Father's Day.

He doesn't do the ones on key chains.
DH has one. I HATE it and refused to let him put it in our room when we moved.
I figured I was being tricky and this would get him to hang his clothes in the closet.
Yeah, no. Now he drapes them on the FLOOR.
It wouldn't get used in my house. But I think I've seen my husband in a suit twice in 11 years.
But I don't understand why you would pay $150 for something that is essentially a closet but standing in the middle of the room taking up space?
Maybe if we were a suit-wearing household I'd understand...
H gets up at 5 something every morning for work (always wears a shirt and tie, sometimes a suit) but gets ready in his office in an effort not to disturb me, so I think this would go in there as a place to hold his clothes for the day.

lol I love it. Does he ever wear suspenders? On the right man, they can be pretty sex-ay.
no, he's a belt man.
i'm trying to talk him into a 3-piece suit, but he says he's "not that kind of suit wearer." i have no idea what that means. considering the man i married wore nothing but t-shirts and khaki cargo shorts.
So the vest would be over to the top for him?
Three piece suits are very lawyerish/bankerish to me. Perhaps the trick is getting him to try one so he can see how fantastic he looks.
I think the idea is that the guy puts the next day's outfit on it overnight. It's just a way to set it out nicely without wrinkling.
Oh okay. That sort of makes sense I guess. My husband leaves his dirty pants on the coffee table so I don't see him planning ahead...
My H uses his to hang the suit he just took off so it can air before going back in the closet. He LOVES it.
