Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid 3F21 Configurations Hanging Canvas Suit Bag with Cedar Inserts, Natural
Customer Review: Well made, but comes up short
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this to house my suits and jackets. I made an assumption, which is my fault, about what the product description led me to believe. It says it's for hanging suits, but it should say for waist jackets and short suits. I'm not a giant (I'm actually 6'3"), but none of the suits and jackets I intended to place in these bags hang freely. All are now bunched up and folded. The description listed the dimensions (36" L), but like I said, I went off the written description. Don't make my mistake. Now with that out of the way, here are the bullets:
Pros
- Strong material
- good seal where hanger comes through
- Strong zipper
- ample thickness to hand more than one item
- Great price for construction and materials used.
Cons
- Site glass too small and only on one side, disallowing viewing of
other items if multi packed.
- Mislabeled as suit bag. It will not allow an average suit to freely
hang. Should have used garment or shirt bag.
Customer Review: No Longer Best Value for Money
Summary: 4 Stars
EDIT [June 2008]: Now that they raised the price from five bucks to eight bucks, I no longer stand by my 4 star rating. This is now an average bag for the price. The "For Dummies" bags are a good alternative in the price range. The eight dollar Rubbermaid canvas bag is sturdy and opaque; the eight dollar "For Dummies" canvas/plastic bag Storage For Dummies: Suit / Jacket / Garment Durable Canvas Storage Bag is sturdy and transparent. Most other garment bags on Amazon are either more expensive or flimsier. I wish I could edit/adjust my star rating down to 3 stars, but I can't. (Note: the Cedar Insert is so tiny that it took me months of use before I noticed it.)Customer Review: Better then expected.
Summary: 4 Stars
Although the image is incorrect, I much prefer that the suit bag came with an entire canvas front versus the vinyl. I seem to have bad luck with hangers or transportation ripping holes in the vinyl. The canvas is much sturdier and still has a window at the top, right so that you can see what is inside.
There IS a cedar insert in each of the suit bags (at least there were in my three that I ordered). It's just enough to do the trick. If you unzip the bag and right towards the bottom there is a small cedar insert inside the bag. Overall great buy for the item that you receive. I'll be buying another three shortly!
Customer Review: A quality bag for the money
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a quality suit bag for the price listed on Amazon (I paid $7.99). The material is durable enough that it appears it will last for years to come - unlike many suit bags made of plastic that tear easily. Other reviewers are misinformed about the cedar inserts; the bags DO have the cedar inserts, they are sewn into a little pouch near the bottom of the bag. I would give this product 5 stars, but it's a little bit short to truly be considered a bag for an average man - I am 6'0" tall and my suit jackets could use another inch or so in bag length to keep from hitting the bottom.Customer Review: functional suit bag - fits regular cut suits just fine (40R)
Summary: 4 Stars
Functional suit back. Heavy canvas feels solid and well made. Wide enough to put one or two suits/ jackets in per back without crowding.
I wear 39R to 40R suits and jackets and had no problem with the length. Once you get the suit in position (shake the bag down on the hanger) there is an inch or two at the bottom. Caution if you wear long cut suits these are probably too short as many other reviewers have commented.
