apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Just in time! I need an attractive standing coat rack. Does anyone have any other (possibly cheaper?) alternatives?

cute. but these aren't they days to be spending $200 on coat racks.

I'm wondering: When IS the time to spend $200 on a coat rack? I've long wanted a branch-shaped coat rack and this one is gorgeous. But I'm still a miser.

Never cared much for coat racks - They look sloppy and if you put too many heavy coats on one side and they tend to fall over.

Hooks on a wall are generally less expensive and work just as well if not better IMO.

I'm a coat rack fan myself. I have one in the bedroom for change of clothes - the key here is not to let it be a clothes pile, but a working piece. I also have one in the guest room, and my guests have often mentioned how they appreciate its use. I have also, like bepsf mentioned, used hooks - the over the door kind. They do work at least as well - if not better - IMO. And take up less space. I think I just like coat racks as a piece of furniture.

It's "Web site" not "website."

The Internet and the World Wide Web are capitalized. Also, it's a site on the Web, hence Web site...not website.

Oh, STFU!

TKS GHB 4 THA STFU!

$299 is definitely better than this one by hansgrohe:

(of course this is a towel rack but that's what I'll most likely be getting this one from West Elm for when it goes on sale)

I'm soooooooo disappointed - this item is sold out!!!

I've written to West Elm to ask about any possibility of future production.

If you love (and want) this item, please write to them:

Thanks!

It seems like no one has commented in awhile, but do you think this coat rack would go well with a cabinet like this:

?

Or is all that wood in one area too much?
