I love organizing my closets and try to make them look neat and classy. Pliio filers ( I purchased 40 of them) allowed me to make my shelves look super neat , control the amount of clothes on shelves and be able to take them out and put it back without destroying the pile or line them up like books on shelves or in a drawers.If you have a lot of clothes you might end up spending a lot of money on pliios but it is worth it. My husband laughed at me and now he enjoys how his closet looks like and how visible every shirt and sweater is.Pliio take a space (doubles the hight of folded garment) so be prepare to downsize your in clothing department.I am giving 4 stars because you will not be able to trifold a thicker garments . I fold sweaters just once and make sure that whatever is hanging beyond pliio has to be tugged . Unfortunately sliding a garment in and out of shelf is not that effortless in this case because of the a length . The inventor of pliio should add larger size or different design for folding thicker and longer tops . I hope I was clear enough to help you to make decision.First I must say tthat this product is sheer genius! Secondly I received a very prompt delivery.I would like to tell you my opinion and how I use this product. My husband works out of doors on a river,it can get pretty darned cold too. He finds it necessary to wear long john pants and tops under his clothes. He has a selection of silky weight to lightly woven weight long johns. Obviously the lighter weight material is the most comfortable. However I find that it's impossible to keep that's drawer organized,one breath and the clothes go everywhere.I have found this product to be such a boon, I am able to contain sets of long johns together, in an organized fashion. It goes with out saying that there is more space in the drawer as well.The only draw back as I can see so far is the limited amount of filers in the package. I personally feel 15- 20 filers would be a much better value. I was very impressed to see how well made the filer was, I did have some concerns about how sturdy it would be considering the materials used in the construction. I will amend this review at a later date to address that. All in all I am very satisfied with this product I would hope that a larger size filer could be produced to jeans. that would make me a very happy woman.Ideal for small and/or lightweight t-shirts (I'm size Small). Anything larger (but still in size Small) or with slightly heavier fabric means that the filers struggle and don't work, so I was disappointed there. Either the filers work fully or not at all - you can't have clothes that are only partly properly folded.The filers aren't large enough for hubby's tops, but FHE Group has commented to two other reviewers that a Larger size is in production. May I suggest that the filer's length and width are fine but the "hinge" should allow for thicker material - this would make it more versatile. I'd love to have filers for jumpers and cardigans.With three sets (i.e. 30 filers) to find uses for, my tea towels are now more neatly folded and are a uniform folded size - at last I'm proud of my kitchen linen drawer. I wish that a guest would somehow need a tea towel (or one of my t-shirts!) just so that they could see how neatly folded it is :-)My wife used this product to organize the sweaters in her closet, which it works well for. It allows for easier access, and her shelves look much more organized. It would be nice if they came in different sizes; she wears size XS - Small, so this product is too wide for some of her shirts to wrap around the sides; but it works well for her bulky sweaters. The price seems a bit high for only 7 filers, but it does its job and my wife is happy with the results!I'm quite happy with these. I have a drawer full of t-shirts. I don't know what's in there half the time. A pack of ten effectively doubled my space in the drawer. I can easily see on a color basis what's there.A few thoughts -- at first I was concerned the filers themselves would take up some space, but the tight wrapping makes up for it. They're also light. I don't think weight would be a factor in traveling. Size is compact. If you're storing them level so you can see and identify shirts they need about four inches in height.I did think I was ordering the stand these fit in. It's not in this pack. I don't think it's necessary if you're going to pack them in together. However, if you're not packing them in tight, I believe some of the folding panels would come open over time. Also, if your shirts look very similar, it might be difficult to distinguish them, as just a small area shows on any of the surfaces.Good product. I'm buying more of these.They laughed at me. They said I was crazy, they said I had O.C.D. ... but they're not laughing anymore now that my shirts are organized in a beautiful array while theirs are all wadded up and smashed together in the back of a drawer. I feel like I'm a celebrity and living in the future when I open my drawer and know exactly where every shirt is. I ordered one set, and am about to order another.Pliio doesn't seem to stress the fabric around the bend, which I was worried about initially.Seems to work best on T-shirts. On longer sleeve shirts the extra fabric makes the Pliio a little bulkier but still not bad.ProTip: When putting the shirt in the Pliio, if you want to be able to see part of the front of the shirt put the shirt face down, put the Pliio on the back of the shirt, and then fold it into the Pliio. This way the pattern/graphic on the front of the shirt will be facing you when you have the shirt in the drawer (If that was confusing just wait until you get a Pliio and then read it again).
