Anyone have any experience of using these hookless hangers, have found a company who sell them for £27.00 for 10 - or £19.95 for 6 on Ebay. Does anyone know of anything better/cheaper? Many thanks. LIsa.
Hookless Hangers - are they any good and stockists

Just normal one's hooked one each way, with either a large draped towel over the top of them all to stop them bouncing off or a bugee cord hooked round the tops does the trick ..........
You can just carry things from the house then hook them on
Total cost .............. 0.00p

Thanks ... certainly sounds much, much better than spending £20 on hookless ones, will invest in a bungee cord instead! Bargain!
I wouldn't waste money on special hangers, just alternate.
The only things I personally have problems keeping on the hangers are trousers or jeans, they have a tendency to slip off.

Yes but some vans are worse than others for clothes jumping off. Our last one was a Bailey, with a wardrobe against the rear wall and no shock absorbers. Everything was in a heap at the bottom unless we used a piece of pipe insulation plus a bungee cord. Our current Swift with shocks and a more central wardrobe doesn't need anything to hold them on the rail.
SWMBO uses non slip material wrapped round the hanging rail to stop the hangers moving, also it stops the hanger jumping off the rail

As the OP has purchased a Swift caravan, she shouldn't have any problems then!
I will look forward to trying out some hangers to see if they do fall off during our test runs before our weekend away ... fingers crossed all will be well!
Can't see the point in paying for a solution to the problem. A little ingenuity is all that is needed, not money!
Happy caravanning!

As items hung in a wardrobe whilst travelling raise the centre of gravity and sway about they could contribute to marginal stability. Why not just lay the items on one one the beds whilst travelling and hang them up on arrival? Aids safety and your pocket!!
We like others have had this cloths problem, also like others we have used all sorts of devices, all I would add is if you forget to put them on before you start out ,we found the usual heap on the floor. Looking at the hangers with the clip on the hook my first impression was they would do away with me having to remember to fit cord etc. Expesive yes but peace on arrival at site was worth a try. We have used them and only put every 3rd hanger with the clip on it ,like that the 10 supplied was more than needed.
Problem solved, I now am entitled to a large glass of medicated water once we are set up.
