I would like to use it as just a garment rack - I don't need the bags will it work for that purpose?

Probably would work, just remember that the bracket the bags attach to provide stabilization as well as support for the bags and if I recall the assembly process, connect the top and bottom poles. So you will have that middle section on your assembled piece with or without the bags attached.

I use it for a closet basically. I use one of the bags for dirty clothes and fitted a shelf over the back two thirds where the bags should hang to get more storage. Or you could just do away with the bags and hang long dresses or whatever. It was the perfect size that I needed, easy to put together and very sturdy. I'm still very happy with it.

Yes it would work but I would ask, why wouldn't you then just buy a good garment rack? This measures only 14" deep, average hangars are about 16" wide so now you will have to pull it away from the wall in order for your clothes to NOT be hitting the wall. Also, even without the bags in place, the frame holding the bars are 36 1/2" below the pole so, comfortably, your clothes would have to NOT be longer than that or they will sit inside of the bag frame. That said, I love this unit, it's quite sturdy and compact and has everything I was looking for in a "Laundry unit, not a "full time closet" but then it is definitely a matter of taste.

Yes, IF it is longer than 4 feet. You would even have enough room to look through the clothes on the rack.

It is actually quite a bit when completely set-up. You can fold the two outer parts in, if you don't need that much space. It might potentially hold a whole load of a smaller sized frontloading washing machine if you use the full rack and space it tightly (like I have). I am from Germany and quite used to using these racks and I love them. It saves a lot on dryer electricity. Nice thing is that you can also fold it up and store it when not using it.

I wouldn't use it to store anything unless you attach it to the door with the provided screws. The rack is flimsy and doesn't work with the over-the-door brackets. I returned the one we received.

Used individual see through garment bags: This was not a permanent fixture, although in my case it was strong enough to have been. My garments were hung on this rack in individual, clear garment bags, which I felt protected them sufficiently. For seasonal storage, my preference would be to use individual garment bags and have the assurance that each garment would be well protected

I can imagine you could make that work? you will probably need to figure out a way to harness it laterally due to the size of the bag. It is a good sized bag and you might find yourself fighting with it to keep it in place??? otherwise you will not be disappointed with the bag as a garment bag even with the lack of small gear pockets.

I use it for my laundry stuff and it is stationary. I'm not sure I'd trust it to be sturdy enough for what you want to use it for.

I do not believe it would work for that application. It is a small vac and I do not think powerful enough to work on the larger clothes bags.

I don't see why not, although if it were hanging straight down the clothes would all overlap and not get enough air to dry out. Also the rack would likely not stay collapsed hanging down like that.

I think it could be done. It's not a small rack, though, pretty tall, a bit heavy. I haven't taken it apart. I will tell you it is super sturdy. This thing will not fall over. I noticed that our Target store had the exact same rack to transport their clothes.

If you used some additional hardware you should be able to, but it would likely GREATLY reduce the amount of weight each shelf could support. If you wanted to support light weight stuff like stuffed animals or a few sweaters should be fine.

I don't think so. A rack would work better and would be a lot less expensive.

Yes I believe so. I use mine for storing clothes. I think if you put heavier items on the bottom shelf it could work, lighter items on the top shelves. I love my cabinet. Would buy it again. Got lots of compliments on it.

I wouldn't recommend it for that. Containers are plastic and rack is smaller than it looks in photo.

The rack is sturdy enough but certainly not heavy duty or anything. I have been using it for maternity clothes and probably have 30 items on it. If it's gets very full it starts to lean so I wouldn't putMuch more than that on it.

Yes. We used ours for the mattress and box spring (separately, so you'll need two bags).

It probably would but they do have bags just for that if you didn't need all the extra space. Good luck.
