Good, not great
It does what it is supposed to--holds many ties.
Great item!
Works great!
Glacial Speed
I celebrated two birthdays waiting for the tie rack to complete one revolution. It is much slower than previous models.
Motorized Tie Rack
Most clothing rods are small now a days and made of metal. Previous model had an adaptor for this. This did not and I had to buu material to make the adjustment.
Works well once you get to stay
Very Good device
Mounting was a challenge although eventually got it done.
Awesome product!
A great gift for my boyfriend who needed desperate help organizing his ties! I was surprised at how many ties this rack could hold - and the belt holder was a nice addition. The light is very useful in a dark closet. Will definitely recommend to others!
Love it!
Very nice for keeping ties and belts organized. Easy to put ties back on rack. A little slow though.
Great product
Bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it.
Not a fan...
Couldnt handle weight of ties. Motor literally died before last tie was placed on rack. Returned within a day of arrival.
Great Product, Fast Shipping
The motorized tie rack is super easy to use and install. We received the package within 2 days, in great condition. Very satisfied with this purchase.
My Husband is not happy
I bought it for my husband for his birthday. He is not happy with it. It moves too slow!!!!
Great gift!
Good value. It was a gift for my husband. He loves it!
Motorized Tie Rack received for XMas
Love it! May buy another one if I get more than 64 ties in the future.
Works Great
It is just what I was looking for what more can I say it works great and I use it every day. It is easy to use too :-)
not bad
Its a nice design but it fell when I was installing it & now makes a weird noise & moves kind of slow. Just seemed a little cheaply made - but reasonable for the price paid.
The best on the market
I had a tie rack from another company and I was not happy with it in many ways. I decided to try another unit and the Sharper Image is the one I settled on. There is no comparison to the usefulness of this tie rack. I will never own another brand.
Moves too slow - takes too long.
Moves too slow
Great Gift!
My boyfriend loves this!
Unfortunately, it doesnt fit on our clo
Do determine if it will fit your closet rod.
I Like it, Great price Great product
Holds all the ties you will ever need
It is a little slow but no biggie
I like it, wanted one for years didnt
get it for Christmas so bought it myself
Merry Christmas to me
Hubby Loves it!
My husband was thrilled to have a tie organizer once again. He had one similar to this before and it broke, therefore, leaving ties in a heap on the floor. He said this one seems more sturdy and certainly does the trick!
Ok but not great
Rack mounts easily and is stable even when holding a full load of ties. Motor is slow despite changing out batteries.
Great well built tie rack!
Product is as good as advertised. It moves slow but is effective in holding and rotating a big selection of ties.
good purchase
This rack really makes it easy to keep my ties organized. Best tie organizer I have every tried. First one arrived defective but the replacement is great. I just hope it holds up over time because I really love it.
Does the job but too slow motor
I have had other motorized tie racks and this one is very similar. Only problem is the motor is sooo slow.
Great product!
Purchased this for my husband who thinks its great and so do I. Keeps his ties neat and organized. He was truly happy to receive this gift.
Perfect Gift
If you have a lot of ties in your closet this would be the perfect gift for your loved ones.
Best way to keep ties organized
Have had one of these for many years. Visited our son and saw his ties on coat hangers and falling all over, knew the perfect gift and spent many monthe looking for it again. When we found your new website I ordered it and he is just delighted to receive it. Said it is a world better than his old methods.
tie rack
This was a fathers day gift for my husband and he likes it very much. I cant really tell you any more because I dont use it.
Replacement
I had one of these for years but it was recently damaged. I bought this one to replace the old one. My only complaint is that the motor revolves the ties at an extremely low speed. I wish it revolved a little faster.
Great Tie Rack
The tie rack is very nice and holds a lot of ties. I like how the it moves the ties around slow enough so you can see which one you want. It even has a little light that helps you see.
Wish Id found it long ago
Makes tie storage super easy. A little difficult to install perfectly level, but that doesnt seem to hinder operation at all.
not as fast as my previous one......
I had to replace my old one that I had purchased many years ago because I dropped it & broke during a move. Luckily Sharper Iamge still caried it, but I am disappointed with the speed it goes around. if it is full, it takes forever to run through choices for ties!
problem solved!
Thank you for this handy solution to my husbands tie collection. He can now see all his ties at the push of a button - and I dont have to see the same dreaded striped tie all the time. And it gives ME more room in the closet!
Easy to install, works well.
I organize my ties by color and this system makes it easy to choose a time. A little slow, but arent we all in a hurry to get dressed?
Works great
Compact
Great Idea
I bought this for my husband to help organize his ties. Its great! The 60 hooks allows for plenty of space for ties. The light is very useful and I love that its so quiet. My only complaint is it doesnt fit snugly on our wire-style closet rod so well have to improvise a bit.
Not as good as Sharper Image previous ti
I own the previous Sharper Image tie rack product which was much better than this latest version. The main problem is most closet companies use hanging bars that are metal, in an oblong shape and this latest tie rack does not attach to that type of bar and contains no kit to make the attachment. It is very slow and pressing right turns the rack left etc. Just seems like a product not well thought through.
Great product
Great way to store belts and ties!
Too slow!
This was a replacement of one that was about 10 years old. It is a nice design and fits well, but it moves around very slow. Other than that it is a very good product.
A Minor Disappointment
I have purchased three motorized tie racks from Sharper Image in the past twenty years. The second was a major improvement from the first. A stability extension section kept the device firmly in place and the tie movement was fast, sharp and easily reversed. The latest version of the rack, however, has taken a step back in quality. There is no extension section and the movement is slow and clunky.
Replacement parts?
The belt that holds the ties broke, rendering the entire thing useless. I think it would be relatively easy to replace it, if only I could find a new belt. But, alas, I guess youd have to buy an entire new unit -- I dont think so. Ill go back to the old reliable pins on a board type of tie rack -- no batteries required.
Quick Glance
My husbands ties are all organized and with a touch of a button, he gets to see his choices.
I would not purchase this product again.
I had purchased this product from Sharper Image years ago; the old one lasted almost 10 years. The new one is not as well constructed as the old one, and the controls are not as handy. I purchased two of this product; one worked out of the box, the other one had to be returned as it would not work. A handy product, but noisy, and not as well made as the older product. Nothing else like it on the market, though.
Greatest thing since sliced bread!!
I surprised my husband for our anniversary with California Closets and decided to buy this instead of going with their tie rack. He loved it! I couldnt believe he had more ties than it holds so now well have to buy another one! All his friends gravitated to it when they saw his closet! A great buy!!
great home for ties in my closet
Great for viewing and housing large tie selection. This replaces old noisy creaker that never worked as efficiently.
Like It
I thought it was made of metal but it is made with plastic not very good for the money it should be constructed out of better materials.
Why didnt I get this sooner!
The ability to organize my ties is great. I will probably need another rack soon, and I will definitely be getting one more of these, or a newer model if available. The down side is when its full, it is difficult to get to the belts in the middle. The belt hooks should also be a little lower. The hook is just a little too close to the bottom of the rack. Otherwise, if you have ties, like I have ties, This is The Rack to get!.
Real nice looking and awesome gift idea
This was a Christmas gift for my husband, I love it and I am sure he will too. He loves things like this!
Husband loves: Despite set-up woes
The first gift my husband removed from the original package at Christmas was this tie rack. There was alot of wrestling and some choice words used when trying to install.You would have thought his favorite team was losing a game.
Great about it- very quiet, the light is not intrusive if others are sleeping while the tie fanatic is searching for the select tie du jour.
Easy to use, can also place belts on interior. Holds large number of ties.
Not so great: Well, depends on your closet space and closet rod. Here patience is truly a virtue.
If you have an older closet rod, could be very challenging.Ours is wooden and a bit thicker than the modern day closet rods. (Home built in 1940)Also of importance-- how much space you have behind closet rod and above closet rod. If you have a very small closet, with not much space to maneuver both the placement, level balance and tightening from both behind the tie rack and from the top, then this could be a very frustrating endeavor.
Once finally installed, the el
The final missing piece to my wardrobe!
It was the final component I was missing to store my belts and ties! No more belts and ties all over the floor and drooped over chairs. Now I can store everything in one compact location. It makes finding a belt or tie in the morning a PIECE OF CAKE. The controls and setup are ridiculously easy. The rotating tie clips and the lights make it the perfect device! So glad I found it.
there are no negatives !!!!
my son is a teacher and has been using this since it was first sold. he wears a different tie everyday, which is why we bought him this second one. nothing keeps ties as organized as this tie rack !!!
20+ years and still working!
What can I say when you purchase an appliance in 1990 and its still working, no repairs, just batteries? I bought this when the Sharper Image had stores in the malls. I understand they got hip to the costs of square footage and now offer internet only.
It does take a little time to rotate, and the decibal level is a little high, but other than that, have to give credit where credit is due.
great
I love this tie rack. It is so convenient.
Attractive but a little slow
I have nearly 100 ties, and with two racks I was able to group them by color content. Hopefully these racks will last longer than the manual pull-out racks that failled in a few years of use.
Fit like a glove
Worked very smoothly put strained once it was completely full. In hind sight I could probably use two.
Nice Tie Rack
This is a nice tie rack. I expected it would move the ties more easily and quickly around for selection. A bit disappointed in that. I also expected it to feel a bit more sturdy coming from Sharper Image. Otherwise, it does hold the ties and belt - and it does rotate the ties for selection.
easy to install
THis unit works and is easy to put up, but it is slow and does not have an automatic turn off light (like the one we got about 10 yrs ago which finally conked out). It will do.
Functional Product...
The Sharper Image Tie Rack requires a round clothes rod for installation.
Also, requires a wedge of some type to balance tie rack once installed
on the rod. The motorized carousel moves slowly. However, holds several
ties.
Just what I was looking for.
Like the speed it brings the ties to you. Saves space in the closet and the light helps in the selection. Do not like the placement of the belt holders but if you have room where the ties go the belts fit great there.
Great idea.Cheaply Made
Great idea however it is very cheaply made. Better if it had some metal in it to stabilize it. Mostly plastic. For 1/2 the price it would be worth it but [$] was steep considering the quality.
Great product
I now have 3 of these tie racks for my immense collection & they are easy to use, practical & durable.
So far, so good
I purchased this tie rack to make selecting my ties easier. My previous rack was mounted on the wall at the back of my closet causing me to have to push and separate the cloths inorder to select a tie. Most of the ties would slide off the pegs with the slightest touch. Now with the motorized, lighted rack the ties stay on the pegs and I made a plaque with a short pole and mounted it on the wall outside the closet and it works great.
Poor quality compared to previous
I bought this to replace my old Sharper Image motorized tie rack. This one is of poor quality compared to previous versions. Its slow and and it doesnt run smoothly. The design is poor and it feels and looks cheap
Great Gift
He just loved it I had looked around and could not find what I wanted Then I went on Sharper Image and there it was I read the reviews which were helpful and were very happy with the purchase
Great product!
Holds a ton of ties. My husband is on his second one. He wears a tie EVERY day so uses it every day. My son now wears a tie every day as well and they started to accumulate SO I went right to Sharper Image and ordered one for him for his birthday.
Terrific tie rack
My husband is a tie aficionado. He has two of these tie racks in his closet. They are daily tools that are critical. Every aspect of these tie racks are perfectly functional. Bravo!
Extremely functional
Easy to install. Holds lots of ties and belts.
Has reduced clutter in my closet.
Its OK, not as good as the older one
The product works as described. However, it is slow and the motoe weak. I had an older, maybe 10 year old, version from Sharper Image that was much better.
Functional, handy and well worth it
This is a great product. If you have a lot of ties, it is a must have!
Great Product!
I bought this as a gift for my brother and he loves it. Easy to use and helps keep his ties organized.
Very satisfied!
It is everything that I had hoped for and more. Very happy
Fine Product!!!
Well, it was a gift and the person kept their ties in a box. NOW all of them are at arms reach, easily accessible and lighted if needed as they move around the carosel. Need to get one for myself now. LPR
2nd time for this type of rack
This is my 2nd Sharper Image tie rack. I love that it holds almost all of my ties and takes up little closet space. However, this newer model is half as slow as my previous rack. I hope Ill get used to the speed, but I anticipate frustration when Im in a hurry.
Tie Rack is great.
This product has really simplified my life.
Great Tie Rack
It was a great gift. The recipient loved it
Strong & Stable
Gift ot husband..More then generous in strength & quantity of ties/belts you can hang on tie rack
Adequate
This replaced the old version from 7-8 years ago. The new version does not hold as many ties and although it uses the same battery power (4 Cs), it is ever so slow when filled. Very disappointing. That being said, it has been functional for a month. well see how it holds up.
Very Nice Package
Very attractive & doesnt take much space. A great addition to any wardrobe.
Great device
Well made and organized. Perfect for what it does.
Excellent closet addition
My husband has had a Sharper Image tie rack for years and it is still perfect. He got another one (different brand) and it has not held up. Worth the extra few dollars to get this one!
Turned a beast into a beauty
My husbands closet was immaculately organized except for his ties which were a mess. With the tie organizer his closet is perfectly organized. It is easy to use, and allows him to select his tie within seconds, instead of fumbling for minutes trying to find the perfect tie for the day.
the best thing i discovered
I bought this item for my son who has ties hanging everywhere. The ones that he put on a hanger always wound up getting wrinkled. Since I purshased the product not only does he not mind hanging his ties up anymore but they are convient to access and wrinkle free. The only thing i regret is not buying one sooner.
Motorized Tie Rack
Keep all my ties organized is important and this rack is a good way to keep 60+ ties together and easy to get to.
I would buy this again for another perso
great Christmas gift
Great Product
1) Very easy to install (top comes off and snaps onto any size curtain rod with attached screws)
2) Motor is quiet but fast
3) Only con is the batteries (requires 4 C batteries)
4) Dont know yet how well it will hold up or how long the battery will last, but just out of the box its wonderful for the price
Slightly Disappointed
The mount is only made for a full-sized round closet bar, not the wire rack type. So although it does still work, you wont be able to secure it as it was intended. Also, the ties move really slowly, it takes about a minute to get a full rotation.
Motor is Slow
I like this tie rack, as it fits well in the closet and displays the ties well, but the motor is way too slow to move the ties around. I had a previous version of this tie rack, and the motor was much more powerful.
AWESOME!!!
Was exactly what it said it was. Love it.
Perfect for organizing lots of ties
Looks great - light could be a little brighter but overall great product. My husband was thrilled.
Prefer the old model
My husband purchased two tie racks several years ago and I purchased this as an addition. The model doesnt fit in the closet. The new style, featuring the attaching parts on top of the rack as opposed to on the bottom, make it impossible to attach it to the dowel rod (because the screws stand out too high between the dowel and the closet shelf). If you have a large amount of space between the dowel and the shelf you may be able to fit it, but its bulky on the top and didnt work for us. I will be returning it.
Amazing product!
One of most useful product for a very reasonable price!
Slow, Flimsy
my Sharper Image model of several years ago finally gave up the ghost, and I needed replacements. This Smartek unit is lighter and flimsier. the rotation is unusably slow, there are hesitations in the rotation, and the screws that tighten it up on the clothes bar (not shown int the pix) protrude too far to fit under the shelf in my application. Any of these is a deal killer, and all together... well.
