Tools and Hardware Reviews of Acrylic Plastic Foldable Earring Screens
Customer Review: cheap, broken, but somewhat useful for a few earrings
Summary: 2 Stars
With a collection of so many earrings scattered in several containers, I need a way to organize them all. This isn't it! It only holds studs and a few of those for pierced ears that are shaped the right way to hang on the rather wide dividers. I suppose some of those old clip-on pairs would work on this too, but I don't use them anymore, so I don't need to display them with the current ones.
On the other hand, this item is cheap, cheap, CHEAP! Mine arrived with the inner package slightly dented, and when I pulled the item out of that package, the hinge of one panel was completely disconnected from the next panel's complementary hinge parts. When my husband tried to set the two parts parts back together, the other hinge holding it snapped and broke--cheap plastic!--and the panel completely broke from the other three. Now I have a single panel and a separate three-panel set. Very cheap! On the other hand, even the single panel can stand while I'm working on it, and I can fold it and store it in a drawer with the three-panel set. But this item, in one or two pieces, isn't strong or good-looking enough to be displayed! Still, I can use it till something better comes along! And it would cost me more to return it, so what the heck!
Customer Review: Wonderful product!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was thrilled when this came in the mail! I have been late to work before trying to find a match for an earring in what used to be my disorganized cluster of earrings in a box. And I also would forget that I even owned certain pairs of earrings. It was so much fun to dump them all out onto a table and arrange them onto this product. I think the organizer works very well for all kinds of earrings for pierced ears, regardless of the type of hook or clasp. (I do not own any clip earrings so I am unable to give feedback on how it would work with those.) The organizer folds together upright to save space without crushing any earrings. It is light weight yet sturdy enough to hold lots of earrings without toppling over. When it folds out, you can see every pair of earrings you own! Although the organizer itself is attractive, it is colorless so that your eye is drawn to your earrings rather than the product. My husband was very impressed with the clever design and commented on how pretty it looks on my dresser. I told him this was the best 20 bucks (price I paid with shipping) I had spent on something for myself in a while! I highly recommend this product.Customer Review: CLEARLY VISABLE AND PROTECTIVE
Summary: 5 Stars
I love my clear folding screen for several reasons. First off, when i pulled it out of the box it had more weight to it than I expected from a plastic product. Second, it was far more sturdy than I expected and there was no slop or play where it hinges together. Third, when you stand it up, it doenst have to be somewhat folded for it to stand stable. You can have it expanded in a straight line and it still stands stable. Fourth, and what I love most is the fact that you can have it completely full of earrings and it will still fold up without damaging or crunching any of my earrings. And if you save the box it comes in, you can still use it for traveling or for safely storing your earrings. However, when I do this I put a strip of tissue in between each fold just so my earings dont scratch each other. And fifth, I love the clearity, the shine, and the simplicity of it.
I was so pleased with the first one that I ordered that I turned around and ordered two more.
Thanks to this product, I can disply all the earrings I make quickly and easily.

Customer Review: Works but not as well as it could
Summary: 3 Stars
I ordered this earring holder knowing it might not work for what I needed but there isn't much else out there. When it arrived I discovered one of the other reviewers was correct -- a lot of my earrings didn't fit. If you wear dangles the ear wire usually isn't long enough to fit through the holes. If you just hang them over the open slots they aren't very secure. I was hoping to fold up the device and lay it in a drawer. I was also hoping to use it on a trip I'm taking soon. The device is clearly not going to work for either of those uses.
Not willing to send it back, I put my thinking cap on and tried drilling some of the holes larger. That seemed to do the trick. I can get most of my dangle earrings in place except for the bulkier ones. Those keep it from folding up neatly. So I would say it will work for 2/3 to 3/4 of my earring collection.
I'll keep the device and use it but only for sitting out on the bathroom counter, which wasn't my original intention. If I find something better, this thing is out the door.
Customer Review: Doesn't work with hoops
Summary: 3 Stars
I like this earring holder, and it was relatively inexpensive. It works very well for my french-hook earrings. Post earrings are OK, but it's a little bit tricky to pull them off without tipping over the whole thing. However, it's a huge pain to hang up any earrings with the clasped french-hook (the kind that has a hook, but also a back that snaps into place). I basically ended up leaving them unclasped and draped over the edge - it looks like they'd fall over easily. I couldn't get any of my hoops onto this thing - not the hoops with the post-back, hoops with a snapping back, nor the hoops that make a perfect circle. I have big ones and small ones, but I couldn't get any onto this thing.
THE GOOD:
-Works well with french-hook earrings
-Inexpensive
-Works with post earrings
-Folds up so it can be easily moved.
THE BAD:
-Doesn't work with hoops
-Isn't particularly attractive
-Hinges squeak
-Doesn't work well with Leverback hooks
