Editor's Notes
March 18, 2020:
Selecting a headrest hook for your vehicle to add storage space involves sorting through the thousands of options to find the one that fits your needs. The first thing to consider is the material of the hook - plastic, metal, or canvas. All come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and weight capacities. This may be more of an aesthetic-appeal choice, so opt for the material that you want in your car, the one that best matches your interior and your style.
Another factor to consider is the design of the hook because some jut out or hang down at all times, whether you are using them or not, like the Viewm Hangers and the Pidien Organizer, while others, such as the i-Smart Seat Hanger and the Toplus Universal Holder, can be stashed under the headrest when not in use. If you are also using one of our tablet mounts or a leather seat cover, then you need to ensure that the hook is compatible for combined use.
Depending on your hanging needs, you may simply need an option that can hold your purse or a backpack, like the EldHus AB Ofspower, which holds about 18 pounds. If you have heavy-duty hanging needs, then the Mister Gadget Platinum may be the best selection because it supports as much as 75 pounds.
