I would have to say they are great for hooping along the edge of things but may present a problem for trying to hoop a jacket in the upper back region. You can allow areas of the garment to hang off to either side and in the front but not really any room in the rear of the hoop to allow the garment to hang outside the hoop window. As for Melco's correspondence, I would have to say that all salespeople are NOT alike. And that's all I'm gonna' say.
