Outfitter vs ItemRack vs ClosetGnome

So I have been reading thru the various forums trying to figure out the best choice for a wardrobe switcher and don't seem to be any closer to an answer.... I am just looking for the simplest, easiest to use and set up. Any input is appreciated!

Outfitter comes with everything you need all in one for outfit management, and it's real simple to figure out. It's my personal favorite. But you're not going to know which one is YOUR personal favorite until and unless you just install them, one at a time, and give them a whirl.

Yep. Because I like ItemRack. ItemRack also allows you to create a "rack" for quick gear changing (basically buttons on the screen for an equip slot with popouts of everything you can equip in that slot).

Agreed. I personally like ItemRack because of the pop-out and it seems to be the easiest to configure.

I use Outfitter. I've never tried ItemRack, but outfitter has the same feature with the popouts on the Character screen to equip any item in your inventory to that slot, but what I really like is the automatic switching that can be set up (so every time you mount up, it automatically equips your carrot, your riding crop, and your boots with mithril spurs...and unequips them when you dismount) and the quick click changing an entire set of gear with the mimimap button menu. Just set up a set and give it a name, right click the minimap button and a list of all your sets will come up...just click the one you want to wear and viola.

Blizzard also does this, hold <Alt> while hovering any item slot in the character window.

That's not entirely the same though

ItemRack allows you to put for example your tabard slot somewhere on your screen
and swap tabards in one click for championing (without opening the character frame)

ive used both itemrack and outfitter, and ive got to say itemrack 100%. outfitter always glitched for me and alot of the features didnt work correctly, and was always so high maintenence. ive been using the same version of itemrack since patch 2.4 and it still works fine in 3.1

I've previewed all three, but in the end I stuck with ItemRack. It's a lot more appealing to me for some reason and it has just been working very well.
