I have some new Ellie's I'm not happy with. (Patent black six inch platform heels with ankle and toe strap.) The straps are flimsy and the platform is painted black, which means the paint scratches off to show white plastic beneath. Not nearly as swell as the Tony Shoes (identical type) that they replaced. The fit is poor.
Mysterious because someone posted Pleaser and Ellie's used to be the same company, and then they split the business. ??? Why the difference in quality? I had a pair of Pleasers that lasted forever and a day.
Just wondering.

Two more were reasonable, one had those clear plastic straps that ripped, I repaired and then another dancer destroyed.
The other set has been so far, so good. Only three months in, my own complaint is the [toe strap? meta-tarsal strap?] is too rigid, after 4 hours of wear it hurts.
