Retractable Clothesline - Portable Heavy Duty Indoor and Outdoor Washing Line - 45 Feet PVC Retracting Clothes Line with Wall Mount Hang The Wet Dry Clothing Laundry - Easy Installation (Grey)

The item is as described and works as stated. It is small enough that it basically disapears when not in use. The negative I see is in the hardware provided. Do yourself a favor and use decent hardware. The screw heads twist off or strip out easily. The anchors are not suitable for outdoor use. The Shepards hook works, but is a pain. Drill a pilot hole first if installing in wood and save your hands. On a very positive note, the unit does a pretty flat 180 degree so you can easily have it connect to one location when the weather is good and another location when there may be rain. I have a solar shed that is 65 feet long. My unit is mounted on the front of the shed and runs to a fence for good weather. It runs from one side of the solar shed to the other for bad weather as that is dry in the rain. For the price, I am happy with the unit even having to supply decent hardware.

My dryer decided to stop heating so after I did some research and figured there’s no way my handyman could simply test a few components without taking the whole dryer apart, I looked on Amazon and found this handy retractable clothesline and a couple of other drying items and set up a Dr. Seuss laundry layout (my kid’s description) in my back room until I can get a new dryer. This line works well. The line is a lot longer than my room and the instructions tell you how to make the line strong and taunt. I was even able to hang towels on it. I was able to get it overnight and use it first thing in the morning.

Nice and long-the string did get stretched out after one summer of use-- we left it out in 2 harsh New England Weathers so eventually the plastic casing cracked at the base where it is screwed into the plate that mounts to the wall. This is Plastic, VERY easy to install and use, heavy duty thick cord. holds tight when you wind it up around the base to keep the rope stiff and taught when hanging up heavy wet stuff

I bought this same one 4 or 5 years ago and it was wonderful. One of the big storms recently got ahold of it and tore it up. So I bought it again last week, same one that I had before. It’s very strong and lasted a long time.

It works great.

I wish I would have read other reviews before ordering. I wanted a cord that retracts, but also one that has a ratcheting mechanism to keep excess line from being released from the spool and provide a taught line. This one does not do that. Instead, we're supposed to wrap the line around the lug on the bottom to keep it tight. This setup does not work well at all. The line will go slack very easily. I would return it for this reason if I hadn't waited too long. Alas, I am outside of the return window, so stuck with it.

We bought this after saying goodbye to our worn out rotary clothesline. The idea of a retractable line makes a lot of sense and seemed to be just what I was looking for. Installation very simple. The reel mounts to an available flat surface with a couple screws and the hook for the line on another surface. Simple, easy and quick. I installed the hook on my shed only 20 feet or so away and a second hook in another, more distant location. When you go to use it you connect the line to your hook, and then you need to loop the line around the built-in post on the bottom of the reel to keep it from releasing more line when you hang something. The problem I’ve seen is this: if you only loop the line around the bottom of the post once, it won’t hold and the line will sag. So you need to loop a second time around the post. This works fine keeping the reel from dispensing line - and it minimizes sag. When you are done and want to reel the line back up, however, the twice-looped line is caught and doesn’t want to release easily. You have to pull hard to get the line loose and I can see where the line is getting damaged from being so tightly squeezed together. I anticipate the white outer layer of the line is going to rip in a short time, and THAT will cause a major issue. Holding at 3 stars for that reason. If I’m wrong and this holds up better than I fear I will up the rating.

Good quality.

Impossible de dérouler le fil. Câblé bloqué dans la boîte

We can hang 2 sheets and lots of other stuff without the need for a prop. We have used approx 10 meters of the line it retracts perfectly. only concern is the like stretches a little when you load it up with heavy wet cloths towels I would buy again

ho trovato esattamente quello che volevo , se il filo fosse un pò più resistente sarebbe perfetto

I really love this retractable clothesline. It’s sturdy, easy to mount, and the line extends smoothly without sagging. It holds the weight of clothes well and retracts cleanly when you’re done, which keeps the area looking neat. It’s a great space-saving option for both indoor and outdoor use, and overall a very practical, well-made drying solution.

This is ideal for garden to put up line its easy to put up ideal for washing line
