I purchased one of these in May this year, to replace on of the same type.
Both units suffered a breakage on the plastic clip that the line wraps around to take up the slack.
This is my second of these washing lines. The first lasted me about 10 years before the line just stretched too much and broke. Up until then it did a great job – so at 1.90 per year I would say that it’s good value.
Our last washing line didn’t survive its second winter.
The plastic became brittle and it fell apart.
This item however seems to be a lot more sturdy and well made,I think it’s gonna last.
This product is strong – really good length of line – stands up to all the weathers (where we have ours situated). Would buy and have done from this company again.
Super easy to install and use. Sturdy and well made. Super neat little contraption that means I don’t have to look at a permanent washing line or the eye sore that is a whirly one!
This is about my second item, the first arrived with all of it’s accessories missing even the installation leaflet. Returned for a replacement, thankfully this one arrived with everything in the package. It looks like a well made product, haven’t used or fitted it yet, old line still hanging in there.
I was hesitant about getting one of these as I thought it might fall apart quickly. It’s actually pretty sturdy though and it’s WAY better than a rotary washing line which takes up space and looks really ugly!
I have attached this next to some additional metal cord anchors that I installed as I don’t trust the plastic cord anchors on the base of the box.
It’s so easy to install, just a plate on the wall that this slots onto in seconds and then a couple of hooks to attach the other end to. I tend to take mine back indoors after use to avoid sun damage to the plastic over time.
It works perfectly and I only wish I got one years ago, my old rotary washing line was an eyesore and took up so much room!
Easy to use. Don’t put the 2 lines close together. Try and put them at an angle to each other for better air to dry washing. Also get a clothes line pole to stop sheets touching the ground. Easy retractable washing lines and doesn’t look an eyesore in the garden. Very happy.
I’m not sure what to write about this as it is doing what i expected it to do. I have put the washing line up the garden and it has been used many times. It has not slackened and remains sturdy. I retract it when the nephews come over and play football and when we have people over and sit out in the garden, and then it is easy to extend when I want to use it again. This works as advertised and as I need it to, so 5 stars
Very easy to install onto a wooden 4×4 post the old line was hooked onto. and will be easy to remove during the winter months when its not going to be used.
the lock feature of wrapping it around a tab at the bottom is simple but effective, as long as you gauge how much you need correctly.
overall its ok, a simple design that hold the washing niely, doesn’t seem to stretch too much when hanging the clothes on it and using a pole to raise it up. time will tell how durable it is.
Much better and sturdier than my old one, but still worries over the plastic hooks on the end of the lines. I don’t trust them to last so I tie the line itself in a knot around the metal hook instead. Otherwise excellent.
I have bought 4 of these and it looks hard to gauge if it is good or bad for that reason..Good because when new they are superb..but like many previous reviews, the underlying hooks fail, due to general wear and tear and weathering. So, If you are happy to spend this reasonable amount for 3 good years use..highly recommend..but if you want something more long lasting..look elsewhere.
Great compact device when you don’t want to leave your line out if it isn’t being used.
You fix the metal bracket to a sturdy wall/fence post etc. Then the hard plastic covered line clips onto that so you can detach it if you need to.
The line is in side a spring loaded coil that unwinds and rewinds with ease.
With over 30meters of line so you can get almost 3 full wash loads done in one go. That’s a bonus for me.
Have been through 2 of these now – they are great for about 3 years, but when used outdoors the plastic cleet underneath decay over time and eventually snap rendering the line as broken and unable to be fixed. It would be even better if they were made of metal to avoid this from happening. In all other respects this is a great product .. just a shame I am on number 3 now.
Good product but it’s difficult to keep it really tight, if there was a mechanical way to tighten it I think that would be better. There are only plastic bits that stick out at the bottom that you can wrap the wire around, and even then after putting your watching on it it still sags more then I would like.
I absolutely love this line, I was able to get several wash loads out without taken up any garden space, unfortunately 2 years in and one has broken But well worth the 2 years
I installed this easy enough and mounted the reel. I noticed that the clips when retracted don’t fit the body of the reel very well so it’s not water tight. My previous one the clips fit the body well. I use this in Spain and we get mucky rain, leaves everything covered in the sand from the sahara! When I returned the line was dirty from water that had gotten in! So, I now take the line down when we are not in Spain! A bit of a pain but not the end of the world.
