I'm very disappointed in the quality of this product. I had two of these retractable clotheslines about 15 years ago and you could adjust the tension of the lines. I don't seem to be able to do that with this one. When I hang my clothes on it, the lines droop really low and then when I retract it, they tangle and I have to pull it in and out multiple times to get them retracted. I would not purchase again.

Excellent quality. Retracts easily when not in use. Not only does it save on electricity but you get a wonderful fresh air smell on your clothes and linens without the added use of chemicals.

Unit was damaged in shipping. I did not realize it until I prepared to install it. I have reported the problem to the manufacturer.

The product has held up very well with the sun beating down on it day after day. It does the job, but I wish the lines were further apart. I use it at our lake cabin and really load it up with heavy wet towels from time to time. The lines stretch out with weight, but not enough to cause a serious issue. The biggest draw back for me is that the lines are so close together…about 4 inches between them. I mostly end up using two of the four lines for that reason. Items don’t get completely dry because they are sandwiched together so closely. That is the only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5.
