Tools and Hardware Reviews of Crawford-Lehigh RC40 40-Feet Retractable Clothesline
Customer Review: Product As Advertised
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very good product, although it appears to be cheaply made and would be very easy to make yourself; however, the product is accurately represented, and for $12 you can't go wrong.Customer Review: Retractable Clothesline
Summary: 4 Stars
I wanted to keep my backyard clothesline but ... when not in use ... I wanted to see my garden not the clothesline. This product is working quite well.Customer Review: Retractable Clothesline Works Well
Summary: 5 Stars
Like others have said, the anchor bracket underneath works much better than the old cone shaped things on the side. With this arrangement you can pull the line tight by pulling it toward the anchor while you pull the line on the other side of the anchor toward the reel hole.Customer Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY - Get old-fashioned clothesline rope and hooks
Summary: 1 Stars
I have tried every brand of these retractable clotheslines. They are all cheaply made, inferior products. The locking mechanisms don't work. The hooks are too weak and break. The inadequate, soft-cotton/poly lines coated with vinyl sag and need to be knotted again and again to restore a modicum of tautness, so that the retractable feature is rendered useless. I have the line extended a little more than 25 feet, but it is supported in the middle by a line attached to a large wooden beam. The support hasn't helped. There are materials available that would work better, but that would reduce the profit margin and the ever-on-going repeat sales. Tomorrow, I will install low-sag clothesline rope and sturdy eye bolts. Perhaps a retractable clothesline is a great idea, but the execution by every manufacturer (they all appear to be made by the same factory) is shamefully poor.Customer Review: SURPRISINGLY STURDY!
Summary: 5 Stars
We have been using retractable clotheslines for years, but needed to add another line. I ordered this on Amazon because I needed to qualify for free shipping, so I wasn't expecting much, even though the reviews were mostly positive. When I got it, I was surprised how heavy and sturdy it feels. Even my brother, who was grumbling about installing another line when we already had three, was so impressed, he wanted me to order another one. The only negative is the plastic loop at the end, which is too small, but my brother worked it out, so it's not big a deal.
