Customer Review: No grease
Summary: 5 Stars
I just got my Whitney 4000 clothes dryer rack. It was ordered from AAA Discount Home Furniture. It was clean, no grease. It was also well packed and shipped by Fed-Ex. I am very happy with the product. BarbaraCustomer Review: Not Ready for Use
Summary: 2 Stars
I had an aluminum Whitney out door clothes dryer that lasted one year. Aluminum arms and pivot bracket failed. So I decided to go with a smaller unit with steel arms. As others mentioned, there was grease everywhere and the entire unit, lines inlcuded had to be degreased before it could be used. It is sturdier than the aluminum and once it has been cleaned a couple of times it will probably be fine. The line was very loose when I got it so I had to tighten it up once it was up. This also revealed that there is grease inside the bars and as I pulled the line through the holes, more grease came out on the lines. I used Orange Degreaser and this removed the grease but, plan on investing an hour cleaning before you try and use this. For the amount of work you have to put into this to get it ready to use, you should insist on free shipping or be sure that if you return it you can get the shipping costs back as they pretty high !
Update: Shop At Clares who was the seller of this product, not the manufacturer or shippper, did respond and to their credit, in their shipping information to Whitney,they asked that a new unit be sent to me at no charge. They also requested, in writing, that the unit be checked for grease prior to shipping. The new unit arrived yesterday and had more grease on it than the first one. Clearly Shop At Clares does not have any control over the manufacturing and I can not fault them for what is clearly a probelm at the manufacturing level however, as I have mentioned to them, they should drop this item. There have been numerous complaints about grease on these units. My recommendation; while the steel is suppose to be much stronger, stick with the aluminum and ge gentle.
Customer Review: ONE SMALL ISSUE...
Summary: 3 Stars
This clothesline is fine in all ways. One issue I did have was that it needed to be cleaned! There was grease on the poles, arms and also on the lines - not easy to remove. And why should I have to be cleaning it anyway??? Perhaps the grease was to keep it from rusting in storage(?). I have no idea.... But it really had to be cleaned before it could be used - no point putting clean clothes that are going to be blowing against the poles, hung on the lines, etc., only to be getting the grease on them!Customer Review: Outdoor Parallel Clothes Dryer

I purchased this item as a gift for my daughter.
All though the box was in rough shape when I received it, I was very pleased with the quality of the item.
My daughter can't wait till spring to start using it.
