Tools and Hardware Reviews of Household Essentials MD-61 Five-Line Indoor/Outdoor Mini Retractable Clothes Dryer

Customer Review: Buyer Beware Do not purchase
Summary: 1 Stars

We have had this clothesline since May and all of the lines (strings) have broken. I would not recommend this product at any price. I would have to hang one item on each of the 5 strings because if I hung more on it they would break. The last one broke today! We are going back to the old fashioned string your own clothesline on the poles we put in for this unit.

Very unhappy with this product line. I would like to have known that the lines are not meant to hold anything of any weight. We used it for our bathing suits, towels and light sheets and it did not hold.


Customer Review: Cheap design, does what it needs to do
Summary: 2 Stars

This product is made very poorly. When you pull it out, the lines all retract at different speeds causing some very tight lines along with some very loose lines. Also as a tip, make sure that the line is level or a couple inches higher at the retractable end. This way when the line pulls on itself, it doesn't pop off the wall you were trying to mount it on. All in all for the price it holds your clothes and a decent amount also, but I feel like these definitely won't last with the cheap build quality. I would recommend spending more money on something that will last.

Customer Review: Don't waste your money!!!
Summary: 1 Stars

What a waste of money. I bought it to save on electricity and instead I get to go buy some drywall compound and repaint... plus my clothes are hanging over the back of all my dining room chairs right now. The drywall anchors that came with it promptly pulled right out of the wall as soon as we put any clothes on it whatsoever (leaving quarter sized holes behind). Plus, the first time we have ever tried to use it, the cord started fraying. I would've been better off buying 10 eyehooks and just stringing a clothesline whenever I needed to dry clothes. It would've been cheaper too. I read the other reviews before I bought it, but I thought for 10 bucks it couldn't be all bad. It is. Keep your money. Buy a latte. Just don't buy this!

Customer Review: Not worth it
Summary: 1 Stars

I had bought one just like this years ago and the quality was much better this one is not worth $5.

Customer Review: Poor Quality
Summary: 1 Stars

I paid over $20.00 for this at OSH and really regret doing so. This product was made very cheaply and poorly. The line is flimsy and not strong enough to hold more than 2 pieces of clothing without sagging. The line on mine is even tearing now. The knob that is suppose to keep the line tight doesn't work properly and the retraction will not pull the line back in correctly or evenly. Now I can't even pull the line out at all, meaning I can't use the darn thing at all anymore. It lasted me less than a year and I hated using it the entire time. Wish I would have invested a bit more money for something worth it.
