Title: Stopped working after a minimum number of uses
Product review: This is called a retractable clothes line for a reason: Because it retracts. Or is supposed to. Its retractability was the big appeal for me, since I don't want to have a clothes line strung across my backyard except for when I need it. I used this clothes line 10 times or less, and then it stopped working. It suddenly stopped retracting one day, out of the blue. That amounts to about $1.50 per use, which isn't the end of the world. But why can't companies make good, durable products anymore? We waste so many natural resource manufacturing and shipping what amounts to lots of crap nowadays. Oh well, I can still use the clothes line, but instead of retracting the line I have to coil it up by hand and hang it over the unit that it's supposed to retract into. If you don't mind doing that yourself, buy away!
