Title: SAVE YOUR MONEY - Get old-fashioned clothesline rope and hooks
Product review: 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.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
