5.0 out of 5 stars great product, eliminates the need for a dryer May 2, 2010

By E. Peterson

I have had this drying rack for a few weeks and am absolutely loving it. It is large and sturdy. It easily holds 2-3 loads of laundry, and keeps items separated and not touching so that they dry faster.

The frame is tubular powder-coated steel (? aluminum?), about 1/2 inch in diameter and very sturdy. The "lines" are very heavy gauge wire perhaps 3 mm in diameter; about the gauge of a chain link fence or a bit heavier.

Total, there are about 45 "lines" (they'll overlap a bit depending on how you set it up), each 22 in wide. A men's medium or large shirt will fit unfolded, but not an extra large. You can also dry huge things like comforters and sheets by leaving the "wings" flat and draping the items across the top.

Pros:
-Versatility! The "wings" can be set up at a variety of heights, either horizontal or diagonal. Or, you can leave the wings down and have just an a-frame shape.
-Super sturdy. I hung 8 wet shirts on hangers from one end yesterday and it did not tip at all. My cat walked around on the top of it, too (of course), and it stayed very stable.
-It's huge! No other drying rack can come close to the size of this one.
-Lots of places to hang stuff. If you use every line you can hang 2-3 loads of wash, more if you hang some things on hangers.
-Easy to fold and unfold, no assembly required. It's about 4 in wide when closed. Fits easily in my tiny laundry closet next to the washer.

Cons:
-Price. It's reasonable but could be cheaper.
-It's pretty big, especially if you live in a small apartment with not much floor space.
-The wires will probably leave lines in your clothes, but that's true no matter how you line dry.

I can't think of any more cons! I'm very happy with this drying rack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoying it so far. October 18, 2010

A light switched on with me and I decided to begin using my dryer less. I had a rack I used to dry sweaters on but it was too small to handle larger loads so I begin looking for something else. So, I came across this rack. I am really enjoying this rack so far. To be honest, I do not see how other reviewers on here can say that this thing can hold 2 or 3 loads. When they say 2 or 3 loads, I'm sure they do not mean 2 or 3 full loads. Generally I have been able to put 1 full load and 1 or 2 lighter loads of whites or delicates. I cannot see how 2 loads of heavy laundry i.e. towels, jeans, etc would fit on this thing but it is great for a full load of heavies and another smaller load of whites and/or delicates.

Update 11-8-11
Now using for over a year and I have become more efficient at loading it, so maybe I should reassess what I said above about loads, although drying times would be sacrificed. The rack has spent the entire time outdoors in all-season weather. A little rust here and there but it can definitely hold up to being left outdoors in the elements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy and Versatile February 18, 2010

My first rack arrived damaged; the plastic pivot joint was cracked. Amazon made the return easy and a new one arrived quickly. It wasn't packed any better, but it wasn't damaged. It's been used almost daily since. It's sturdy enough to support several pairs of jeans or large bath towels. It has room for lots of smaller items too. I have retired my dryer for the winter, saving money and adding desperately needed humidity. I even managed to wash my king comforter in the bathtub and eased it onto the half-folded rack to drain and then dry. A fantastic helper!
