Product Description

Amazon.com Review

A lightweight and collapsible drying solution, this rack from The Clothes Line features coated hardwood dowels and simple tool-free construction. The rack is suited for wet gear, winter items, swimwear, and delicates that are unsafe in the dryer. Its numerous rods total 27 feet of drying space, and the top rack lets you dry items flat if need be. With their hardwood centers and stout plastic coating, the hanging dowels are durable and do not snag clothing. Simple assembly is required with this unit, but clever color-coding lets you see at a glance how to put it together. Between uses, it folds flat for storage. Fully expanded, it measures 42-1/4 by 29-1/2 by 14-1/2 inches. --Emily Bedard

This is very poor quality. One of the rods broke after only a couple of uses. Fortunately, I also bought a sturdy chrome model for about $12 more and that one still serves me well.

This review is from: Whitney Design 05111 RTA Folding Wood Clothes Drying Rack (Kitchen)

total piece of junk! Assembly is easy in concept, but difficult to actually do, because the construction and workmanship is so utterly poor. I bought this thing and one of the wood legs was nearly rotted through, but i figured i'd rather just wrap some tape around the stupid thing to keep it working. But after one use of holding actual clothes, that bum leg broke all the way through. So i called amazon for a replacement, which they sent no problem. But they made me return the old one.. which was a huge pain, because clearly it is not designed to ever be disassembled. Several of the legs broke when i tried to unplug the rods, and it all barely fit back in the box. And of course i had to take it to the post office myself too. So all this effort and headache for a lousy $10? Forget it.. get a better one from BBB for $20.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible Product, not worth the 10 dollars..., October 4, 2004

This thing is horrible. It does not work correctly. It is instable, some of the dowells were the wrong size when I got it, it falls over. Horrible, horrible product. DO NOT BUY. Spend the extra 10 bucks and get a nice one.
