Efficient clothes dryer rack,
I used it this weekend to dry 12 articles of clothing including blouses, slacks, jackets. All linen, and all hung straight out of the washer. Everything dried in less than 24 hours–less time than they took when I hung them all over the laundry room. My only comment is that other buyers not try to move a full rack of clothing to another room. This was dumb, and the pole did separate into its two parts. This is not a complaint, it’s recognition that I did something foolish. I then removed the clothing, put the rack back together, and moved it to the other room where I rehung the clothing on it.

|Sturdy and easy to put together,
This item is lightweight yet sturdy and easy to put together. We travel with this and it fits nicely into one of those long tubular cases that the folding canvas chairs come in. It comes in two pieces which snap together and then both parts just pop open. I would highly recommend this product.

|It does the job, but is not very sturdy,
I am a work at-home mom doing my best to save money by conserving energy while doing laundry. With little kids, there’s a lot of laundry, and in the winter, it’s hard for me to dry clothes and cloth diapers outdoors.
I was eagerly awaiting this product and sadly, I’m not completely enamoured with it. It’s okay and does the job, so I give it 3.25 stars.
It’s flimsy, so I’m worried that my husband’s heavy clothing will tip it. It’s perfect for my kids and my clothing. I don’t take the clothes right out of the washer; I damp dry, then hang them. It’s worked perfectly so far.
My other negative, which is a biggie issue for me, is that not all our hangers fit the holes on the arms. Sigh! I have chunky hangers and hangers with metal loopy things that are too big for the holes. I don’t have any dry-cleaning metal hangers left. So my kids hangers and some of my other skinny hangers fit it. Bit of an annoyance, so I find myself using the shower rod to hang dry some of the clothes instead of my new toy!
My final issue is that it doesn’t fit in my bathtub, which was the other reason for my purchasing this. It’s a little too wide by about 2 inches, and just won’t fit. I tried. So it sits beside the bathtub in our small main bathroom. I’ll try to get a picture.
Overall, it’s okay. I’m sure I’ll have more use of this in the summer. I’ll update this review then.
Please note that these issues are specific for me, so you might not have the same problems as I do.
Thanks for reading my review.
