Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have three retractable clotheslines installed on the T poles I erected in the backyard. The clotheslines are similar in design but represent three different brands, Butts (in the rear), Sunline, and the Crawford-Lehigh RC40 40-Foot Retractable Clothesline. All are retractable 40-foot lines, but the Lehigh design differs from most other retractable lines I've seen or used, and I've gone through many of these things. The mounting bracket for the Lehigh is metal and swivels smoothly, a feature handy during installation and tightening of the line. I think that the Lehigh has a sturdier design because the body of the durable plastic case extends to give firm support for the mounting bracket. On other clotheslines only two thin pieces of plastic support the mounting bracket. Also note when choosing a retractable clothesline that the Lehigh uses a two pronged hook on which to fasten and anchor the line. Other models use a larger circular attachment on which to wrap and anchor the clothesline. I prefer the hook design.
To get a nice, taut clothesline, pull the clothesline tight with one hand while holding onto a short segment of line pulled out from the line reel. Wrap the taut rope one or two turns around the anchor hook. Then pull slightly on the other end of the line. Let go and it will retract tightly into its protective case.
Finally:
Of the three clothesline mounted on our clothesline pole, we like the Lehigh best of all. It maintains its tautness during and after use, is easy to install, and is fairly simple to tighten.
In less than a month the metal rivets at the pivoting points of the hinge are beginning to rust. Buyers may want to coat those points with spray oil, clear nail polish or a sealer.
