A one-line retractable clothesline that pulls out to 40 feet and winds back into a compact high-impact plastic housing measuring about 8.25 inches wide and 6.5 inches high. It works on a deck rail, a patio wall, a basement joist, or a laundry room, and holds heavy loads without the sag of a fixed rope.
A single line extending to 40 feet crosses most yards, decks, or basement spans in one run, which is enough for a load of sheets or a row of towels. Because the line lives on a reel, the span exists only while it is being used and is not left stretched across a walkway the rest of the week.
A quick lock at the base of the housing grabs the line at whatever length has been drawn out and holds tension there, so wet jeans and towels do not pull the line steadily longer. Releasing the lock lets the reel take the slack back in without hand-winding or coiling.
The reel sits in a high-impact plastic case just over 8 inches wide, light enough to mount on a wooden post yet solid enough to take a knock from a ladder or a patio chair. The small case is also what allows indoor use, since it reads as a wall fitting rather than laundry hardware.
Folding bamboo drying rack with 11 dowels and a flat shelf for sweaters, opening to 29.25 inches wide.
Collapsible steel tripod rack standing 64.5 inches tall, with folding arms and slots for hangers indoors.
