I give a 5++ for the drying rack, 0 for the installation hardware and instructions (the wrong instructions were included, it had the instructions for the more basic model) I absolutely love this!! But after reading several reviews, I tweaked it a little bit. (Attaching photos- they will probably make more sense than my explanation.) Here’s what I would recommend (I’m not a construction person, so take it or leave it): 1. Don’t waste your time with the anchors / screws they include, either get some good (longer) wood screws, and make sure you’re drilling into studs, or get some heavy duty anchors. 2. Several people complained about it leaning downward when extended, causing clothing to slide, so I put a couple of washers behind the plate for the 2 lower screws (slightly ugly, but also easy to hide). The plate (after tweaking) is actually angled slightly outward at the bottom which lifts the arm just enough so that it’s level when extended (but not level when closed / folded). 3. If you’re OCD (like myself) spend the extra $10-$15 and get the upgraded one that folds up vertically. I have purchased both, (the upgraded version wasn’t available at the time) and the upgraded one is definitely more aesthetically pleasing. 4. The hooks slide around really easily (too easily), which is kind of annoying. Haven’t thought about how to fix that. But it’s much less frustrating if it’s level, based on people’s reviews. 5. Because it contained the wrong instructions, I wasn’t sure about a few things. There’s a little lever, (I’ve included a photo), which unlocks it to move horizontally. I thought there was maybe a lock to move it vertically, but it turns out it was just stuck. Once I used a little more force, there was no problem moving it vertically. Overall, it’s a great clothing rack. It’s heavy duty and there was no issue when I put wet clothing on all of the hooks- it didn’t sag at all, and no concern for it bending or breaking. It’s a great size when extended, and folds up nicely. It is well hidden when not in use. It was fairly easy to install, it took me about 40 minutes to install two of them, and a good portion of the time was spent rummaging around trying to find the correct size washers, better screws, and stronger anchors. That’s all, good luck! Read more
this does as it says. it is strong, durable holds very well. functions nicely. looks great. nothing dries quickly though if you load every hook. even with T shirts. it saves space. its good quality though for small hand wash loads. Read more
Great product especially in small spaces for line drying. Love that is folds up and becomes compact, thus, hidden. Read more
This drying rack is a great option for small spaces. I hang a lot of my clothes to dry and wanted a rack that wouldn’t be in the way while not using it. The three fold out bars makes it very versatile in whatever space you have. We used screws to put it into the sheetrock with one side of the screws being into a stud. It seems sturdy, even when using all the hooks. Not sure how gluing it into a different wall type would work, and whether the glue would hold if all the hooks are used. I didn’t give it five stars because the installation instructions weren’t the easiest to use and we weren’t sure what to do with the bar that fits at the bottom of the rack. Read more
Very sturdy. Perfect in my laundry room. Holds everything I need per load. Adjusts perfectly for my needs. Assembly is east. Just make sure you hit a stud. Read more
This is a nice way to hang clothes and not have something out all the time. It’s super sturdy and folds up neatly when not in use. Great quality! Read more
I needed something exactly like this since our new home has limited space in the laundry area, and this wall-mounted drying rack has been the perfect solution. It was easy to install, and I really appreciated that it came with all the screws and hardware needed—no extra trips or guesswork. Once mounted, it feels very sturdy, and the folding, retractable design makes it incredibly convenient. It folds flat against the wall when not in use, which is a huge plus in tight spaces. The J-shaped hooks hold even heavier items like jeans and jackets without any issue. It’s functional, space-efficient, and has a clean look. If you’re tight on space or just want a smart laundry solution, this one’s a great pick. Read more
While most of the millwork on the clothing hanger is well done, the drilling of the screw holes for the horizontal stability bar is way off and does not align on the bar and the backplate. Very poor. The weight of this thing is also formidable unless you are sure you can mount it through studs in the wall. I anticipated this issue. Instructions are incomplete for the upgraded model, too. The upward joint on mine is very stiff, so swiveling this whole deal up and out of the way is gonna be a chore that will require carefully placing pressure on the backplate while swiveling up to avoid tearing the backplate out of any wall anchors if that's all you can use. I wouldn't even try to mount this with adhesive--too heavy. Read more
