Why Shoppers Are Loving GorillaLine's Retractable Clothesline | Apartment Therapy

Something about my childhood that never ceases to amaze people is when I tell them I grew up using an outdoor clothesline to dry clothes. Now for many, this is a common practice. However, when you grow up in Brooklyn, like me, it’s anything but common. The unique way our home was set up gave us this opportunity, and it’s one I miss every day since selling my childhood home (anyone who has ever had the joy of experiencing the incredible fresh smell of clothesline-dried clothes knows what I’m talking about).

Now, I won’t sit here and act like I don’t enjoy the luxury of using a dryer (as well as no longer experiencing the panic of reeling everything in ahead of a rainstorm). However, there are days I wish I just had the opportunity to experience it again in my adult apartment life. Well, I may have found the perfect solution: GorillaLine’s Retractable Clothesline.

This retractable clothesline allows you to enjoy the benefits of a clothesline both indoors and out. It’s the ultimate hack for anyone looking to have it all when it comes to laundry day. Using it couldn’t be easier: Simply mount it to a wall, pull it to your desired length (it reaches over 13 feet!), and lock it into place. It’s capable of holding up to 40 pounds, so you can hang everything from bed sheets and towels to your thickest sweaters and jeans. Best of all, it comes with all of the hardware needed, so you can have this set up in mere minutes!

Average rating: 4.5/5 stars

“Works perfect for my laundry room. I can fill the entire line with clothes and the lock keeps the line in place. There’s very minimal droop with the line — obviously there will be some due to hanging things on it! Love how little space it takes and the retractable makes it a must-have. Love!” —Hannah

“Exactly what I needed for my small apartment bathroom. Now I have a place to hang hand-washed items to drip dry over the tub. I can set the length of the line so items can hang lower or higher for larger items. Easy enough to install.” —J. Park

“This is the best line I have found. The ability to take down and put up SO EASILY is what sold me. And adjusting the strength of the line is a big plus too! I love mine!” —Kamra
