X-cosrack Wall Mount Clothes Drying Rack, 25.2" Wide Rustproof Accordion Retractable Drying Rack for Laundry Room/Bathroom Tower, 8 Bar Space-Saving Aluminium Alloys Laundry Drying Rack Silver

I used to have a full-size garment rack in my laundry room, but it took up too much space. This rack provides plenty of drying space with its expandable design and folds neatly when not in use. Made of sturdy aluminum alloy, it’s rustproof and strong enough to hold heavy clothes. The only minor drawback is that installation requires precise leveling to ensure it folds smoothly, but once set up, it works great!

This rack is great! I like to use it to hang clothes to dry in the sun. Super durable to weather and temperature. It’s easy to use and looks good.

Tbh, I was a little hesitant about buying this because the accordion style just looked like it wouldn't be that sturdy, however I am pleasantly surprised how sturdy it actually is. This can accommodate multiple wet articles of clothing without sagging, so I would definitely recommend this product. My only critique would be that it comes with minimal instructions, so if you're not good with DIY, you may be a bit puzzled about how to install this so I'll give you some advice that worked for me. First of all, I ordered the larger 32" version so that it lined up with the wood studs on my wall (which are usually 16 inches on center, so having a 32-in version makes so much sense). If you don't have a stud finder, you should purchase one to locate the studs behind your wall. I first secured one bracket to a stud, using a small bubble level to make sure it is perfectly vertical. Since it was going into the stud directly, I did not need the wall anchors that are supplied. I then used a larger bubble level, laying it on top of the bracket that I just installed, and put a mark 32 in away (to Mark where the top of the other bracket needs to go). I then installed the hanger into the bracket that I already secured onto the wall already, and temporarily put the other bracket on the other end, holding it up to the mark on the wall, and then outlining the top bottom inside of the bracket, so I know exactly where I'm installing the second bracket. I then removed the hanger from the brackets and secured the other bracket onto the wall, within the marks that I just created. This worked perfectly, and is very secure. I hope this helps augment the instructions that are supplied.

This was a great addition to our garage to hang beach towels! It is sturdy and was easy to install. We are loving it! Well made!

Tucks out of the way when not in use

I needed laundry clothes racks in my laundry room. I like the way that these racks can be folded against the wall and adjusted out to how far I need.

This rack is a light colored aluminum finish, not white. I used tapcons to install into a concrete wall about 30 inches above our laundry sink to allow items to dry and drip water into sink. Product works well and is easy to install with separate brackets that the main unit slides into. When extending and contracting it can be slightly jerky, but that is expected given the design. I do like the way it can be partially opened if you only have one or two items to dry. Seems sturdy and the aluminum-style finish does not appear it will turn rusty (have only had it in use for a week). Perhaps a little overpriced but the quality is there, not flimsy.

I don't really like to give the product a 3-star rating as I think it is pretty decent. However there is a design deficiency that makes it difficult to install that you need to be aware of. There are 2 channel pieces that you have to mount on the wall that have a hole center pattern between the 2 of 24" They don't say that in the instructions but is easy to figure out if you measure the structure itself. They provide drywall inserts and screws but don't say hole big to drill the hole for the inserts. Again, able to figure that out and move on. The major issue is that there are caps at the bottom of each channel that need to be removed (if you are doing an installation under a cabinet; otherwise you need at least 9 inches of clearance at the top to be able to slide the rack into the channel brackets. If sliding the rack in from the bottom, you have to remove the 2 screws on the bottom of each channel bracket so you can slide the rack up into the channels and then re-attach the caps to hold it up. Here is the problem. The screws are small and self tapping into the Aluminum bracket. It was hard to get those screws out even when the brackets were not attached to the wall yet. Be sure to have multiple Phillips screw drivers to try to get the right size. I got those off and now the problem. The holes for the screws are not centered, they are biased toward the wall such that it is very difficult to get a screw driver close to the wall to screw them in parallel to the wall. See pics. At most, the screw head is 1/8" away from the wall. You need a small diameter screw driver but need a large one really because the self-tapping screws are hard to screw in so you need a good strong grip. In fact, I was able to only get one in each side and the other two remain sticking out as seen in the pictures. Really there are better designs to fasten this cap. I even dug a hole in my drywall when trying to get one of the screws attached. You better have strong hands and patience to tackle this type of installation. If they had tapped (machined) screw holes where the screws could go in easy it would eliminate this issue. So what would have been really a 5 minute installation ending up being over 30 min and I only got one screw back in each side. Then I had to repair my drywall and touch up the paint. I am a contractor of 40 years so I am not a rookie. Hopefully the single screw will be sufficient to hold the rack up or else I will have to provide a support underneath to do so. Just something to be aware of if you are considering purchasing this product.
