Tools and Hardware Reviews of Mibro Clothesline KitCustomer Review: Parts are mostly very strong, but has a weak link Summary: 3 StarsOn the positive side, although the pulleys are made of an inexpensive white-metal alloy, they seem to be strong enough to handle the job (with a satisfyingly loud squeak, just like Granny's clothesline). And there is plenty of plastic-coated cable that is much stronger than necessary.
The "mini winch" was indeed easy to use and seemed promising at first, but after a few weeks, the oval frame of it warped under the pressure of a full load of laundry on the line, causing the ratcheting mechanism to fail, and dumping everything on the ground. I bent the frame back into shape, but it was just too weak. In the end, I replaced it with a proper turnbuckle and a couple cable clamps from a hardware store (like these:National #N221-820 3/16x51/2 Stainless Steel Turnbuckle and National #N248-278 1/8" ZN Cable Clamp(a box of clamps).
So, the bottom line is that it was a bit pricey to begin with, and should not have required the additional expense and hassle, but I think I now have a clothesline that will stand like a dam.
