The clips are built in, so when my clothes are dry, I can just fold the rack and tuck it out of the way. A clothesline would not have given me as much space to hang things in such a small footprint.<\/p>\n<p>If I want to use the shower, I can just grab the rack by the hook and place it in the sink in one step rather than wrestling with a bunch of hangers or taking down a clothesline.<\/p>\n<p>If I have overflow, I can hang a few extra items from the Swiffer itself and I still have room to hang about 10 tops on hangers from the door frame. It&#8217;s so nice to finally have found a way to contain my drying laundry.
