Meadow Lane Goods Cleaning Solutions Plastic Clothespins for Air-Drying Clothing, 1-Pack (12 Blue and 12 Green)

Last year I ordered two types of clothespins. One breaks when I pinch the jaws open and I end up with shards of plastic on the ground. Half of those have broken and I needed to replace them...so I bought this brand again instead. This brand has never broken. They're easier to use because the area where one puts one's fingertips is just a little more ergonomic. They're pretty---blue or green. I have absolutely zero complaints about this brand of clothespin! I highly recommend them!

I have tried several other cloths pins for hanging laundry out to dry in the fresh air, but these pins are the best of all I have ordered so far. First, the pins are large enough to easily grasp with your fingers (vs. the small stainless steel cloths pins). Second, they make a tight grip with the clothes (vs. the very large stainless steel cloths pins). Third, they don't leave any stains on your clothes like a wooden clothes pin can. I hope, and expect, they will last a long time. I'm going to buy more of them. There is nothing like line-dried sheets and pillowcases - so fresh, so clean smelling. Mr. Clothes Hanger.

I bought these because they appeared to be stronger than most others. But I have noticed with only a few uses that several have already started shifting - the spring that holds the two sides together has allowed a few of the sides to move, requiring readjustment. I foresee that we will need to treat them delicately.

*update nov 28, 2019: at least one a week breaks but the worst part is only half of the plastic pin falls off - the spring and metal ends are still attached to the clothing item and embedded into the fabric. you have to ever so gently get the sharp metal pin ends unraveled from the clothes without making TOO big of a hole in it. i was just going to keep using them up until they all broke but now they are damaging my things - buyer beware.i bought these to replace an old set from amazon that is no longer available, and those original clothespins lasted years. now, in about a month of very light use i've had at least 6 of these break. some of them have broken just pinned on the clothesline, yet to be actually used on an item of clothing (in the shade, no weather or sunshine). i'm so disappointed. reading the reviews i realized they wouldn't be as awesome as my original ones but at this rate i won't have any left in a few months. extremely poor quality

Great clips for outdoor clotheslines. Good grip, and have held up well in direct, intense sun. My only complaint is that it can take a few seconds (per clip) to line up the clothesline and clothing item correctly to get it to stay on, which gets a little tedious. It would be nice if the clothesline couldn't overshoot its intended slot into the spring mechanism.

These make the old fashioned wooden clothes pins seem like dinosaurs. These are so cool looking and really will hold quite a bit of weight. I am delighted with these. In fact, so pleased that I sent an order to my daughter who is a brand new mommy. Boy, is she ever gonna use these a bunch! Highly recommend this attractive and VERY functional item. Also, sent the little new mother the Augbunny 100% Cotton Canvas Clothespin Bag in White (also found on Amazon). It's a two-pack, so I kept one. The canvas bag and these great clothespins are a dynamic duo. When summer gets here again and we start hanging up beach towels and bathing suits to dry, I will definitely buy more of these heavy duty clothes pins in a cool blue and cool green color!

These are very good for my indoor drying rack, they have a good strong hold and I like the cushioned grips. The plastic is not the thickest, I can see these getting brittle and breaking with longer outdoor use, typical of most any plastic clothe pin used out doors often. They did not leave "pin marks" afterwards on the dry clothing.

When I got these, I was thrilled! They hold clothes on the line tightly, even when it's windy. Problem is, they don't last! Like everyone I know, I leave my clothespins outside near my clothesline. I'm not sure if that's the problem or not, but after only 4 months use, they would snap and break every time I squeezed one! They'll even break while they are holding something on the line! Such a shame! I only have about half the pins I originally bought - the rest have broken! I wouldn't recommend these at all! Unless you want to find your clothes on the ground because these have broken while they are drying your clothes!
