Fantastic service. Clothes line arrived two days after I placed my order. Great instructions for installation. The installation Video is a bonus. Very pleased with my Hills retractable clothes line. 10/10. Show reply

The chat bot failed to respond after 10 minutes, and phone lines only loop through unanswered extensions. It’s clear customer service isn’t a priority, leaving issues unresolved and customers frustrated.

Re: a Retractaway 40 clotheline purchased previously, but minus its receiving catch... Filled out an online form, and the response time was faster than a speeding bullet. Had a wonderful experience with Erin, from the Nerang location, and explained that I was missing a retaining catch for a Retractaway 40, and it was in my mailbox three days… Read more ·  1

later. Amazing service, and no charge. Very impressed. I chose this model as I needed a wall to wall fitting, with a wide span. Highly recommend this business, and really great to deal with.

Delayed Order – No information about delayed delivery times, I know what time of the year it is and if as a company you know that your preferred courier is swamped, let the customer know. I ordered based on reviews of fast delivery times. 15days later and no update on a delivery time/date. Just “Sorry your delivery is delayed.” Lots of places have clotheslines, I… Read more

just which that I wasn’t too busy to just go and buy one off shelf. Defy it buying from The Clothesline Store again.

Great product, terrific service – Spoke to their customer service staff and discussed which model was appropriate for us, then we spoke about installation options and it was sorted. The clothesline was delivered a few days later and install occurred today. The installer was very good and cleaned up afterwards.. how easy was it to get this all done... Very easy. Show reply

Compact, but effective – Replacement Hills wall-mounted clothesline. Our old one gave up the ghost after 15 years in a strong wind. Replacement is longer but narrower than the one it replaced, but has increased line length. Item was delivered promptly, was well priced, and fairly easy to assemble and install. As it can be fastened to various structure types, I had to… Read more ·  1

get specific fastenings (dynabolts) from Bunnings but otherwise pretty straight forward, and looks good.

Solid excellent quality – I have been contemplating purchasing an indoor/outdoor clothesline not only for rainy days but for those days when I need more hanging space. I am very happy with my purchase and the price of $245 Will easily be recouped in lieu of clothes drier costs. Great product

Good price but Aramex is a big let down – Haven’t received my product yet, but as far as this company goes I got the product at the cheapest price and it was sent out fast. However I would have preferred to know who the courier would be prior to purchasing. It turns out my parcel has been sent out with Aramex and if I knew that in advance I absolutely would not have purchased through this… Read more ·  1

company and would have preferred to pay a little extra and buy instore locally from a different store. Aramex is the worst delivery company in my experience and I’m yet to have a good experience with them. I waited around all afternoon yesterday as it was ‘on board for delivery’ yesterday so wanted to ensure dogs were sorted out so I could have the front gate open etc. Never turned up. Please reconsider using this company. They are absolutely shocking and plenty of other people agree.

Unhappy customer – I received my pension before my item. If I had read the reviews I would not have bought the item. NEVER again. I will go with the opposition before I go with them again.

Beware the no return policy – Be very careful about what you order as this company does not accept returns. I bought a 7-line extendaline for between the two side walls of my balcony, but I didn't realise that this Hills unit included the end bar. So I also ordered an end bar. It took me some time to arrange for a friend to help me (in a senior citizen) to install the line… Read more

and so discover that I didn't need the separate $60 end bar. The company refused in no uncertain terms to accept a return of the untouched bar and told me to sell it on eBay instead. Buyer beware this company and check the many negative reviews and company's pushback.

Misleading advertising – Hills Hoist has this store advertised first on its suppliers page. I chose the product I wanted, chose the colour etc, went to pay for it and then discovered that although they advertised in bold capital letters FREE DELIVERY that did not include Western Australia which is where I live. Perhaps they need to include (except WA) in their initial advertising to save me wasting my time.

Amazing service – I bought my Austral Super 5 fixed clothes hoist from this online company. Delivery was free and the hoist was delivered to my door within a few days. Customer service was amazing. Darren, from The Clothesline Store was in touch regularly,while I was awaiting delivery. He sent through all the instructions, hints and tips I needed. It was easy to put up, and I am very happy with this company. I highly recommend them. . Show reply

Excellent customer service – I ordered a clothesline which unfortunately arrived with transit damage. Renae responded to my email query and promptly sent out a replacement - as well as liaising with the transport conpany on my behalf. My new clothesline has just been delivered. The whole process only took a few days, and the damaged clothesline is being collected tomorrow. Thank you so much!! Show reply

Worst Costumer Service. Stay AWAY!!! – Strongly recommend buying your cloth line from another place. Heaps of other ones out there. They are happy to take your money, just to then send you an email saying sorry we don’t deliver to you but we can give you a refund what will take 5 days. Updated your website so it shows straight away that you won’t deliver to the supplied area. Absolute joke.

Great after sales – I thought i had wrong parts during installation and emailed the customer service. Renae was quick to respond in 30 mins what went wrong and how to install with the video and also she had done the follow up email to ensure that everything is working in perfect condition. Can't thank enough. Great job Renae!!!!! Show reply

Great service and communication – Delivery of my clothesline was quick and the installers were excellent. My installer noticed a problem that had occurred in shipping. The faulty post was replaced efficiently and the next installer finished the job. Great service and advice from these guys! Show reply

Bummed out ex customer – Dud transactions & selling clotheslines to areas they don't deliver to. 2 transactions in 2 days that were duds & a hell of a lot of inconvenience & stress attached to an item I really needed. Now I have to wait until my money goes in my bank for a refund. There is one worker who sends sarcastic emails as well. Never again with this shop!

Easy to order, super fast delivery – I have given 4 stars only because we have not installed the clothes lines yet, I needed 2 x 1800 wall mounted clothes lines which was harder than I thought, I don't think they are a standard (or popular size). Order process was super easy, the price was good & the delivery super fast (was even delivered on a Saturday!) Show reply

LINE UP - CLOTHES DRY – Online was easy to sort what was needed with relative ease to order. Erecting the line was just as easy with ground kit that was supplied. Would readily do it again when needed!! Show reply

Mixed thoughts – I was very happy with the online customer chat service and quick delivery of this product. We began the installation of the ground mounted folding line and struggled a little with the instructions. The biggest problem was the length of the uprights - they were much too long to install on the concrete stands and have to be cut down in length to be… Read more ·  1

able to reach the lines. I assume the length was in order to bury into the ground and not on top of a concrete slab.

Great product – Recently bought a wall mount clothesline from the clothesline store. Website was very easy to navigate which made the purchase a breeze. I was kept up to date with the delivery timeframe and provided with the installers number to arrange for it to be installed. Received the clothesline on time and was able to have my clothesline installed the next day. Highly recommended due to the great product and outstanding service. Show reply

This is a great addition to any backyard that has limited space. You have a… Read more

choice to use the large line or the smaller line or both together if those washing loads are big. I can fit at least 3 full washing loads on this clothesline. Thats a family of 3.

disgusting customer service – poor customer service very rude and missleading service very smug customer service attitudes cancelled my order without my knowledge lied about delivery after i asked about delivery to my address to get a sale then they delivered it to another town 2 hours away because their subby freight company do not deliver to my address, if they knew their job they would check addresses before misleading customers .

Missing parts and wrong color line. Needed to purchase items to complete installation – Just some feedback on my recent purchase of the Clothesline Store city life studio clothesline. We assembled this a few days after it arrived in late December. The kit didnt come complete with the required screws and bolts to hold arm onto swinging bracket>We had to purchase same from Bunnings to complete the assembly of the item The plastic line… Read more

was a yellow color which looked dated/silly against the crisp white frame. We had to purchase white line from Bunnings to make it look tidy. Advised seller of these issues and got a pretty disinterested/generic reply. Perhaps think about these things as future buyers as it really was inconvenient and added to the cost of purchase and time to install.

Very poor customer service, I ended up sorting the issue with the manufacturer Hill's – When my clothes line arrived it was missing bolts so I was unable to install it. I spoke to [Name Removed], sent photographs of what arrived as instructed and was told that Hill's would post them out soon. I ended up having to contact Hill's directly as I was not receiving any clear updates from [Name Removed]. The bolts arrived after 2 weeks,… Read more

however the wrong bolt's had been sent, even after sending photographs and listing what was missing..... Finally after 3 and a half weeks the bolts arrived no thanks to [Name Removed]. This was a very disappointing customer service experience.

Short life span – Sadly our product only lasted three years. The base corroded and rusted and the whole thing fell over. Not covered under warranty. Unsure why this would happen. Was installed by the company.

Terrific solution for narrow yard – For a small narrow backyard this item is great. And the fact we can put it away when we have guests or wish to use the yard for other purposes it great. The plastic tension arm is a bit flimsy being plastic and you have to navigate it carefully so I'm concerned it may break easily. Show reply

Hills clothesline – Clothesline itself is great. Was disappointed that installers wouldn't install into already existing timber frame only into cement or brick wall. There is the option of purchasing another frame product. We subsequently had someone come in who installed - all set now. Show reply
