I really like this product. I purchased it because I wanted to dry my clothing and linens outside but didn't want my backyard taken over by a clothesline.  I used a 15lb sledgehammer to drive the spike into the ground and put up/takedown the line everytime I use it.  It's really light and easy to put up and take down. A red plastic cover protects the spike from rain and it can be mowed over without any problem.
