OK For T-Shirts, Lingerie, Lightweight Stuff Only! BAD For Sheets, Pants Towels + Heavy Items...
This drying rack is good ONLY for very lightweight clothing - underwear, socks, t-shirts, lingerie, baby clothes, dish clothes...! It is not good for towels, sheets, pants -- or anything heavy that you want to dry *without* wrinkles.
The problem is, the wires are very thin, sway under the lightest weight and then the clothing / items crumples just a touch -- but noticeably enough -- and it dries with lots of wrinkles. So when I put ie, a wet dress shirt across it, it dries with a big wrinkled crease where it lies on the bar. Same for any pants, pillow cases etc. As the bar bends, the fabric bunches up and dries smooshed! It doesn't matter on t-shirts or polo shirts or jeans that are just going to look a touch rumpled anyway -- but on clothing or items that you expect to look crisp and flat… it's going to be wrinkled. You can see in the pics below, how all the items on the rack crumple up as they dry. So everything comes out dry… and wrinkled!
This rack is best for small stuff like baby clothing, t'shirts, underwear, lingerie, dish towels etc. And it has enough space for 1 person's clothes. But it definitely won't do for a normal family load!
Overall not big or sturdy enough for sheets, towels, or lots of clothes. But fine if you only need something light and basic for simple things that don't have to be wrinkle free.
I'd probably bring it back but I'm sure HD would probably just toss it in the garbage and create waste if I returned it. And the whole reason I bought an air drying rack was to save some gas and electricity, reduce waste, and go natural! So I'll keep it. Use it occasionally for small, light weight stuff! But will go out and find / buy another rack that works better for the bigger heavier things I need to dry!

It is too low, the wires (to hang laundry) are not tight (= they sag a bit) and the rack feels very light ("cheap") comparing to the same kind of rack I used to have.

It is perfect! Folds up nice and neatly, takes up very little space to store it. Works like a charm for laundry that we don't want to put into the dryer. Will be perfect for rainy or winter laundry drying. Amazing the amount of laundry this rack holds. Very stable, well made. Best purchase I have made all year.

Good clothes drying rack. Folds up well to fit in closet. The size is not the greatest, but is the right size for my purposes; if I had wanted larger, I would have had to pay $10 more.

I bought this rack for drying tops that can’t go in the dryer, as well as the occasional single bath towel. It is very lightweight and easy to fold up and stash. It wouldn’t be suitable for drying heavy items like jeans because it might buckle, but it’s perfect for my needs.

Decent product, needs improvement
It is decent product. The only concern is that during folding and unfolding, the tabs on the fixed hinge side come out and need to be put back in place, which neither is too easy nor convenient.

Bad product
The x-frame folding rack fell apart when I took it out of the box and I could not get it to stay together. I will be returning it to the local home depot as soon as they are accepting returns.

Look at it twice
What I did not calculate that the lines are stiff, my old dryer stand had regular vinyl bendable lines and I was able to hang the stand between the upper dryer and a shelf - out of the way. With the stiff lines I cannot do that and I had to find a new place for it, no easy feat in a small apt.
