Love these, makes watering my ferns so easy. You do have to be careful and hold the pot at the same time you pull the string or it free falls and the pot could come off the hook. The same is true once you want to raise the plant, hold the bottom of the pot and push it up slowly or it will come off the hook. But they are really well made and do the job.

Hanger for Seed Tray Lights
I got these to hang LED lights for my seed trays. They work! Easy to install (drill a hole for a hook in the ceiling or floor joist, in my case) and hang the light. Raise or lower as needed.

Handy, but FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!
These hooks work as described and I’m very happy with the performance. We use them on bird feeders and lower them to refill and bring in at night to foil the raccoons. But, you MUST follow the manufacturer’s warning to not let the hook fall freely while bearing weight or rewind without any weight as the spring inside WILL break. Luckily with three to a pack we had a spare. I’m fairly handy, so I took a crack a repairing it and came close, but gave up; getting the spring rewound and the cord rewrapped proved too frustrating. The break was my fault for not following instructions, but I took one star off because they require delicate handling. Overall, very happy with this purchase.

No, this product did not meet my expectations. When I lifted a plant off the first one, the pulley returned to the top so fast, it broke the the inner spring. (I had to open a second pulley to determine the problem.) So, the first pulley is broken. I plan to return these to Home Depot shortly.
I have another set, and don't know where my parents got them, but there is no string attached. These work fantastic and is what I am looking for. A picture is attached, but I don't know where to find them.
Thank you.

This is a good pulley system that works well. HOWEVER, the hanger system is very delicate. I have four 10 inch pots containing Boston Ferns in my atrium. The hanger lowers the pot when the lever is pulled. You must assist the plant, by putting your hand under the pot when lowering it so that it is lowered very slowly. You must not allow the plant to simply fall until it reaches the end of the tether. Also, you must never allow the plant to remain with the tether fully extended for a long period of time. In other words, you must always lower the pot, water the plant, then raise up the pot soon after lowering it. I completely lowered my 4 pots for a couple of days to give them more sun. 2 of the pulleys failed to function when I tried to raise them. Finally, if you fully extend the tether, without a plant attached, then pull the lever, and the tether snaps back into the pulley housing, kinda like a "pffft" sound, the pulley will be ruined. Still it's the only thing on the market that does what it does, and for a good price. I would definitely recommend this pulley, and I recommend you take my advice in using it, and buy some extras so that you can quickly replace thos that are ruined by not strictly following my recommendations.

I used the pulley to work as a herb lamp holder. I installed a shelf, attached the pulley to it along with straps hooked to the lamp to raise/lower the heat lamp for my niece. She was very pleased with the design and the ease of use with the pulley.....

Best Design Ever
I just installed 4 of these on our deck and used the pergola to anchor them - couldn't have been easier. And they work perfectly, but please read the instructions for raising and lowering as it can be tricky at first.
I really like that the pulley use strong nylon webbing as the material for the retractable mechanism and not flimsy cord
And for those complaining about the string hanging down, you can shorten it by removing the end cap on the plastic piece at the end of the string.
Also, someone noted that the maximum weight was 22 lbs, but my instructions say to not exceed 8 lbs.

This product meets my needs for hanging baskets and hummingbird feeders
This works fairly well. It is not as good, or easy to use as the pulleys you carried last year.

It appears to be good quality , and I never gave the string a thought about it blowing in the wind and becoming a risk to the birds getting caught in it since it’s used for hanging out the bird feeder, however, the true test will be how well it performs in the winter

I was disappointed. I ordered these for my ferns. They work fine as long as the dirt in the pot is dry. After watering, the pulley can't handle the weight.

Snapped
This did not last long. The weight snapped the cord and my hanging basket fell to the ground. I would an extension chain over this product. I now have 3, if anyone wants them. They’re free!!

Worthless plant holder
I hung on small plant on this and tried to lower it and it ripped right off the pulley took them all back. If it broke holding a small pot how would it hold a big basket. Don’t waste you money.
