is anyone else having problems with the top hanger sliding down the extension top piece? the hanger will NOT stay up even when tightened all the way!

Yes, the clamps are the same size, but the upper and lower poles are different diameters. I wrapped something around the pole then clamped onto that and it seems to work fine. For reference, I used a small stack if postit notes, and also a popped rubber inner tube. The inner tube works great because it doesn't slip and the rubber is easier for the clamp to squeeze on.

I don't have that problem. It's been up for 2 months and the top stays in place. However I haven't taken the bike off yet so maybe that changes things

Works well for me. I think it required quite a bit of tightening, but it stays on for more than a year now.

Mine doesn't go up all the way either but I think it's designed that way. It has not caused any problems for me as the bottom stays on without being hooked on at that point.

Hi Lizh...I am not sure how it should go on mine was already attached when I got it. I would imagine though that you just screw it into the top as far down as you can until it catches. That may do the trick

I had the same problem. You have to wedge the hanger over and through the bottom wires. The hook goes over the first bar and under the second. It took me a while to figure out. If you zoom in close on the picture, you can kind of see.

There are holes in the back of the top supports. When you get the back canvas in place, screw the crews through the canvas into the holes. That keeps the back from sliding off. I had the same question, but finally figured it out (with help from my kids).

I didn't have any issues. I think everything just slided together. The cup piece might need some force to snap in. I love this drying rack, it's strong and it looks cute too!

Just finished putting the bike together and am having the same problem. The seat is ridiculously loose, it rotates around and flexes up and down as I'm riding. It almost seems like it's intentionally built this way. Have either of you been able to fix this problem since you posted? Or are you just dealing with it? Thanks

I remember having the same problem. Try something different for the spacer or cut the spacer in half. Once you get it to snap together, it will be fine. It has been assembled and in heavy use by my 5 year old since I bought it.

That is what I did. But I ended up having to super glue the dividers, they kept sliding out of the slots. It's fine now, but I wondered if hanging it might have prevented that issue, but I didn't have a place for it.

Mine doesn't stay up and will fall occasionally. We have to be careful not to touch or bump it and just last week, it broke. It cannot be fixed. The part that bends broke in half when trying to tighten it after it fell again. Waste of my money.

Oooh, it appears they made a mistake. There should be a part (coupler, I think they call it) that is fixed around the pole in order for the "cone" not to slide down the pole: tehn you fold closed the cone over the coupler--on which it rests and holds. If the coupler (with its screws) was not in the package, you should complain and have the whole thing replaced or have them ship to you the missing part. Good luck!

I saw those issues posted too. I got mine anyway and did not have that problem. I love mine. Love! The legs have very shallow holes though. And anytime I move any piece, I move it with care. (someone lifting on both ends). Just in case I also put 3m soft stickers on the bottom of the legs as it is on hard wood floors and now if they get slid a bit one way or another I dont worry about having as much pressure on the legs.

If you have a flat piece of wood as your top rail, the hanger has a crook in it that you just slide onto the rail. It doesn't hold anything heavy though; it will bend.

Hi Carla, I have not had that problem. I keep my dryer up from May - October. When my husband takes it down for the season he closes slowly while keeping the lines straight up and down. I also store standing up in the garage with a garbage bag on top to keep the lines clean. I am asking my husband now ----- Take and gather the lines on either side of the center pole so that when you fold the dryer the lines don't get all tangled. You can use string or elastic ribbon to tie together when closing. Hope this helps

Just got mine for christmas and mine is doing the same thing....Hangs down 2-3 inches....Will take down and see if there are some screws in the hing joint to tighten this problem....

Never had that issue with mine. I know it came with packaging to prevent it from slipping during shipping - might have slipped into the mechanism. Wish I could help more...

Hi Karen, There is a little inner clip that slips right around the hanger. The trick is to pinch the top of the outer clip so that you can see the inner clip and secure it to the desired location on the hanger. I hope this helps.
