Review on Home Genie - 50 Pack Large Natural Birchwood Clothespins: Rust and Moisture Resistant Clothes 📸 Pegs, Durable Wood Clothing Pins with Strong Grip for Dry Laundry on Clothesline, Bag Clips, Crafts, Photos by Jason Paige

They are great for crafts, sealing bags of crisps etc but definitely not strong enough for everyday laundry use. The first thing I should have noticed was that there wasn't a second, smaller hole for the clothesline (it was visible in the photo, I just didn't pay enough attention). This top hole through the needle is very important to avoid denting your clothes - because you're just pinching them instead of pinning right at the line with the main hole - and you can take your clothes off very quickly just by squeezing the needles and Drop the items instead of removing the entire needle (needles stay in place, clothes come and go). All settlers, homeless residents and experienced clothesline users know what I'm talking about :) Second, they are very light and the spring is not strong enough to hold heavy objects (wet cars/jeans etc.). .) without using MANY contacts. They also curl and break easily. I'll put them to good use in the pantry and other places in the house, but not on the clothesline.
