24 and 28 Strong Plastic Clothes Pegs with Rust-Free Spring – Mixed Colours, Outdoor Washing Line Pegs

You know that moment when you pull something off the washing line and there's a rust stain right across it? That's not bad luck — that's a cheap spring. The plastic on most pegs is fine. It's the little metal coil inside that lets them down, and once it starts going, it goes fast. The grip softens, the peg starts failing to hold things properly, and meanwhile it's been leaving marks on your white sheets that no amount of rewashing shifts.

That's the one thing worth paying attention to with these pegs. The spring is rust-free. It sounds like a minor detail but it's genuinely the difference between pegs that last a couple of years and pegs you're replacing every summer.

The plastic itself is the solid, proper kind — not the thin brittle stuff that cracks the first time it gets left outside through a cold spell. These have some weight to them when you hold one. They grip properly, they open and close cleanly, and they don't slowly turn into a collection of broken pegs at the bottom of your peg bag.

The pack has 24 and 28 in total — orange, yellow, pink and blue, six of each. Honestly, having four colours is more useful than it sounds. Once you start giving each person in the house their own colour, sorting laundry becomes a lot less tedious. It takes about ten seconds to figure out whose pile is whose instead of going through everything individually.

They work indoors just as well as outside — drying racks, radiator airers, whatever you use. A handful also live in most kitchen drawers for clipping cereal bags and bread bags shut, which they do perfectly well. Light enough to throw a few in a travel bag if you're going camping or somewhere with a drying line.

Nothing complicated about them. They're pegs. But they're ones that actually hold up.
