Troubleshooting

Pegs do not hold laundry securely

Ensure the pegs are correctly positioned on the fabric and the line/airer. For thicker fabrics, try using two pegs or distributing the weight evenly.

Wooden pegs feel rough or splintery

Inspect the pegs for any rough spots. Lightly sand them with fine-grit sandpaper if necessary. This is uncommon with quality birch wood.

Peg bag is difficult to close

Ensure the drawstring is not tangled and is pulled evenly. Check the toggle mechanism for any obstructions.

Pegs show signs of mold or mildew

This can occur if left damp for extended periods. Remove the pegs from the damp environment immediately, clean them with a mild soap and water solution, and ensure they are thoroughly dried before storing them indoors.
