Product Information

Once open, it should be noted that there is no option for any height adjustment. In fact, many users felt it was too short, so you will probably struggle to hang longer items on it without them touching the ground. Whilst this might seem like an arbitrary link, it makes a lot more sense after realising that rotary washing lines are sometimes referred to as ‘laundry trees’– plus, Brabantia are keen to encourage line-drying as an environmental choice. Drying your clothes on a line outside avoids accidents that can occur with a dryer including electrocution. In addition, anyone can use a rotary line safely while not everyone might understand how to safely operate a dryer. The frame is painted with weather and rust-resistant materials but it doesn’t cope well in strong winds. Therefore, you shouldn’t expect much if you leave this rotary dryer out in a storm. On the plus side, it’s a decent height at 194.5 cm meaning the washing is not in danger of dragging on the ground. Plus, longer items can be hung with enough clearance so that pets don’t brush past them.

Make sure that your laundry day needs do not outweigh this limit. In other words, if you do a lot of washing, a heavy-duty and large 4-arm airer is better than a smaller 3-arm or mobile airer. 3.

More interesting is this movement's efforts to chart the history of the rotary clotheslines. Nowadays, the rotary umbrella clotheslines is a big hit in many countries, and very few people know that its origin has been embedded in the American soil. Authors of "Hung Out to Dry: Gilbert Toyne's classic Australian Clothes Hoist" challenges the usual notions of Australians who believe that the rotary umbrella clotheslines is their invention, since it has been a part of their daily life as long as they could remember. This tool has been so commonly used, that it has been merged as an icon into the media and given a unique history of its own in the form of comic illustrations, paintings and sculptures, and even poems! But Cas Middlemas and Peter Cuffley set out to get history right this time, and in their research they make an amazing discovery. The umbrella rotary clothesline technology certain has been patented multiple times in the American soil before heading to Australia. Steel rotary washing lines are considered stronger and less likely to bend, warp or break than aluminium ones. This is their main advantage, and can be particularly useful if washing drying heavier items like duvets, blankets or towels. Choosing a Line with Enough Space You’ll naturally need to base the size of your line on the space you have available. However, these are some useful facts to know: to hang up double bed sheets, the outer line needs to be around 140 cm long . For king-size sheets, it will need to be around 150 cm.
