Product Information

Brand: Brabantia | Dimensions open: H19.5 x W108.5 x D18.5cm (turning diameter) | Dimensions closed: Unspecified | Material: Metal | Mount Type: Wall mount | Cover included: Storage box | Maximum wash load: 2 wash loads What we like It is much smaller than other models, with only 15m of line space. However, this may be enough depending on your needs and family size; for example, it is great for couples with a new baby! It does claim to hold one load of washing or possibly two if the loads are small. Our only recommendation is that you don't try to use it outside on a windy day, as the Minky only comes with a few ground pegs, which won't survive in a strong wind. Your affinity for DIY: Some require a lengthier installation process, so think carefully about whether you or someone in your household is up to the challenge. It has a lovely drying space of 50 m and a strong washing lines capable of bearing 4 washing machine loads. The outermost lines measure 2.03 meters each and can hold sheets, tablecloths, and other large items. You can consider embedding the ground spike in concrete or plaster for extra support, but it is optional. How deep should a hole be for the ground spike?

Compared to other types of washing lines and tumble dryers, most rotary washing lines are very affordable, especially the smaller models and mobile versions. That being said, make sure that cheap rotary lines are not too flimsy! 2. Quantity of laundry When choosing a line, you need to assess how much room you have outside, where you’re planning on putting the line, and how much laundry you wash. They’re generally not massive in size and they don’t usually come with any extras! But they’re normally solid enough, and if looked after well, they can last a long time. Space is key! So, if you have to choose a smaller washing line to work within the space you have, do so. There’s no point buying an extra-large line, if you can’t use it effectively.Of course, size is one major factor to think about when choosing a rotary washing line. However, there are a few other things you ought to consider before you commit to buying a line. Can the rotary line fold down? I have a four-arm heavy duty one - hated the concept at first (being an old fashioned single line type of girl) but now love it - can get two whole loads from my large machine on there every other line."(Type suggested by Mumsnet user Whoamireally) Our verdict

There’s no point buying a line that you can’t reach properly. Similarly, you need a line that’s tall enough (or can be adjusted), so your washing won’t drag along the floor. A lightweight, but sturdy, rotary washing line, the Vileda Sun-Life 40m Compact Rotary Airer comes with some helpful features, including a rachet system to alter the height and ensure the lines stay taut, and four clip-on hooks to accommodate coat hangers, offering more drying options during those sunny summer days. 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 best rotary washing line is reliable, sturdy and built to last. Three words everyone loves to hear when it comes to laundry products, especially considering the current cost of living. Okay, so the great British weather doesn’t always allow you to use it (that’s what the best heated airer is for). Still, when the sun finally appears, there is something particularly lovely about catching the scent of your favourite laundry detergent on the breeze and watching big white sheets billow from your kitchen window. The weather: Now, we know we cannot control the weather (otherwise, it wouldn’t rain half as much as it does). However, you still need to think carefully about it. For example, a freestanding airer would not be practical if you live in a particularly windy spot (unless you wanted your family’s clothing to end up in your neighbour’s garden.)
