Product Information

This rotary airer is adjustable to a range of heights and has 4 tension settings that are also easy to adjust. The Premium 30 metre Rotary Washing Line Kitis a neat and compact rotary washing line – perfect if you’re a small family or short on space in a small garden. The types of items you will be drying, and how big they are. Different rotary washing lines vary in how much space they have between their arms, and therefore how much room there is for drying. The Brabantia Rotary Washing Line is a premium model – this is evident in its build quality as well as its price. Unlike most rotary washing lines, this model can be used at many different heights with the arms still fully extended. The lowest height available, measured from the tops of the arms, is 129 cm, and the tallest option is 187 cm.

There is a soft grip handle, used to open and close the washing line, and the mechanism works well. It gives a choice of four different positions which help alter the tension of the line. Along with this construction, there are a couple of other features that make this rotary washing line likely to stand the test of time. For a strong construction, look for powder-coated steel and PVC lines. These stand up well against the elements. An included cover is useful to have, to keep the lines clean when not in use .If you’re after a large, value-for-money line, the BPIL Heavy Duty Rotary Washing Line is worth bearing in mind. This rotary washing line offers 50 m of drying space (although 40 m and 60 m options are also available) and comes with a free protective cover for when it’s not in use. It comes with a high-quality water-resistant protective cover, which isn’t just a basic tarpaulin bag; it has a neat appearance and a zip to help get it off and on easily. This protects the line when it isn’t in use. It can take approximately three to four small loads of washing in one go, has four retractable arms and is easy to open and close. There’s also a protective cover and ground spike included. Before removing the existing line, have a good look at how it is threaded and tied (taking a few pictures at this stage can be very helpful). Then, remove the old line. However, lines with three arms instead of four can be weaker, especially if they are not well made. This is because less arms are having to support the same amount of weight as a four-arm line.

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. In terms of price, this rotary airer sits in a mid-range position, and its build quality reflects that. It is generally sturdy, but may struggle with the weight and size of larger, heavier items like duvets. A ground spike comes included, to fit the 32 mm pole. Putting up this rotary washing line, and collapsing it down, is done using a system that’s similar to opening and closing an umbrella. It is simple and effective, and there are just three ‘open’ positions to choose between. For hanging longer items, you’ll want a rotary washing line that is around 180 – 200 cm tall . This can help prevent laundry from dragging on the ground. However, this may not be a practical height for everyone. Some of the best rotary washing lines are height adjustable , allowing the line to be lowered without affecting line tension. Speaking of line tension, make sure the washing line offers a way to adjust this. Being able to use this washing line at 129 cm makes it easier to drape heavier items like duvets, cushions and bed covers, without having to hold them high overhead. Woollen items can also be dried flat, without having to hang them and risk them losing shape.Firstly, your rotary washing line may have a couple of height options, if you’ve been using it on the lowest level, pushing it up further will tighten the line. Alternatively, you can manually tighten the line: It will be a lot easier to hang a king-size sheet on a rotary washing line that only has three arms.
