We've got a Brabantia one that's been fine for the last eight years. Can't complain about that.l

We've got one, I'll ask the wife what it is. I try to avoid it as much as possible.

You need some bits of scaffold, a welder and some nylon line

I've got one of the brabantia wall mounted ones. I had one at the old marital home and it worked flawlessly so as soon as I got my own palce, put one in the garden.

We had one like Jimmy’s in our last place. Very tidy, loads of space but as a negative, it doesn’t rotate obviously

No welder needed, just use plenty of scaffold clamps.Mito Man wrote: Sun May 22, 2022 7:26 pm You need some bits of scaffold, a welder and some nylon line
We have a 2 tier garden, only way to run a washing line at split heights.

If you have 3 or 4 sheets, it’s handy to be able to rotate them into the sun or wind for even drying.

As one of the lucky bastards with a south facing garden I have no need for rotatabley drying appendages, so make do with standard washing line

Thank you for your inputs. I have purchased a Brabantia one online. These are exciting times.
