Brabantia - Lift-O-Matic - 60 Metres of Clothes Line - Adjustable in Height - UV-Resistant & Non-Slip Lining - Umbrella System - with Ground Spike 45 mm & Cover - Metallic Grey - ø 295 cm

Top Notch delivery by Stephen. I dont know if he will ever see this but I am really impressed by his customer care and politeness and the note he left with the smiley face on it. :-)The washingline of course, being a Brabantia is perfect and exactly what it is supposed to be. It really doesnt get any better than this. This is my 3rd Brabantia line in 40 years... the last one was a small 3 arm I gave to my mum as she needed a smaller one so we swapped. This one is to replace the rust bucket creaky old line she swapped for. I had had that line since my children were babies and as they are young adults now, a 5 year warranty goes a long long way. That line will out live my mum. My first line was one my nan gave me and pretty sure that was at least 10 years old then. I loved that line but had to leave it behind when I moved as it was concreted in. This new one is to replace that. I could wax lyrical about Brabantia washing lines, but if you know, then, you know. Dont waste money on cheap imitations or inferior brands, save up get a Brabantia, it will last you forever. (assuming you dont concrete it in or swap it with your mum!) Perfect washing line, easy to use, individual lines that dont get tangled, and as its a lift o matic is really easy to put up and down and have at different heights (important for the vertically challenged like myself) has a really nice cover and a decent lawn spike as well. All in all worth the money.

Product arrives in a large cardboard box that is about two meters long. It’s a nicely finished product. Looks expensive.It's mostly in one piece. Removing the outer plastic film and the ground-spike falls out, which has been split in half. I am not completely sure why they supplied it in two halves, but it only takes a minute to join them together.While the spike is strong, the moment I looked at it I realised it was not going in my soil. My back garden in heavy, compacted clay soil. No way it would go in to that. So, change of plan, I had to dig a "post hole" in ground and pop out for some quick-set concrete.I used a couple of pieces of wood and cable ties to point the pole straight up, then surrounded the spike with concrete, fairly dry so it didn’t ingress in to the hole in the spike, and left it be for a few hours. No doubt it will move, in time, but for the moment it’s vertical and strong.Using the line, it's very smooth to lift and nice and tall so you can get the washing well off the floor. It's also easy to adjust the line so the height is lower for people of a lesser loftiness.Everything works very well. Pleased with the purchase. It's worth the extra little money it costs.Recommended.

Really pleased with this. Good quality, easy to install, rain cover is the perfect fit. Can easily hang bedsheets and hold loads of washing.

Pros:1. Very robust once installed2. Large drying area for clothes3. Easy to put the arms up and downCons:1. Ground spike is VERY large (width & length), comes in parts and needs "constructing". The bolts provided didn't go in the drilled holes very easily at all so needed lots of effort to be done up using a different Allen key to that provided2. Per 1. above it takes a LOT of effort and strength to bang the large spike (approx 12-14 inches long) into the ground (just hope you don't have rocks or stone under there!)

Very easy to use due to different heights and although light it is very sturdy

Absolutely brilliant rotary washing line. The best I've owned. Really sturdy and very spacious. I can fit four loads of washing on it at a time. The perfect size for bed linen and larger items. Easy to fold up and down. Well worth spending the money as I've bought cheaper in the past and they weren't nearly as sturdy, and didn't last.

Sounds silly, but I love this rotary clothes line! Being able to air the laundry outside and having so much drying space has made a huge difference. I debated whether to get the 50 or 60m length, and gave serious consideration to the diameter versus size of the garden (all dimensions are available from Brabantia, but some suppliers gave confusing information) The 50m length is easily long enough - I think the product details suggest that it’s enough for 4 loads at a time! This size just about fits the width of a double bed sheet on the outermost lines. I chose a package which included the cover (although to be honest I don’t think that the frame would rust) but it keeps the airer neat and tidy when folded. It’s very unlikely that I’ll remove it when not in use, but the cap to cover the hole is a nice touch, and the lawn mower passes easily over it. I wasn’t expecting to receive the peg bag, which simply clips onto the line - but it’s both a practical and stylish addition. Knocking the spike into the lawn was a bit tricky but I managed. I think this is a more expensive brand than others, but it’s a high quality product and well worth the investment. Amazon offered the best deal for this product and it was delivered the next day. Very impressive.

This is so easy to use and is very sturdy.
