Because it is so popular there are lots of rotary laundry lines and clotheslines to choose from. Here is a guide to choosing the best one for you.
What size do you need? Rotary styled laundry lines come in a variety of sizes for different sized households. If you have a very big family you can find rotary laundry lines with as much as 60 metres of line space. This rotary laundry line would be far too big for a singe person so do make sure you get the right size for your needs.
What colour would you like? Like most things nowadays laundry lines come personalized. If standard greens or creams don’t suit you some companies will colour yours to suit your taste.
Quality. A rotary laundry line is supposed to last a long time. It needs to be made from metal and the paint needs to be able to withstand the weather. It’s very important you check these things. A decent product will offer a guarantee.
The lines should be spaced well apart to give the clothes room to wave in the breeze. Clothes hung too close together take too long to dry.
Will you need to remove your rotary clothesline or laundry line? Some people never want to take theirs out while others will want to move theirs all the time for games and barbeques. Many rotary lines are designed to be permanent but the modern brands tend to be easily removable for those important occasions. Make sure you choose an easily removable one if you think you will need that.
Do you need your new rotary laundry line installed for you? Some companies offer this service to take out all the hassle for you.
Now that is the basics, but what about the special features?
Gear hoist. Some rotary laundry products come with a gear hoist to push your washing higher up in the breeze. Do you need this? If you have high fences and a still garden you might like the hoist to help your clothes dry quickly in the breeze.
Breeze brakes. While your washing needs the breeze you don’t want your rotary line spinning excessively in the wind, this is why breeze brakes are good.
Sheet separators. Make even king size sheets dry quickly.
Coat hooks. Excellent additions to quality rotary laundry lines for drying these bulky items.
