Leifheit Linomatic 500 Deluxe Rotary Clothesline, Rotating Washing Line for Outdoors, Umbrella-Style Clothes Horse with Ground Socket

Product Information

The intelligent design doesn’t stop there though. Included with the rotary airer is a metal ground spike which not only means that the device does not need to be concreted in, but also means that it can be taken out and positioned elsewhere at any point. Add to this the high-quality of the pole and rotating section, built using strong durable metal which makes this rotary clothesline totally weatherproof. Brabantia has also included technology to help the top element rotate in even the slightest of breezes to increase drying speed.

When referring to a rotary washing line you may see that manufacturers or reviewers (like us at Washing-Line) use the term ‘loading position’. This term simply means the lowest point at which the rotary washing lines’ clotheslines are still tight so that you can peg your washing on. Depending on your height and physical capabilities the loading position is important when considering which is the best rotary washing line to buy. Designed using the traditional umbrella operating system, Livivo has added 4 different height positions to very the tautness of the clotheslines whilst also making it easier to load with wet washing. The grip handle is soft, comfortable and safe to use, so you don’t need to worry about pinching your hand when opening or closing it. What we really like about this rotary airer is the combination of simplicity and quality design. Livivo claims to have used their own Whirligig heavy-duty rotary washing line as inspiration for this. The results, well they speak for themself. It does not just look good, the Deluxe 500 model is built from strong aluminium which provides it with extreme durability, whilst also being lightweight and with no risk of rust. The practicality is also a benefit with three different clothesline lengths to choose from. These include choices of 40m, 50m and 60m, with the longest outside length of the 50m model being over 2 meters. This makes it great for drying larger materials such as bed sheets or blankets. Like the Brabantia rotary airer, it also has the added drying space for delicate clothes with purpose-built holes for clothes hangers. Another thing we love about this design is how the clotheslines retract into the rotating arms when collapsed. This is great for two reasons. Firstly, it keeps them protected from being exposed to the weather when not in use. Secondly, it makes the rotary airer look so clean, tidy and even stylish when not in use. This is perfect if you are looking for a rotary clothesline that is both practical and fitting with the rest of your outside space’s design.

The second place in our best rotary washing line review goes to the Leifheit Deluxe 500 rotary washing line. Leifheit has created its own operating mechanism for this rotary clothesline which uses a pull cord to extend and a button to collapse the rotating airer section. At Washing-Line we couldn’t believe how easy this device was to use, allowing you to open and close it without having to bend or stretch. Vileda has used strong steel to build this rotary clothesline and coated it in weatherproof paint to extend its lifetime. It is installed using a ground spike, saving you the hassle of concreting the rotary airer into your outside space. Also giving you the freedom to move it into different positions or put it away when it’s not in use. The no-nonsense approach continues with the Vileda 4-arm rotary dryer coming in one size at 45m. This is more than enough clothesline length for a family and is roughly the equivalent of 4 wash loads.

How To Return A Product With room to hang several loads of washing, at the widest point there's space to hang a full size bedsheet or duvet cover. Strongly woven from polyester, the washing line cord will serve you well for years to come.The average rotary washing line can hold between 10 and 17kg of washing, depending on how well everything is distributed across the arms of the airer, with each individual line able to withstand around 2kg worth of washing. This is more than the majority of home tumble dryers can accommodate, with most offering a capacity of 6 to 10kg. How much should I spend? The final model to make our best rotary washing line review is the Vileda 4-arm rotary dryer. This is simply just a traditional rotary washing line. At Washing-Line we have a soft spot for classic ‘does exactly what it says on the tin’ devices. As you would expect Vileda have opted for the umbrella operating mechanism to open and close this rotary washing line and it works really well. The device has 3 different adjustable heights to hang washing at, with the lines taut and straight in each. This makes loading the rotary airer with wet washing really easy and convenient. Sagging Clotheslines:Sagging is an issue commonly associated with all different types of washing lines, not just rotary airers. This is caused by several reasons including too much weight on the line, natural deterioration after extended use and incorrect use. To combat sagging clotheslines you can shorten the clothesline to return the tautness or replace the clotheslines altogether. At Washing-Line we would recommend the second option of replacing the washing line as tightening a line can cause it to snap. The Linomatic 400 Easy provides a 40 metre line length, so that up to four loads of laundry can be dried at once. With the longest line length of 1.86 metres on the outer line, the Linomatic 400 Easy fits into a small garden or on a spacious terrace, and is even wide enough for larger items such as bed sheets, tablecloths and bath towels. The typical rule is that the lower the loading position the better as they are more accessible to everyone. In addition, a high loading position may require the user to stretch or stand on something to reach the rotary washing line. This is undesirable as both carry a risk of injury. What are the common problems with rotary clotheslines?

Similarly to the length of clothesline you also need to consider the strength. When talking about rotary washing lines this is referred to as load capacity, and it is basically just a fancy way of saying the amount of weight that the clothesline can hold. The developments in clothesline quality mean that this is no longer a real worry. However, it is always worth considering a high load capacity if you need to regularly dry items or materials that are heavy when wet. Having a decent load capacity means that clotheslines won’t begin to sag, or even possibly snap under the weight of wet washing. Accessories The Leifheit clothesline is not only particularly stable and high-quality, but also offers space for up to three washing machine fillings. The clothesline is weather and UV resistant and made of tear-resistant material! The biggest and most beneficial feature of a rotary washing line is its ability to rotate when the wind blows.
