    Second time today I have recommended Brabantia! (The other item was an ironing board) We are on our second Brabantia rotary dryer in 28 years.

    Mine was from costco. Probably Brabantia. I have never put it away in winter, folded it down or even wiped it and it has lasted seventeen years so far.

    Mine is also brabantia. Had it 14 years, its out all year, never folded up or covered, and as good as the day I bought it!

    Mine is a Brabantia too, but I have the one that folds flat against the wall. I love it. It cost £70 which isn't cheap, but it is really strong, and does the job.
    I Believe in saving money!!!:T
    A Bargain is only a bargain if you need it!

    Mine is from Lidls - had it for years and cannot seem to break it!
    It's huge, takes up most of the garden and can be seen from space......!

    Thanks for all the replies. Brabantia sounds like a winner. And some discounted ones appear on fleabay. Will do a bit of research for best price before buying.

    Unfortunately I have no wall/sturdy post to use one of those neat pull out arrangments.

    Can't believe how pricey the branded ones are!! I mean for some tubular aluminium and some washing line and bits and pieces £60-100!! Still, I prefer to spend a decent amount for quality that will last.

    Thanks again.

    Better than spending £10 a year for one that only lasts a year or two
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    This looks good or nearly £10 total drying space is 30m ;)http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/8540414.htm
    will look at buying this for our new garden with a 100ft garden. Currently in a flat with 25m of drying space being shared by 4 flats. I currently use a rotary that Argos is selling for under £10, still going strong after two years and we are a family four and gets used nearly every other day. Weather permitting ;) it gets put back in the shed after each use.
