    Hi everyone, not sure if this will help anyone, but I have had a leaflet through the letterbox today for the Original Factory Shop.
    They are selling a heated airer for £39 on offer.
    I don't need one as happy with my normal clothes airer as there is just the two if us now. But I hope this will help someone.
    Jue :)

    the one from the factory shop is nothing like the Lakeland ones.It is like a 'winged' airier so takes up quite a lot of space and is all on one level.My Lakeland one is 3 tiered but the shelves are hinged to allow for large items to hang down or to 'half fold' and put against the wall if short of space or for a smaller load.
    the only thing I would change is the flex length.Mine is only a metre so limits where it can go without an extension lead.

    I have one but find it takes a long time to dry anything if you just hang it on the rungs. It drys better if you drape the washing over it but that means you can only dry a couple of bits at a time :(

    I just layer everything flat on the rungs laying it all out with the heavy stuff on the bottom and the lighter stuff on the top. Sounds like it wont get everything dry but it does.

    Oh but be careful with football shirts with numbers or lettering. OH doesnt know this but his shirt got stuck to the rungs once!:eek:

    Sorry Siaoeh. But if it helps anyone I put on the airer at 8pm last night: 2 pairs of work trousers, 1 light jumper, 1 pair of kids chinos, 1 pair of 3/4 length jeans, 3 tshirts, 2 small towels and some socks. Took it all off at 7am and it was all bone dry expect the jeans and towels which need a bit longer.

    Drat, I'm annoyed I missed out on the 20% off deal...I'll need to keep my eye out to see if it appears again.
