I guess you have to also take into account the sun factor as well. I waited over a year for a clothesline, so there is no need to rush I managed with clothes horses and a clothes dryer. I am sooo looking forward to my clothesline. Re: Clothesline type and reasons 62Nov 17, 2009 5:09 pm Jodie80 I'm getting a wall mounted one... just have to work out the perfect position for it down the side of the house!! I ended up getting a wall mounted one Jodie. I definitely can't fit as much on it as I used to on my normal one, BUT hanging shirts on hangers makes it a lot easier and I fit a lot more on. I have to do sheets on a separate day though. Re: Clothesline type and reasons 63Nov 17, 2009 7:36 pm Blaken Also think you get more room between each line on a regular hills hoist than on a fold out one. If I have a lot. Regards Blaken Surendettement Yep, you're right. I have to be very organised these days and wash regularly or I'm up the creek. Sheets don't fit, hey but it's adequate for the three of us, and it's compact and it's close to the laundry and in full sunlight Re: Clothesline type and reasons 65Nov 17, 2009 7:44 pm joles Stop answering the spammers SuH. No matter how much sense they make. HEY, I like him, let me talk to the spammer pLEASE...I wasn't even thinking then just sittin here tappin away.....OHHHHH I know the answer to this one better answer this dude WHOA! ROFLMAO God I'm a loser Re: Clothesline type and reasons 67Nov 20, 2009 8:41 pm bunky Hey guys, Great to see everyone offering suggestions. Like others i thought hills were the only brand of clothesline worth buying. I don't have much space down the side or in the backyard, so i'm going to visit the daytek factory in Preston, Melbourne and grab one which is apparently factory seconds! but it still has the 10 year warranty! Will let you guys know how it goes and what sorta condition 'factory seconds' is like. Thanks again to everyone for their suggestions! just on the daytek factory in preston... does anyone know if the service there is ok? would they help me with getting a post kit and all that as well? I know which clothesline I want, but the ppl at bunnings were not very helpful with seeling the accessories... I want to make sure I'm getting the right thing! thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to advise!

Re: Clothesline type and reasons 68Nov 20, 2009 8:51 pm Hi there, Daytek do have plastic edging which get cracked etc. Look at Austral and www.australclotheslines.com.au to find out more. I have booked one for $295 installed which is the largest fold out one they have.

They do sell the ground mounting kit, but seeing as you aren't that local I would call them first to make sure 'A bottle of wine contains more philosophy than all the books in the world.'

It's a 3000 x 1200 9 line clothesline (yes, that's 3m wide! Easily fit sheets without bunching...if you have the space), PLUS it includes an extra 3 line 'low line' making the total hanging space a whopping 36m, over 12 lines. It's all metal, including the corners, and is made in Australia. Mine is attached to the side of the house, but it does come with posts for ground installation. They will do any standard colour (mine's Paperbark). http://www.citylivingclotheslines.com.a ... ne_13.aspx I have a 7.5kg F&P washer, and can easily fit 2 full loads on it, even sheets and towels for 4 people at the same time, which I have never been able to do with the largest Hills line. The lines are spaced a little closer than what the Hills are (in SOME places, not all), but with some clever hanging, nothing touches and you get a nice air flow in between. I have never filled the complete line at one time, and I certainly don't wash everyday. I paid $249 delivered from NSW.
