Leifheit 82001 Rotary Dryer Linomatic 500 Deluxe

I do not use a clothes dryer; I line dry all our clothes year around. In Wisconsin that means drying indoors in the heart of winter. Even so I line dry outside 9-10 months a year. I have coated aluminum line cord on a fixed line in the backyard but wanted to supplement it. I line dry for environmental reasons; it is also better for clothes plus I was raised this way.This clothesline is a piece of art. It works flawlessly and hold a full load of lighter weight wash. The lines are fairly fine cord and I'd not recommend hanging heavy blankets or rugs on them. It is perfect for clothes, towels and sheets/pillow slips. It allows me to make better use of a sunny spot in my yard. The fact that you can collapse it when done is an enormous bonus. I also plan on bringing it inside for the worst of winter.I spent a lot of time looking at other outdoor clothes lines and this one is the best made. Well worth the money. It came very well packed with clear instructions in English. Made in Germany. I am proud to support the growing line drying community by recommending this clothesline.

I had my eyes on this product since I lived in Germany 10 years ago. Many Germans there use this model for drying their clothes outdoor even in the colder seasons. It is very easy to install. We bought the screw-in ground peg from Leifheit (to use on our lawn) but according to my husband, the original product comes already with a suitable part for the ground. It is easy to use (open and close) and the surface area for clothing is very large (great for large families). The design is pleasing in terms of proportion and everything functions well. We also purchased the original Leifheit linomatic nylon bag and I intend to take it out from the ground and cover it and store it in our garage. With proper care this will likely last a very long time.

Light weight but sturdy, so my wife can carry and set it up on her own. We have used it for a month now and have had no problems. Surprisingly strong in moderate winds (5-10 mph) with cloths on or off. Dislike that the locking mechanism is plastic and not a stronger material this part may wear out after time but so far so good.

This rotary line clothes dryer is so much nicer than our old huge one that took up half the yard. It works exactly as advertised and folds and unfolds so easily. We set the base in concrete so it is very stable. My only wish is that is were a bit taller, but that is a small complaint. Overall, we are thrilled with it and it can fit a lot of wash. It is a bit more difficult to fit larger items on it because it does not have the long expanse of a traditional clothesline, but the convenience and neat look makes up for it.

Best rotary dryer. Built well and holds up a long time. Safes a lot of money not using the electric dryer.

I got rid of my ugly T-posts in the back yard and the 4 lines stretched across 20', making my yard look junky, and I took the plunge and got this fabulous dryer. It was simple to dig a hole, mix some sakrete and cement the holder into the ground. The dryer fits beautifully into the ground and is super easy to erect and let down. I can easily remove it and store it on my back porch out of the weather, if I want. However, just closing it protects the lines from rain during the warmer months. Today I hung one of my king-sized quilts out to dry and it fit just fine. I highly recommend this dryer.

I love my rotary drying rack. It holds so much! Great quality product! I haven't used my dryer since I got this a couple of months ago. The included ground peg is not good enough. I got the Leifheit 85606 Sew-In ground peg for use in our garden!

Great product. Sturdy and plenty of space.
