Rotary Clothes Lines
Another tedious shopping quest awaits:
I am trying to get a small rotary clothes line for my new place - All I can find are heinously overpriced Austral or Hills ones starting at nearly $300, and really too big for my little garden.
I was after something a little more like this one from Argos:
Three arm rotary clothes line
for about the same price...
Does anybody have any idea where I may find one? For a reasonable price? It's almost certainly cheaper to get one sent from the UK than pay for a Hills one...

Re: Rotary Clothes Lines
I'm sure I've seen basic ones in Kmart. Certainly weren't Hills prices but probably more than Argos prices though.

Re: Rotary Clothes Lines
Apart from the price, it is also far too big - I can only really accommodate a 2m diameter one in my garden.
Spartacus - Do you remember the brand of the one you saw? This is starting to get quite frustrating! Not everybody has huge plots of land for 3m plus diameter clothes lines!

Grrr... Just been to Bunnings, and they don't appear to sell the cheapy ones any more - The cheapest one is a Hills, which is $260.

These guys do the rotary ones (from $99) but they are bigger than 2m. What about a folding line, I had one at my last house (very small garden) and it was fine for us (family of 4)?

Re: Rotary Clothes Lines
Sad as I am, I brought mine over from the UK with us. It was new so I refused to leave it behind. Wouldn't have bought a new one when I did except my old one snapped about 6 weeks before we moved out and I couldn't cope without one. So glad I did bring it with me now
