Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The benefits of air drying clothes are many--fabrics last longer, energy bills run lower, and clothes and sheets naturally smell better when hung outside--not to mention the health benefits of spending a few minutes outdoors in the sunshine. This parallel-style clothes dryer features 30 vinyl-coated lines that provide 210 feet of linear drying space. All the drying lines come pre-strung and ready to use with no assembly required. The unit offers durable construction with steel arms, a high-impact plastic post cap and slide, and a two-piece post made from corrosion-resistant galvanized steel. A plastic ground sleeve anchors the post into the ground, and the arms can be folded down for compact storage when not in use. The clothes dryer measures 84 by 72 by 72 inches.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT CLOTHES TREE, August 1, 2008

This review is from: Household Essentials 4000 30-Line Outdoor Parallel-Style Clothes Dryer with Steel Arms (Kitchen)

I BROUGHT THE WHITNEY CLOTHES TREE BECAUSE I OWNED ONE BEFORE. THE LAST ONE I OWNED WHICH I USED 3 TIMES A WEEK TO HANG OUT OUR FAMILY WASH LASTED ALMOST 8 YEARS! (WOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER BUT KIDS ARE HARD ON THINGS) SO I KNEW WHEN IT WAS TIME TO REPLACE IT I WOULDN'T GET ANY OTHER KIND. UNLIKE THE ONES IN THE LOCAL HARDWARE/HOME IMPROVEMENT CENTERS THIS ONE IS HEAVY DUTY AND HAS MORE LINES FOR DRYING SPACE. THE STEEL ARMS ARE STRONG AND IT GOES UP AND DOWN EASILY. THIS IS A GREAT VALUE!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Was Looking For, December 20, 2008

TAB (California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Household Essentials 4000 30-Line Outdoor Parallel-Style Clothes Dryer with Steel Arms (Kitchen)

After investigation I decided to purchase the Whitney Design 4000 Clothes Dryer. I haven't regretted it. I live in an off-grid situation in the high desert and this is perfect. It is well-made and roomy and turns in the breeze. We get some extreme wind out here, but I haven't used it on really windy days, although the clothespins would probably give before the dryer. When I was looking into these I had alot of trouble understanding how it was held in position as it is not in the product description, and I believe it should be. You will need to set their sleeve in the ground with cement. Then there is an extension pole that fits in the sleeve and then the pole with the umbrella dryer fits in the extension pole. I used the quick drying cement you just pour in the ground and add water, so this was a fairly simple procedure. After the sleeve is secured, this is a very sturdy clothesline. Easy to put up and take down. Highly recommend and a bargain at this price.

This clothesline is fine in all ways. One issue I did have was that it needed to be cleaned! There was grease on the poles, arms and also on the lines - not easy to remove. And why should I have to be cleaning it anyway??? Perhaps the grease was to keep it from rusting in storage(?). I have no idea.... But it really had to be cleaned before it could be used - no point putting clean clothes that are going to be blowing against the poles, hung on the lines, etc., only to be getting the grease on them!
