It attaches to the wall with a hook which means it can simply be clipped to remove it when it’s not needed. The protective casing is UV stable and the special bracket means the whole product can be removed when not in use. Although I had used them occasionally before lockdown, they came into their own during and after it.

While the testing period was only 3 days, the Best Pick product (Vileda) has been used many times since then and as of August 23rd 2022, there are no issues to report. For homes without the space for a conventional rotary this Retractable Reel is ideal for small gardens patios and balconies and gives a whopping 30m of drying space. I drilled directly into the brick face as that’s the toughest part of the wall and I wound the hook into a nearby tree trunk.

When the Town was in lockdown they delivered free to your door even if you only wanted a bag of screws. Over the years I have made many purchases from Wades, including washing machine, TV, fridge, Dyson vacuum cleaner and various hardware items. Large, heavy items are sometimes delivered on a pallet so you will need to ensure you have assistance with carrying the product. We may not be able to deliver some large items (eg ironing boards) to some areas of Scotland (including Highlands) or offshore locations (including Channel Isles, Northern Ireland, Isles of Man, Wight, Scilly, Orkney and Shetland). I looked in detail at the Minky retractable washing line and the thousands of reviews it has received online and while the product is similar, it doesn’t appear as sturdy.

I used to be lazy and put my radiators on just to dry my washing, but with the current cost-of-living crisis and skyrocketing gas bills, I purchased the two highest-rated and best retractable washing lines I could find and put them to the test. The rest of the product is made from hard plastic, and upon inspection, I couldn’t find any obvious weak spots, although an all-metal product would obviously be much stronger. Daniel conducted a meta-analysis of hundreds of online reviews for dozens of popular retractable washing lines and then selected the top two for testing. The backing plate, which is made from steel and has two pre-drilled holes, feels really strong, and I don’t believe this would ever break.Based on my experience; if you extend the washing line up to 10 metres, you won’t need a pole to prop it up. There are plenty of retractable washing lines out there and but Vileda and Minky are the most popular brands.
