Whether you re switching to air drying for your laundry or looking for an upgrade for your current clothesline situation, this extra large parallel clothesline dryer is a smart and efficient solution. The dryer is designed with two main components: a galvanized steel post and aluminum top with durable plastic clotheslines. The top pivots, so you can easily turn it to reach every inch of clothesline when loading or unloading the dryer. This clothesline comes with a plastic ground sleeve that should (ideally) be cemented into the ground for maximum stability. When in use, the post rests securely in the ground anchor with the aluminum top in place. When not in use, the aluminum top folds down and the pole can be removed from the ground anchor, so you can remove the dryer during inclement weather (which we recommend) or if you otherwise need to remove obstacles from your yard. However, the steel and aluminum are galvanized, so they won t rust if left out. The clothesline comes ready to assemble in just three parts, with the clotheslines pre-strung.
