The only issue I’ve had is that I managed to break the handle that winds it up and down. To be honest this was probably my fault, it was raining and I was trying to wind it down as quickly as possible so was being pretty rough with it!
Fantastic customer service, they sent me out a replacement handle free of charge.
I’d definitely buy this product again, my mum also has one – hers is older than mine and is equally in great condition.
I’d recommend buying a cover to go over the top to keep it in great condition when it’s not in use.
I wanted a washing line raised and lowered by turning the handle. This does it to a certain extent but there is still a button to push to lower the line. Which depending on the state of strength in my thumb I can operate or no
However, mixed feelings, the fold rails are good and the line quality has improved.
But you want to fold it together the plastic 4 position moulded clips are poor they don’t how the bars the fall out again???
There is also no weather cover?
100 and they have to buy a cover poor.
I bought this four arm 60m Vileda rotary to replace one that has given good service for over ten years and was still functioning, but I had concerns that I was tempting fate to continue it’s use as the plastic covering over the lines was fracturing in numerous places (didn’t want to find one day that the clean washing was all over the damp lawn !). Yes, this is an expensive product, but I was happy in my mind to replace like with like. I’m a firm believer that paying for the right tool for a job is a good investment in the long term. I was even able to use the original ground socket to ‘plant’ the new line in (so now I have a spare should I want to relocate it). Because of my experience with the pensioned off Vileda rotary, I have been happy to provide ratings as if I had my new one in service for quite a while.
I think it looks very smart and appears much sturdier than previous ones that we have had, centre post is nearly 3 inches in diameter. If you wind the handle up the inner post goes up and will lift the top a good foot at least higher and gets the clothes out of the reach of our naughty dog. Comes with a well made ground socket that you pop it in then twist a collar in to lock it in place. Would suggest you dig a straight sided, hole 10-12 inches square and 18 inches deep and cement in in with a full bag of postcrete fencing post mix. Press the red button on the top collar and it slides down the centre shaft which folds the arms in out of the way and they clip in to the top collar. Undo the bottom collar ( 1/4 turn ) and lift the whole thing out for storage then pop the nice red bung in the hole to seal the ground socket and leave it looking smart. This sounds simple but previous ones have had a steel spike in the ground and after lifting the airer out of it to cut the lawn I could never find the bloody hole again.
Tip: When first assembled I couldn’t get the inner post to wind up and down reliably and a quickly answered email to Vileda suggested the inner post hadn’t fully located in the handle mechanism and they were spot on, gave the top a good shove downwards and sure enough it clicked in and now works perfectly.
