Umbrella-shaped clothesline
Retractable clothes line
Aug 2001
With the energy crisis and hot weather I would like to dry some laundry
outside. Does anyone know of a source for a retractable clothes line. I could
only find a very flimsy stand for delicate laundry drying needs.
Thanks
The Vermont Country Store has a retractable clothesline for $19.95.

I saw a heavy duty retractable clothesline at Real Goods (at Gilman and
10th) last fall. It was around $20.

I just bought one last week at the Ace Hardware on Grand Ave. in Oakland.
It extends to 40 feet and cost about $12, I think. Call first to make sure
they have them in stock b/c they told me I got the last one that day.

We are looking for a laundry stand that looks a bit like a large
umbrella. We want to line-dry
our laundry but don't have a good set-up for a long clothes line. Where
can we find such a
stand? Petra
Try Orchard Supply Hardware on Ashby in Berkeley. They carry what you
want, its
called a ''clothes dryer''. Get the sturdiest one they have, as the
wind has broken several of
mine over the years. Nevertheless, they are fairly inexpensive and
worth using instead of an
automatic dryer. Nancy
