Our Hills folding clothes line is 13 years old and needs replacing. The plastic caps on the arms is broken, the plastic caps that cover the line won't clip on, and it's generally old and tired. I was going to get another Hills, but saw the Austral range online at bunnings like this and this. Unfortunately Austral aren't in stock so we can't look before we buy. Has anyone used Austral? Any comments? ChatGPT seems to think they're more robust than Hills.
I also know about Stainless Steel Clothes Lines, but they look like more hassle to put up and down, using a button rather than semi automatic.
Any other suggestions? Looking for about 25 - 30m of line, double fold is handy in the current hills but not essential.
