Minky 3 Tier Plus Clothes Airer, Silver

Very sturdy with lots of space. Good quality & worth the bit extra compared to others on Amazon that have lasted a lot less longer

Works really well. I had one in my other house. It worked so well, when I came to move into a new home, I bought another one. It does all that one wants it to at a decent price and lasts well too. It holds a full washing-machine load but takes up very little space when not in use.

This was bought to replace the previous and quite similar Minky clothes airer, which was the standard model (as opposed to this "Plus" version).The basic frame and the folding and fastening mechanisms appear to be the same, however this one adds some useful flip out hooks on each of the top corners (see photo), from which you can hang a single garment or up to three garments on hangers. Whilst this extra hanging space is useful, there are a couple of flaws here... First of all, the way that the blue corner hooks stick out makes it very easy to snag yourself on them as you are walking past the airer, which can be annoying and a little painful. Also, when they are folded in, they are quite difficult to open out again, as there is not any kind of tab to get hold of, i.e., the blue section folds in and fits very snugly into the black plastic retainer, so snugly that if you want to unfold it again you really have to get your fingernails involved to get it open.Another slight flaw in the design (which I have again tried to show in the photos) is the blue plastic part which comes out of the swivel joint and inserts into the metal tubular frame parts. This is exactly the same as my previous model, on which this plastic part eventually snapped. To be fair it gave a few years of service, so you can't mark it down too much, but be aware that (like most things which have an element of plastic construction) it will eventually fail.On the plus side, the airer can hold quite a lot of laundry and does not take up much room for the amount with which you can load it up. The side hooks make this model extra capacious, although that extra weight may have the potential to shorten the life of the frame.Another positive is that neither this or my previous Minky showed any signs of corrosion.All in all, not perfect, but a good performer and will probably last an adequate length of time to make it worth the money.

This is a BRILLIANT clothes airer ... Its SOOOO Sturdy (6 stone dog and 2 x Teenager proof) ... I was so worried it would be flimsy... how WRONG WAS I !!! ... Literally no assembly required as it just pops. I can easily take it inside and out. Shame on Me for Doubting (I think personally to myself as I'm always so skeptical with products). That will teach me as it carries an entire wash load of heavy washing. ITS FAB

This product is the best ive bought! It's sturdy, very easy to assemble and carrys it weight excellently. The length and hight are just ideal. Am definitely buying a second one.

I had to write a review because there seemed to be so many more negative than positive reviews about it that I almost didn’t purchase it - but out of the others on here I think I made the right choice!My washing line broke and needs a new post so I decided an airer was needed as I love to put clothes outside to dry in the sun.It’s so easy to stand it up and I can do it with one hand. It is light but strong and stays up securely and has good clips to keep it stable.It is ideal for inside or outside and has plenty of space and strong enough for drying a whole load of washing too!I love the brushed chrome look of the bars and the blue hanger clips are a great addition as you can also use them to secure the edges of drying items too!I’m very pleased with my purchase. It folds down to a neat and compact size that’s easy to store away too! Highly recommend!

Perfect. Sturdy, easy to put up and folds flat. Holds a good amount of clothes .

This is a useful airer for when space is a bit tight. We use ours for all our children's clothes, which we cannot tumble otherwise they end up being the size of a crisp packet.The airer is tall enough to put adult trousers on the top rail without trailing on the floor, the mid level is enough for a jumper and then fill up the bottom level with underwear. As mentioned it works great for baby clothes but for adult clothes its difficult to put a full washing load out on it and is best suited for the odd item that has to be left to air dry.The scissor mechanism is useful to pack it down into a small profile, however, watch your fingers during operation! The release mechanism is low down and right under a pivot point so when you release the catch the top portion folds down and can trap your fingers. It's worth laying it on its side to fold it away.One issue I have with them is they are not very strong if you apply a lots of heavy wet clothes to them, they tend to compress down a lot. The weak point is the legs just under the pivot point and they tend to bend if you load them up too much.Being tall, when fully loaded they can catch the wind and can be a bit unstable outside if there is a bit of a breeze.Would I recommend it? Yes, but only as a method of hanging out the odd bit of adult clothes. For childrens clothes they are great and more than capable of getting a full load of them on one of these.
