Having recently purchased the Brabantia HangOn Laundry Drying Rack in the sleek Matt Black finish, here’s my breakdown of its strengths and weaknesses as an owner:Pros:Ample Drying Space in a Compact Design: With 25 meters of drying space, this rack offers plenty of room for multiple loads of laundry without taking up too much floor space. I was able to hang everything from T-shirts to towels in one go, making it perfect for small to medium households or for drying larger items.Stylish, Modern Aesthetic: The matt black finish gives the drying rack a contemporary look that blends well in any room. It's more stylish than the typical white or metallic racks and looks much less intrusive if you leave it out between laundry days.Adjustable and Foldable for Versatility: The adjustable wings make it easy to customize the layout based on the size and type of clothing I’m drying. When it’s not in use, the rack folds down smoothly and is compact enough to store in a closet or behind a door, making it ideal for small spaces.Durable and Sturdy Build: This Brabantia rack is impressively sturdy. It holds a considerable amount of laundry without bending or feeling wobbly, even when loaded with heavier items. The quality metal construction feels like it will last for years, so I feel confident that it’s a good investment.Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Choice: Brabantia’s commitment to sustainability is an added bonus. Knowing the rack is made with high-quality, sustainable materials and comes with a solid warranty makes it even more appealing.Cons:Price Point: The HangOn Laundry Rack is a bit pricier than some other drying racks on the market. Although the quality and design justify the cost, it may be over budget for those looking for a more basic, no-frills option.Not Ideal for Large Households: While it offers decent drying space, it might fall short for larger families with high laundry demands. It’s excellent for singles, couples, or small families, but those with extensive laundry needs may still require an additional rack or drying solution.Limited Outdoor Use: This rack is primarily designed for indoor use. Although it could be used outside in fair weather, the matt black finish and metal parts might be prone to fading or rust if left outdoors regularly. It’s best to bring it inside when not in use.Setup Takes Some Space When Extended: Although the rack folds down compactly, when fully extended, it does take up a fair amount of floor space, especially with the wings open. If space is tight, this can be a bit of an issue, particularly in smaller rooms or apartments.Overall Verdict:The Brabantia HangOn Laundry Drying Rack is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a stylish, high-quality indoor drying solution. It’s compact yet spacious, durable, and versatile, making it well-suited for modern homes where both function and aesthetics matter. The higher price may be a drawback for some, but its sturdiness and design make it worth the investment for smaller households. Just keep in mind the limitations with outdoor use and larger laundry needs, and this rack should serve you well for years.

I bought a cheap clothes airer from a high street store... It collapsed and broke within two weeks.My previous one to that was more sturdy, though annoying as bars and spokes kept falling off!!After searching for a decent, robust clothes horse, I found this one. Finally the search is over!This brabantia is strong, robust, easy to assemble, and fold. Well worth the extra money.I do a lot of washing and this has lots of space, and no bars buckle or fall off!It's a bit heavier than cheaper models, but it's sturdy, and folds easily and flat.

Excellent drier. Sufficiently big for most of our needs. Strong and solid. We really appreciate the possibility to make it higher. Great value for money, as it feels like it will last many years.

Great drying rack, looks very smart and is incredibly sturdy. Can fit a lot of laundry on it - very impressive

Bought to use outside for towels and other heavy items which take longer in the tumble dryer - with a wish to use less electricity. Works well! Means no permanent, ugly washing line fixture outside, as is stable enough to leave outside on a fairly windy day. Can swap around angles to, which allows long trousers, like jeans to not “drag” on the floor. Pretty good value from well known brand. Easy to erect and dismantle; very little storage space required. Would recommend.

Great rack, very sturdy, the best I’ve owned and has lasted well. Worth the extra as nice and strong. Easy to use, no assembly needed. Rust resistant. Quite heavy but substantial. A good sized drying rack. I expect this to last me many years

Like many in current times, I am refusing to use the tumble dryer. We are lucky enough to have a low energy dehumidifier with a laundry setting. So, in recent months I have set myself the task of finding the perfect airer to use alongside it and I have gone through a few, which is a shame, as they were wastes of money. I should have just bitten the bullet and purchased this one, as although it was expensive, in the long run I'd have saved myself about £80 in airers that just weren't as good! This does not take up much floor space, but gets more on it. It is easy to open and I like the fact that you can place washing on the bottom of it, but it is high enough that unlike the last one I tried, washing doesn't drag onto the carpet. I also like the fact that the arms are able to be placed in many different ways. I tend to use it with them fully up, as it fits where I have it, but you can have them so they are lower down if required. It seems sturdy, which had been a concern and although I haven't tried it, I know I could get more than one load of washing on it. I tend to put one on and space it out, as I find that it then dries quicker. It takes up little room when folded down and I have it stored behind the door in our back bedroom when not in use. I am a big fan of this companies products and they must feel confident with this as it is offered with a 5 year warranty. This has been christened Betty the Bat airer, as the way I have it up, it does remind me of a bat flying! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this product to others.

The rack is solidly made and looks like it will last for years. I've used Brabantia products for years, and this one is as well made and reliable as the others that I've had. It's very simple to put up, and then very easy to move around even when loaded with laundry. It's a really nice bit of kit and will last for ages (I think).I had ones from a couple of other brands that sell on here, and they both broke within a few months of use. It's unlikely that this one will, so it's worth the extra money. Honestly, it's a pleasure to use.
