Some have legs and long wings to make the most of the space above a standard UK bath, but you can also find smaller tent-style designs that attach to the rim of the bath instead. Though a considerably pricier purchase, a heated airer means a wash load can dry more quickly without needing to rely on a radiator or a tumble dryer. Most winged models also have flat sections — either between the wings or between the leg rungs — that are great for drying delicates and smaller items.The wheels on the base make it easy to move around if you need to, and it can be partially open if you’ve got less washing so that it doesn’t take up too much floor space. So if you’re willing to compromise on time to help save the planet (or if you’re sick of tumble dryers shrinking your clothes) you’ve come to the right place. Whether you are washing for a family of five, or you’re living in a small studio flat with very little floor space, we’ve got you covered. It also comes with handy corner hangers that can be used to hold a delicates dryer, or even to dry shirts using clothes hangers. The longer top rack is a clever design feature too, as any washing that drapes over the edges won’t touch the items on the smaller racks beneath.

Sure, they’d do the job but they’re certainly not ‘the best’ considering you could have to repurchase them more often. It's stable, easy to erect, has plenty of rails arranged well, plus a section at the top for drying items flat and it fits perfectly in the bath which is out of the way but gets good sunlight. There’s a decent amount of drying area too, with four flat sections that you can either keep up or fold down, depending on the size of your laundry load.It clips together and holds a fair amount of washing but rather small if wanting to place several bath towels or sheets etc on it .

Due to their small capacity, radiator airers are great for hand towels or dish cloths, or as a second smaller area when only one or two items need drying. It’s also great for travel because the arms fold down for packing, and it can hang from balconies and bannisters. Key specs – Type: Winged; Open dimensions: 143 x 60 x 100cm (HWD); Closed dimensions: 104 x 60 x 9cm (HWD); Drying space: 13. The only sacrifice you’ll need to make is that it’s not as sturdy as more expensive clothes airers on the roundup, which means you’ll need to be careful not to snap the thinner bars with really heavy items such as dripping wet beach towels – items such as these would be best draped over multiple bars.With this, there’s no need to have air-drying clothes taking up space on the floor for days, and when you’re done drying it folds away like the other airers. Grooves in the base allow you to choose between two height settings, and little wooden bars at the bottom twist into position to hold everything securely in place.
