Easy to install with easy-to-follow instructions, great customer service and super speedy delivery from the moment of ordering. I can't fault the product or the sales team. Thank you for my new post-to-post washing line!

Fantastic service from Lifestyle. Salesperson was very knowledgeable and provided advice and assistance after having my previous clothesline for 25 yrs. Whole process was seamless. Highly recommended.

Austral Retractaway Clothesline
The Austral Retractaway Clothesline and post is now in place in the back courtyard and working well. It's pulls out easily when we need it and then retracts back when not in use.

Retractable clothesline a great solution for our backyard
We had to remove our old Hills hoist when adding a spa and landscaping our backyard, so the Austral Retractable clothesline was the ideal solution. It sits unobtrusively on the side of the house and is easily walked out to attach to the pole on the other side of the deck, then can be quickly put away again when we are entertaining. The five lines provide plenty of space and the company was great to deal with
