ManY thanks for your positive review of our 50m rotary washing line. I think you are correct in asuming it will become easier to push up with use. When new and the lines are cold as at present (Due to the winter weather) there will be a certain amount of tension there to enable the lines to stay taught when loaded with wet laundry, if however, after a period of use you still feel that there is an an issue please give me call and i will rectify any problems for you.
