This is exactly what I was looking for - holds a lot of laundry and it is easy to set up and fold down for storage when not in use.  Brings back memories of growing up in a family of 6 and one of our chores was to hang the laundry and bring it in.  Just waiting for the first rain storm that will send us scurrying out to get the laundry off the line before it gets wet!  Very happy with my purchase and looking forward to saving money on energy bills, too.
