I have been wanting one of these ever since I visited New Zealand years ago where every household in a rural area seems to have one.  I myself live in a rural area: VT.  We have strong winds and serious winters at our elevation.  I've only had this a few weeks, but it was very easy to install, slid right into the post holder and voila! So easy to stand in one place, spin it around to equally load all of our clothes.  We have two people in our household and it had lots of room left after hanging two loads on it.  Can't wait to hang our linens.  We also love the cover it came with, so when we are away or when we want to take it down for the winter, we can store it in our garage without it getting filthy.  Makes hanging the laundry very pleasing!  Thank you :)
