One of our regular customers was just saying she still uses her Flatley airer several times a week and it still looks like new. She bought it when her youngest child had just been born. She is now 42 years old 😯 .
We had a Flatley clothes airer / drier when I was kid. Tesco Direct are selling a more modern version called a DriBUDDI for £57.99. See the old ideas are still out there. They might change the name but the products are still out there somewhere.
