‘Dry 2 washing machine loads’ with £10 Lidl like £17 B&Q and £22 Tesco in stores now Lidl claims the item could make a 'weather-resistant and durable' option for homeowners A new accessory is now available at every Lidl store across the country, and it could be a life-saver for homeowners hoping to dry their clothes indoors. The supermarket, which has over 1,000 locations UK wide, claims it could make a "weather-resistant and durable" option - all at a budget price. Available for just £9.99, the 18m Clothes Airer can be found in the iconic 'Middle of Lidl Aisle' while stocks last. It is claimed it has space for "up to 2 washing machine loads" which could be especially useful with weather now a far cry from the scorching heatwaves of the summer. It's instantly obvious the item isn't the simple tiered airer that can be found in your average British household. Instead of the traditional vertical design synonymous with an airer, this one in particular takes advantage of width to dry your wet clothes. To add to its versatility, this Lidl accessory boasts a foldable design that could prove especially useful for smaller homes. Yes, it may stretch out to 180cm when fully deployed, but it can be folded away when not in use. Product features - full list - Space for up to 2 washing machine loads (8kg each) - Also suitable for large items of laundry - Total drying length: 18m - Can be folded out to a length of 1.8m - Folds flat to save space - Comfortable height - Weather-resistant and durable tubular steel frame with robust joints and floor-friendly caps - With a child safety lock to prevent accidental folding - Max. load: 17kg - Size (unfolded): L180 x W54.5 x H106cm - Size (folded): L128 x W54.5 x H3.5cm - 3-year warranty Shoppers hoping to find out more should visit the Lidl website. It bears a striking resemblance to high-end options available at other retailers. Take B&Q, for instance, which has the Foldable Clothes Airer for £16.99. The product description reads: "This white foldable clothes airer is a strong, space-saving solution for drying laundry indoors or outdoors. Designed with 22 wide bars, it provides up to 18 metres of drying space - perfect for towels, bed linen, or a full load of clothes. "With two winged extensions, you can easily hang longer items without creasing or overlapping. Made from premium stainless steel, this laundry airer offers a rust-resistant and weather-resistant build that can be used in any environment. Its foldable structure means it can be stored flat in tight spaces, ideal for homes with limited storage. Lightweight yet durable, the airer is easy to carry, open, and close, giving you convenience with every use." Then there's Tesco which stocks the all-too-similar Clothes Airer Drying Rack with a £21.99 price tag. Tesco explains: "Dry your clothes easily with this beautiful rack. This drying rack from Lifetime Clean offers space for all your clean laundry. "The rack is almost two meters wide and therefore good for hanging up a lot of laundry. After use you can fold the rack and store it easily. You can hang up the clothes conveniently so that everything gets nicely dry and is ready to use again." Both options have a similar look to the Lidl version, but there's one big difference, and it's nothing to do with how much it hits your wallet. Tesco and B&Q offer home delivery, an amenity not available at their budget supermarket rivals.
