The wings on this rack set flat for drying knitwear that would stretch on a hanger, or angle up for towels and longer items - the support arms just move to a different notch. Top bars are 4 in apart and the middle ones 2.8 in, spacing that keeps thick and thin garments from touching. A bottom rack takes shoes, slippers and hats. Steel pipe with plastic joints in 16 and 8 mm diameters, rated 26.4 lbs. It opens to 54.5 x 22 x 36.5 in and folds to 3 in thick against a wall. White frame with black fittings and non-slip feet.
