What is a "clothes horse"?
A clothes horse, also known as a clothes rack or drying rack, is a freestanding or wall-mounted structure used for drying or airing clothes. It typically consists of two or more horizontal bars or rods supported by a frame, with feet or brackets to keep it stable or fixed to a wall. Clothes horses can be made of various materials, including wood, plastic, and metal, and come in different sizes and shapes to accommodate different clothing items. They are a practical and eco-friendly alternative to using a clothes dryer and are especially useful for delicate or bulky items that cannot be dried in a machine.
