Making laundry a breeze.
Once upon a time, bamboo poles carrying wet clothes were common sights around HDB blocks. But these days, many homeowners are turning to a more modern-day alternative: automated laundry racks.
Given that not every unit has proper ventilation for indoor drying, and newer units either don’t come with pole holders or have the necessary floor space for a dryer, these nifty tools have been a true game-changer, with additional features like ionisers and heaters that let homeowners do their laundry regardless of weather conditions and time of day.
If you’re in the market for an automated laundry rack of your own, here are our top picks:
1. Steigen – sophisticated German-engineered laundry systems
Steigen is probably one of the most well-known household brands among Singaporean homeowners, and for good reason. Its German-engineered automated laundry systems are equal parts sleek and functional, with cutting-edge features that promise clean, fresh laundry no matter the time of day.
As much as their existing laundry racks have been deemed by many as best-in-class, their all-new Solar Evo Series (Gen 2) takes things up a notch. With a new and improved design, these laundry systems possess wider air vents that produce better airflow, which produces dry, fluffier clothes in a shorter amount of time.
Furthermore, each model in the series also uses a set of 4 Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor fans that are more energy-efficient and durable in generating faster wind speeds to dry clothes faster. It’s a first in the industry, which speaks volumes about Steigen’s innovative design.

2. GoodLiving – first in Singapore with a quad fan system
A UV light feature is an effective tool against dust mites and bacteria – which is especially useful for homeowners with allergies, or for those with young kids. Fortunately, that’s exactly what you get with the GoodLiving Premium Pro – and as a bonus, it’ll automatically turn off after 30 minutes of usage, thus keeping energy costs low.
Anyone who uses standing fans regularly will know how limited the wind coverage can be. However, GoodLiving’s quad fan system – the first among laundry racks in Singapore – enables it to generate wind more evenly, thus ensuring that every garment can dry no matter where they’re placed on the rack.
Plus, it’s fitted with 9 horizontal bars, as well as poles that can be extended all the way up to 240cm – which doesn’t just let you hang more things, but also creates sufficient room for longer garments like bedsheets and tablecloths without needing to fold them.

4. Amoresol – built-in smart functions that save energy

With an emphasis on safety and energy efficiency, their Sol Classic system is built with an auto-LED light that doesn’t just turn on upon detecting movement, but also switches off if no motion is detected for 1 minute.
Additionally, their Sol Pro system takes things a step further.

5. SINGGATE – space-saving laundry racks that can hold large loads
When you live in a large household, hanging the laundry can be hard when a) your laundry rack can only take so much weight, and b) there isn’t enough room for everyone’s clothes.

It also boasts a maximum drop down height of 130cm and can be easily controlled with a remote.
