Small
I feel foolish for not paying attention to the size before buying this. That’s my fault, so I am rating the actual product, but suggesting you pay attention to size if you are looking for a bigger laundry basket. Otherwise it’s wonderful, folds flat and I can slide it under my bed when not using it. But it’s small, too small for a full load of clothes for 2 people. I started using it to gather miscellaneous items my family leaves laying around the kitchen and living room when I’m cleaning so it makes it easy to gather junk to declutter, then I dump it, fold it down and slide it under my bed.

Great for RVs and small spaces
We ordered two of these for use in our RV. It folds up flat for easy storage when not in use, and easily unfolds when you need it. We bought two; one for used towels, and the other for laundry. They fit perfectly in the bottom of our tiny wardrobe. They seem slightly smaller than a standard sized laundry basket, so keep that in mind, but for small spaces it’s great.Pros:1. Folds flat for easy storage2 smaller size fits in tight spaces3. Quality is good, no issues with breakage after a year of light useCons:1. A little smaller than a standard laundry basket, check the dimensions first.2 can be a little tricky to fold flat the first time

Small & Cute, but Sides Are Weak
This is an attractive laundry basket. It has a smaller capacity than the typical laundry basket- Hint: that’s probably why it costs less than others. I was looking for a smaller collapsible basket for my needs. The biggest problem with this is that the sides are very thin and weak. If I fill the basket to capacity, the sides collapse. I know it’s always a balance between it flattening easily or too easily. This one folds up too easily. When I do flatten it, the sides don’t fold down into one another like typical collapsible baskets, they just fold on top of another and then it doesn’t get flat without me having to do some adjustments. See photos. So, I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to keep it. I’m guessing that it will only get weaker with continued use, so it may be useless in a few months.Update: 5/24 I ended up keeping the basket, but I wish I’d have returned it. I ended up throwing it away because it was basically useless after a few months. Collapsed all the time and wouldn’t hold more than 3-4 small items.This isn’t a keeper. It’s a skipper!

Great lil’basket!
I really love this basket and I would recommend it. I have a mini portable washer and dryer and this basket is just the right size. It can fit the whole load (these portable machines hold 1/2 of a typical small load). It’s perfect for small spaces and apartment living. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because it’s a little annoying to fold flat and requires some MacGyvering. It’s not a deal breaker as it is still sturdy and perfect for my purposes. I also love it’s color.

Collapses whenever I put laundry in it!
This basket is definitely small as stated. Too small for a regular size load of laundry. But that doesn’t really matter as anything more than 1 or 2 small items collapses the basket. This laundry basket is definitely the worst basket I have ever had. And, as I have been doing laundry for about 60 years, that is not a distinction that you would look for in a laundry basket! I find it impossible to put even a half load of laundry in this basket without the sides collapsing and clothes ending up on the floor! I would not recommend this laundry basket for any reason, unless your goal is to be totally frustrated each time you attempt to load your laundry in the basket to transport it to the washing machine. I even felt guilty donating mine as some poor unsuspecting soul is going to end up with it. But I didn’t want it to end up in a landfill. Hopefully a single person with minimalist tendencies will buy it and enjoy transporting 2 or 3 items at a time. Good luck!

For Small Loads Only
I bought this specifically because I have a microscopic apartment and a tiny panda washer so I needed something that would be just large enough to handle a full load for my size washer. I do agree with others that it is too small for a regular sized load of laundry but if you’re using an amount proportional to the basket it keeps its shape and does the job. It’s a little hard folding it, but nothing crazy. If you have a small washer and no storage space, I do recommend it.

A nuscance to use…
Purchased this smaller basket as a secondary laundry basket to my ‘regular’ sized one.I Intended to keep this one folded up next to my hamper until needed- I live in a tiny house w/ an outdoor-shed laundry area (common in the south.) This has not fit my needs as well as intended. At first, it worked as expected, with the only CON being that it’s a tad too small to accommodate a regular-sized or heavy-weighted load of laundry (I wouldn’t reccommend use for towels, bedding, heavy coats, hoodies, jeans, etc.) The sides are flimsy when too much weight is added, so it easily falls over or half-collapses if left set somewhere. After only a few uses, it will not fully collapse to store it. I have finagled with it & finally give up and leave it. Laundry already takes up enough of my time without this little headache. I would NOT recommend & will be hesitant to purchase anything similar in the future.PROS:Smaller size & lightweight for individual loads of laundry.Convenient, if it continues ‘collapsing’ as intended.Has built in handles.CONS:Not very sturdy material.Difficult to store if it doesn’t collapse down as intended.Smaller size than an average laundry basket.Inconvenient to try to use with multiple loads of laundry.Does not fold in as easily as it should.
