Size and Fit
Pros:
"This fit perfectly in our tiny bedroom! Fits a lot too!"
"I like this as it exactly fits between my bathroom vanity and wall."
"It isn’t super large but it holds a lot more than I expected!"
"This is great for small spaces. I have a small bed room and little space and this fit perfectly between the shelves and wall."
"The space is not too small, it can fit a week and a half or so of laundry no problem."
"It’s just like the picture! My only issue is that they don’t hold that much laundry in each individual section."
"It is smaller in size than I expected but shockingly you can fit a ton of clothes in each of those laundry bags."
Cons:
"The width is fine. The height is shorter than what I’m used to."
"It can't hold a week's clothes for one person."
"The compartments in this double laundry hamper are small and not as wide as we expected."
"Item is significantly smaller in person."
"It’s much much smaller than advertised and can barely hold itself up."
"I thought it would be double the height for the price. It is very small and I would send it back but after opening, it would be a huge hassle to try and repackage it."
"It was a lot smaller, maybe for one person definitely not for me and my husband."
Assembly and Sturdiness
Pros:
"It was super easy and so far is sturdy!"
"This basket is so cute and pretty easy to put together and it is big enough to fit most of my clothes after not washing for weeks."
"Velcro holds bags in really well and the bags are very sturdy."
"Assembles easy."
"Easy to assemble, could handle a little weight on top, divider in the middle with 2 bags."
"It’s super easy to assemble."
"This laundry hamper is easy to put together, took me about 2 minutes, and is very sturdy!"
Cons:
"It's very flimsy, and the laundry bags always fall down in the hamper so I have to keep it half full only."
"The bag linings seems a bit flimsy, but I have yet to test out is durability when it's full."
"This product seems great until you go to assemble. There are missing Velcro straps which causes the laundry bags not to affix to the hamper."
"The bags inside however have ripped and the Velcro has not held up after 6 months."
"The middle divider is held by Velcro so it is continuously being popped off."
"The laundry bags inside are not the most durable and the Velcro has worn out on them."
"The entire hamper looks like it won't last for multiple loads."
Design and Aesthetics
Pros:
"The look was the main reason I got it, for a subtle hamper that didn’t look too much like a dirty clothes basket."
"Very sturdy and I add lil decorations on top to help blend in my studio room."
"I love the lid part of it, because I can keep this in the corner of my room without having my friends see my dirty laundry when they come over."
"I love the way this product looks in my bathroom. Keeps the clutter of clothes away and contained."
"I bought in black and I love it. It is outside my bathroom and looks attractive."
"It’s clean looking so it just looks like a neat little storage box in the corner."
"It is a shade similar to my walls... in addition to matching the decor."
Cons:
"The lid has now lost all shape and looks awful."
"Everything is great except the material its made of and the sturdiness of it… my cats sat on top and bent the cover so now its indented."
"The biggest problem I have with it is that my cats LOVE the material! Their claws stick in it wonderfully."
"These hampers look and are cheap and don’t last more than just a couple of months."
"The finished product is super flimsy and cheap."
"The lid has no sturdiness and dips when the smallest pressure is applied."
"This is an overpriced piece of cardboard."
Functionality and Convenience
Pros:
"Perfect for separating my socks and underwear from my shirts and jeans."
"The bags are easy to carry around and I like how you can close the top."
"Holds a lot and divided into two for easy sorting (colors/whites)."
"The bags are obviously detachable and all I have to do is throw what I need in the washer and run it."
"The removable bags make it so that you don't need to carry the whole hamper downstairs."
"Super, super convenient laundry basket. Pulling the bags out by the handles has made transporting laundry super easy."
"Being able to just pull the bag out and dump it into the washer is very convenient."
Cons:
"What was disappointing is that it only came with ONE mesh bag instead of the two it shows."
"However, even 8 months after owning it, there is this odor that won't go away."
"It’s a nasty, ammonia-tinged smell, kind of urine-like."
"Have had these for a few months now, and yes they work as a hamper, but they also REEK of chemicals."
"The laundry bin out-gasses a weird smell."
"The bag linings don't have a ties to close it."
"I don't pull the inside bags out for wash day as it's too cumbersome taking them out and putting them back."
