Smart Design Deluxe Mesh Pop Up Square Laundry Hamper w/ Side Pocket & Handles - VentilAir Fabric Collapsible Design - for Clothes & Laundry - Home - (Holds 2 Loads) (14 x 23 Inch) [White]

I bought this to replace the rectangle wire/fabric hamper that I bought from the red bullseye store :) for my son's room. My son is 4 and autistic and tends to be a bit destructive in his room, especially at night before he goes to sleep. He throws things, jumps off things...you name it. Needless to say after a very short time in the ring with my little Nacho Libre, the big metal wires that made up the frame of the other hamper were bent and disfigured beyond repair, not to mention one was poking dangerously out of the fabric! I threw it out right away and bought this. I figured it would be one he could not destroy, could not hurt himself or anything in his room with if he chucked it (not uncommon). Also at this price point, I could afford to replace it if he did manage to destroy it! So far I'm thrilled with it and don't think it will need replacing for a very long time! First, it's idiot proof. I love things that are idiot proof! Second, the materials seem to be of good quality and the construction is sound. I've owned these before and the handles ripped off while lugging a heavy load downstairs to the laundry room. These have not had that problem and I don't anticipate that problem as the whole thing feels very secure. Third, it holds a surprising amount of clothes! I love soft sided laundry baskets just like soft sided suitcases because it means I can stuff more in! Fourth, I love that it has a side pocket for whatever you want. I put socks in it. Fifth, I love that it's mesh so when my son goes fishing in the toilet, spills milk all over himself or I throw wet towels or wash cloths in there, they dry out quickly and don't get all stanky over the course of the week like they would in an enclosed hamper. I know it isn't "cute decor" but seriously, what more could you want out of a dirty clothes hamper?? I bought a second one for my husband and I to use just for our whites. I HIGHLY recommend this for a kids/babies room or for a student, apartment dweller or anyone who has to schlep all their clothes up or down stairs or to a community laundry area! Simple, easy, 5 stars earned! I did NOT receive this item free or at a discount.

Update (1/25/2019): After 8 years, we’re retiring one of these. It still has life in it, but my preschooler decided it makes a much better robot costume than a hamper. Rest In Peace, my friend! Update (2/29/2016): I'm finally starting to have some small rips, but the hampers are still functional. It's been 5.5 years. Well worth the money. Update (4/28/2014): I've been using two of these pink hampers for three and a half years and no rips or tears so far. I can't believe how long they've lasted! I use these to hold dirty laundry and carry laundry around my house, so I have not tried carrying laundry down the block to a laundry mat. Excluding any random quality control issues, I think it's important to remember that pop-up hampers will never be a strong as plastic or wooden-framed hampers, so I wouldn't expect to carry a huge load long distances in these. That said, I regularly fill these to the brim and carry them around my house. Original Review (2010): This is a great hamper. I've bought two and will definitely buy more. Here are some of the highlights: - Very sturdy (especially relative to other pop-up hampers) - Reinforced handles (a must have for large loads to prevent ripping) - 2 side pockets for laundry accessories (detergent, dryer sheets, etc.) - Folds completely flat (or into a small, flat circle for more compact storage) - Solid fabric bottom - Multiple handles (you can pick it up using the cloth handles or with handles on the actual metal frame) The only negative is that the opening is slightly smaller than some other pop-up hampers. Overall, I'm extremely pleased.

I purchased this laundry hamper for staying in the residence hall over the summer in hopes that it would prove useful. Staying organized is really difficult for me, always being on the go, and during the year, my floor was often covered with my laundry piles. This hamper really helped me, because I can just throw things into it, and it will look perfectly clean no matter what. The design is very sturdy, and as a short, 100-pound young woman, I can easily take it up and down flights of stairs and through hallways. There is lots of room in it, so I can always fit my detergent in the hamper as well as loads of clothes. The side pocket is VERY useful for storing my keys, dryer sheets, extra things that I find in my pockets, etc. so I can keep my hands free while walking and doing laundry. As a busy student in college rushing to and from work, class, and clubs, this hamper is going to be my best friend next year! I highly recommend this for any college student or anyone who needs to do laundry within a building.

This popup laundry hamper is good quality and it's holding up well. I've been using it about 6 months and it still looks the same as it did the day it arrived. That said, it's not as big as other similar laundry hampers I've owned. I bought one locally that was stronger and slightly larger. It cost more than this one, but sometimes you pay for better quality. The size difference is only about 2 inches in each direction, but what a difference that seems to make! Still, I can get a decent size load in it and the handles don't cave if I pack it full. Seems durable enough. I may not love it, but I certainly like it.

I do my laundry at work with my client and this was perfect to transfer to my car to inside the house I will buy another one it was sturdy and held a lot of clothes 😁

I decided to get a few of these to use as hampers because I moved and I don’t have the space to use empty laundry baskets for my dirty clothes. I got three - a white one for whites, a black one for darks, and a pink one for my gentle wash/delicates. My parents use similar and although theirs have gotten a little tattered over a period of 5 years, they still work just fine and they love them. They pop open easily and stay open, and the mesh sides allow for air flow - good for hubby’s socks that would otherwise turn into a stinky time bomb in a closed hamper. The handles make moving it from our bedroom to the laundry room easy. The best part - these hold waaay more than I thought they would! We recently invested in a set of front loaders and one of these hampers holds just enough laundry to fill the machine comfortably. Not too full where things wash poorly, and not to empty where it’s kind of a waste because I could fit more things. I don’t expect these to last forever. They are made from a thin nylon sewn together and will probably rip if someone was rough with it or put something sharp in it. I pretty much wait until one is full before I run a load, so they get a little heavy, sooner or later a seam will probably give or a handle will break. But I have to carry my laundry down a set of stairs and I’ve fallen carrying plastic baskets down because I can’t look where I’m stepping, so I feel more comfortable with this because I can carry it with one hand. My only complaint is when getting dirty laundry out. If I turn it upside down, most things won’t come out on their own because of the opening, I have to reach in and pull them out. I end up using a regular plastic laundry basket to carry my clean clothes back upstairs because I don’t want to stuff my freshly dried (and thus wrinkle-free) clothes back in.

I have a four year old, an 18 mo old and a husband (and myself of course), and I do a LOT of laundry. I also procrastinate doing laundry...a lot. SO this hamper gets carried a lot, and gets very full and heavy, and there is absolutely no sign of any wear or tear so far after five months. I am ordering two more today (to replace an older one of a different brand that is falling apart). Oh, and it also gets stepped on, filled with toys, kicked around, folded and unfolded, fought over, dragged by the handles and worn around the house as a robot costume. Very durable and super handy.

I have used these pop-up laundry hampers for years. The blue ones I usually buy are long lasting and very handy. I bought this one because I love the color. This hamper is made well for a pop-up hamper. I like the thicker, sturdier handles. The ones on the blue hampers I had before were so thin, they cut into my hands when full so I made cushions for them using old washcloths folded around each handle and sewn together. I like this hamper except for one thing - it nearly injured me when I opened it up. It had a very small yellow label that said Warning, the product has springs or something. You can't get close enough to read the label without opening it and holding it near your face, which you do NOT want to do. I was holding it in my hands in front of me when it sprung open and almost hit me in the face. I am an older woman, a stroke survivor, and I wear glasses. This could have ended very badly. I emailed the manufacturer listed on the package and told them what happened. Have not heard back from them. If I do, I will update this review accordingly. This is a good little hamper, for the most part. It's a little shorter than the blue ones I usually buy, but it seems wider. I like that its more durable and I love the prettier color. If you buy this, use GREAT CAUTION when opening the package Other than that, I think this is a great pop-up hamper.

UPDSTE: bought this in February and have been using it as a laundry hamper since May. I’ve only collapsed if 3-4 times, mostly it just stays open, but in December I noticed there’s sharp metal sticking through one of the seams where it’s cut through the fabric cover. (Adding photo) So would say this is NOT safe if you have small children around. Bought this for traveling and pleased to find it packs quite small. The only trouble I had was re-folding it; eventually I discovered that it’ll only fold in three when twisted one direction, not the opposite. But easy to re-collapse once I tried twisting the other way.

Been using it for a fair few years now. Have had to buy one replacement due to my cavalier attitude in overestimating its sturdiness, but by god it does its job.

This laundry hamper is perfect. Love it. I purchased the pink one for one of my daughters, and would have purchased a black one as well, but it was over $30- more.....not worth that much money. Come on Amazon....

These do the job I needed them to do! I have 3 kids so when winter hits, my small hallway is chaos with all of the winter gear! We don't have room to have built-in storage so I bought one of these baskets for each kid and that's where all of their dry hats, mitts, gloves, neck warmers gets tossed. They each have their own colour of basket so they can easily grab their own items and put them away. They're fairly sturdy and anticipate them lasing for awhile, although holes in the mesh could be possible if you're rough on them.

Léger, esthétique et facile à ranger et à transporter.
