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) [Black]

The headline says it all.But really, it's a sizeable basket that holds at least 2 weeks of laundry. The straps are strong (as is the rest of the bag) and, if I'm being honest, I don't treat it nicely. It gets some abuse but has held up nicely.Best part, it's not a normal material so it attracts no odors. Not that I'm smelly. Just saying.

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.

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 had many hampers of this type because I have used them for temporary storage, which I don't recommend. This DAZZ one is by far the best because it has strong handles of woven material, and in addition, there are openings in the top to grip the hamper firmly. You can see on of them in the photo above the detergent bottle.Please check all colors, some are MUCH more reasonably priced than others. Even at a higher price, these DAZZ hampers will be worth it as they outlast the ones made by other companies or are not DELUXE.It comes flat in a small circle with a strong band made of wide elastic to hold it in place in case you want to twist it up and store it in a drawer or on a shelf. The vinyl bag, if cut carefully at the top can also be used to store the small, twisted hamper in, but the elastic band should hold it. I suggest you keep the elastic band in the pocket.I have some of these with the same design about 15 years ago that I still have but have not found anywhere anymore. Some that are almost as good--strong handle--are not sold by Walgreens anymore, and I haven't seen them at any other of the stores I go to either. These are still my best. If you don't catch the mesh on something or your cats don't try to sharpen their nails on one, the mesh should definitely last, based on my experience of 15 years with these.The protection on the seams that hold the wires is like most--it's thin nylon. However with the exception of one or two of my cheaply made ones, the seams have held, but I don't think you should routinely squash the hamper or catch it on anything.Again this particular one is the VERY best quality I have seen among the many that I have and have had.

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.

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.

I wish I saw this version before buying another brand...way better and cheaper! I love the side handles along with the straps making transportation so much easier, the pocket on the side is sturdy and holds a lot. Not bad for a pop up laundry bag, great for college students or people like me who have to travel to the laundromat.

It was pretty good. Kind of flimsy. Fabric handles tore after a while

This hamper was the cheapest one I found here on amazon. Surprisingly, it is durable and is able to hold my laundry. It is a reasonably priced hamper if you’re looking for one for a good price.
