The laundry basket is useful for collecting dirty laundry while waiting for it to be washed. Whether made of fabric, plastic, stainless steel, bamboo, or wicker, this accessory also becomes part of the decoration of the laundry room or the bathroom.
Laundry baskets are distinguished by their shape:
- cylindrical;
- rectangular;
- cubic.
The available models also differ by their manufacturing material.
- Plastic bins and baskets are offered in a wide range of colors. Moreover, they are appreciated for their ease of maintenance.
- Bamboo or wicker models charm with their aesthetics. They are resistant to moisture.
- Fabric baskets are light and easy to store. They are equipped with a wooden or aluminum frame.
- Stainless steel bins generally come with a lid that hides the view of the dirty laundry and limits odors. They add modernity to the decor.
Some criteria to consider when choosing laundry baskets include:
- models mounted on wheels make it easier to transport dirty laundry to the washing machine;
- bins with compartments facilitate sorting clothes by color or depending on their fragility;
- some models can serve as bathroom stools with a removable seat to access the dirty laundry bin;
- the capacity of this accessory depends on the number of people in the household (50 L for 3 people).
Thus, the choice of a laundry basket depends on the users' preferences, the decoration of the bathroom or laundry room, but also on the number of people in the household. Some decorative or multi-function models can be placed in the bedroom.
