Havlin 75L Waterproof Laundry Basket | Foldable Fabric Hamper With Carry Handles For Bedrooms

Seventy five litres is the size that matters here. It holds a genuine full load rather than filling after two days and leaving the overflow on the floor beside it, which is the failure mode of most fabric hampers. It also means one trip to the machine instead of two, which sounds trivial until the machine is downstairs.

The waterproof lining is there for damp towels and gym kit, the two things that ruin an unlined fabric basket by soaking through and eventually smelling. Carry handles let you move a full load without hugging it, and the whole thing folds flat when it is empty, so it goes behind a door or under a bed rather than standing in the corner of a bedroom permanently. Air it out with the lining exposed every few weeks, as a waterproof liner holds damp in as effectively as it keeps it off the fabric.

It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, student accommodation, and holiday lets, and it works equally well for toy storage or as a general tidy up bin between uses. Air it out after damp loads rather than folding it away wet, which is the one thing that will make it smell. Buy it now.
