This laundry basket is a good replacement for my old one. Not quite as large as I was expecting as I did use the given specifications to compare to my old one before purchasing. However, it is large enough to hold a freshly laundered/folded load. I also find it sturdy enough to carry under one arm and against my hip, freeing my other arm to deliver items around the house. I have not had problems with the liner staying put as others have stated. Its attractive as well which is nice because I store it on top of my dryer for all to see. All told, I do recommend it and I would purchase it again.Measurements: outside top diameter- 19 1/2, outside bottom diameter- 14 1/2, outside height (w/o handles)-11, handles-2 1/4, Thickness- 1/2.
