We have a small laundry room by our kitchen and needed a small hamper in there to be able to throw dish towels and other little things into that we were too lazy to take to a bedroom hamper. This fits even better than I expected it to, without taking space away from the room or getting in the way of the washer and dryer. The fabric liner is so easy to remove to be able to wash. It was super easy to put together as well!
