This is honestly one of the best items I've purchased all year from anywhere! It works *perfectly* for my needs, as we live in a condo and do laundry in the basement. Nearly everyone who encounters me in the laundry room - men and women alike - comments on it and wishes they had one. It was pretty easy to assemble and is well-made and very very functional. I just love it! It's *almost* fun to do laundry. :-)
