They are a perfect size and a fabulous price which is why I bought three. As small as they seemed in the pictures, they actually hold more than the hamper Ive been using for years and was falling apart. So this pleased me. What didnt please me was putting them together. What an exercise in frustration!! My arthritis hands were in absolute agony when I was finished with just one!! Have someone young and agile put it together for you is my advice.
