I got this hamper because I wanted to presort darks and lights.  Bingo!  Works great, looks good in the hallway.  Although the material is synthetic, it looks natural enough to be not offensive, and should be more durable than wicker. It’s not obvious from the pictures and description, but the interior canvas sacks are separate and each have handles, so you could carry (or wash) them separately.  The overall size is quite functional: large enough for full loads but small enough to carry.
