Having had our old, built-in hamper torn out in a bathroom remodel, we needed something that wouldn't be an eyesore sitting in the bedroom itself. This hamper works great, fitting in nicely with our transitional decor and blending with the wood tone of our furniture. The woven design leaves just enough air circulation without allowing visibility into the hamper. It's fairly substantial for a hamper but still light enough to pick up and carry into the laundry room. Took about 15 minutes to assemble and feels well-made. My only negative is the liner isn't removable.
