I really like these hampers. They are large enough to hold an entire load of laundry. Then I can just wheel the hamper to my laundry area and load washer. I am 70 and I have difficulty carrying a large hamper through the house. Once laundry has been washed and dried, I put it in the hamper and go to a chair to fold. After folder I put back into hamper with clothes folded according to which room they go to, i.e. bathroom, bedroom, kitchen etc. makes doing laundry easy and probably safer for this senior citizen. This hamper would also be great poolside as kids could put wet towels in it when they are done and at end of day you could just cart them off to the dryer.
