This is a great basket for tall cabinets with deep shelves (i.e. over the washer and dryer).  The basket makes it easier to reach items by simply pulling it out enough to retrieve what I need.  I washed the liner first for the basket in which I store additional kitchen towels, etc.  To be safe, I line dried the liner.  This is the only basket I found to fill the cabinet shelf space as much as possible.  I love having the cabinet storage and the large baskets make it even better.
