I loved the size and style of this hamper, however it did not last long at all before the bottom wire popped out and protruded through the side. I ended up buying a nice sturdy Rubbermaid type hamper which has lasted 5 times as long, showing no wear and tear, and I got it on sale for about the same price. I guess my advice would be to hang on to your money and keep and eye out for a good deal on something better!
