Notice how it stated "Deskside"?
I'm a very visual person so looking at the picture, I judged this paper basket would have fit under my desk, just like the blue ones they have at work.  But upon arrival, I see I should have paid more attention to the description or even the size because it clearly is better suited for the side of the desk and not under it.  That said, this is a very well made wastebasket.  It is heavyduty, has a nice lip for tying your trashbags around, and holds a great more than a desk wastebasket.  I use it for paper recycling and it is perfect.
