Functional and stylish laundry baskets are essential equipment in any bathroom or laundry, thanks to which we can store laundry clothes in an elegant and aesthetic way, while protecting them from damage.
What shape of laundry basket to choose?
Rectangular, corner, cylindrical - the shape of the laundry basket is particularly important in small rooms, where every use of space should be carefully planned and thought out. When there is a shortage of space, it's best to think about a container that can easily fit under the wash basin. A practical solution is also a variety of handles or hooks, thanks to which the laundry basket can be hung on the bathroom door or any other place you choose - wardrobe, wardrobe or heater.
Considering the appropriate shape of the laundry container, it is worth considering how we will use it.
The trolley basket can be easily moved closer to the washing machine, comfortable handles in the upper part of the container will help to tilt it to sort the laundry before washing. The foldable laundry basket allows you to easily move wet, freshly washed clothes to the balcony or dryer. What's more, when folded, it takes up very little space so it can be easily stored in a wardrobe or chest of drawers when not in use. The laundry basket in the form of a bag can in turn accompany us on a business trip or holiday with children.
Materials of the laundry baskets
- Metal.
The quintessence of modern interiors. The metal laundry basket will work perfectly with other accessories made of this material, such as soap containers or cups, creating a harmonious whole. However, metal baskets are relatively heavy, which limits their mobility. So if you're looking for a container that's easy to carry, it's definitely better to think about a laundry basket made of polyester, for example.
- Plastic.
A wealth of colors and original design. Plastic laundry baskets surprise with their lightness and even filled with clothes, can be easily moved and moved to other rooms. Among the polyester containers you will find a wide range of vivid colours and non-standard design, among which you will easily find a model ideally suited to both laundry and bathroom decoration and children's room.
- Wicker.
The most universal material, which will be used in almost every bathroom, regardless of its decor. Wicker baskets are usually manufactured in larger sizes, so they are recommended for large and bright spaces. It should be remembered that wicker is a material relatively susceptible to moisture, in case of flooding, mould may appear in the wicker container and the basket will need to be replaced.
- Fabric.
Fabric laundry baskets will be a perfect complement to the original interior of a small bathroom. In our offer you will find both pastel containers made of organic cotton in Scandinavian style, as well as more flashy and bold styles. Material baskets have a very wide range of applications, outside the bathroom you can use them to store toys, scarves, hats or other home accessories.
