This is good for sorting laundry, especially if you're single or a small family. An extra large load in our washer is 1 1/2 of the sections, as opposed to just 1. It's made of seagrass and the odor was so obnoxious, like being in a barn full of hay, I'm afraid it would make allergic individuals sneeze constantly. I even sat it outside in full sun with no change in the odor. I used polyurethane on it to stop the stink. It also couldn't handle much abuse either. As it folds flat, I tied some jute strings to the bottom of the frame to help reinforce it. It doesn't take up much space and with it closed I even have a small workspace.

This review is from: Household Essentials ML-6445 Woven-Seagrass Triple Laundry Sorter with Casters and 3 Removable Bags (Kitchen)

My goals for this product were to simply store laundry in separate compartments, look presentable, and remain stationary. It certainly does all three of those things just fine. Installation was a snap, it only took 15 minutes at the most.

I can see how some folks have complained about the durability/structure of the unit. If I were to have installed the casters (wheels) and planned on rolling it around the house, I'm not sure how well it would hold up in time.

For the money I'm satisfied. Sure it could have a bit stronger frame, but for my stationary needs it works just fine, I would gladly recommend it to a friend if they had similar needs.

I found assembly to be fast and easy. The unit is not exactly what you would call sturdy, and it is certainly not "furniture". It looks exactly like the photo...no surprises. The "grass smell" that another reviewer found unpleasant and objectionable, for me, is actually one its nicer qualities! I would call it an "aroma". I purchased this item to use in a country kitchen as an upgrade from open bags to hold clean trash, and glass, plastic, metal and paper recycling on their way to the basement. I'm planning to put the currently used bags inside the compartments for easy removal when full. Having noted the "central sag" issue of another reviewer, I will either attach some support below, or put heavier items in one of the end bins. I will probably be functional, and is not particularly unattractive. Sorry... Can't figure out how to insert product link...
