Nearly 30,000 five-star reviewers were surprised by the high quality of this collapsible mesh hamper, especially since it comes at such a low price point. Buyers say it's "actually pretty sturdy" and "durable, yet light and easy to carry." One reviewer likes that the handles "make for easy carrying to distant laundry facilities," and another declares, "This hamper doesn't quit." Many were also fans of the side pocket, which a reviewer calls "strong and able to hold items without tearing," and others love that the hamper can "collapse or pop up in a fraction of a second" for easy storage or transport.
Besides its heavy-duty construction, reviewers note the hamper's impressive capacity. "It actually holds more laundry that you would think by looking at it," writes one, and another says, "I can transport both my clothes and large tub of laundry detergent in it without feeling like it will rip." It's not surprising, then, that one reviewer says this workhorse of a hamper "makes doing laundry almost fun."
This structured two-compartment hamper from Household Essentials also comes with a lid. Along with being durable (one reviewer says they've "now had this for over a year and it's still in perfect condition"), it earns praise from reviewers for its good looks. "This blends perfectly with the neutral and brown tones of my decor," says one reviewer, and another adds, it "looks so nice and does not need to be hidden inside a closet." And thanks to the lid, one reviewer raves, "this sucker looks nice and modern and hides your stinky clothes like a garbage wearing a tuxedo."
For even more convenient laundry sorting and transporting, this easy-to-assemble cart is beloved by reviewers because it "rolls very easily and feels sturdy," and its three compartments means it can hold "enough room for a full week of laundry and then some." One reviewer uses the separate bags for "whites, colors, and work clothes for my husband and me," and another uses theirs for "whites, permanent-press, and heavy-duty." (That same reviewer also notes that the bags are "easy to empty into the washer.") Others like that it's "solid and has nice, lockable casters on the bottom" to keep it from rolling away. "The wheels are amazing and the ability to lock them is even more helpful," writes a happy customer.
Large families (and the super-organized) appreciate this hamper with its four separate compartments. "Having a sorter cuts down on unnecessary laundry sorting time and saves space by not having to have different piles of sorted clothes all over the place on laundry days," says one reviewer who also finds that it can hold two weeks' worth of clothes for a family of four. "No more arguing about mixed-up laundry!" writes another parent who explains that "four separate bags means that the kids each get one, I get one, and we have one for towels." Reviewers find the hamper itself, along with the wheels and bags, very durable. One writes, "It is easy to wheel from one room to the other room," and another likes that it's "made out of a respectably heavy material."
This no-frills, collapsible hamper has more than 4,000 five-star reviews because, as one reviewer describes, it's "sturdy enough to hold what we need but also flexible enough to be collapsed if necessary." One reviewer explains that when expanded, the hamper's "stiff" fabric and "metal frame at the opening help it keep its shape and stay open." And another claims it's so sturdy that they now refer to it as "the Muhammad Ali of laundry bins," adding that it "manages to carry my infinite amounts of laundry with no problem. The handles have never broken or torn, and can carry a lot of weight. Strong and can handle any challenge."
Lots of reviewers appreciate that this hamper is "very sturdy and can fold down into a nice neat box" when it's not in use, as one customer puts it. Another reviewer likes that even when it's not folded up, it's still slim. She wanted a "small, lightweight hamper" for her walk-in closet and this "fits perfectly in the space." For her, though, the true perk is that it has a lid. "The detachable lid that connects with Velcro can stay attached and left open; it simply folds down one side." And for people who don't keep their laundry basket tucked away, one customer says "the lid makes it easy to camouflage dirty clothes and makes the room look neat." Even though it's smaller than other hampers because it's foldable, she thinks it's "a great size: not too big so it looks weird, but not too small so it fits a good amount of clothes."
While the three- and four-compartment hampers above are also on wheels, this single-compartment rolling hamper is appreciated by reviewers for how it fits into smaller spaces. "What I like most is it folds and can fit in narrow spaces," reports one reviewer, who says theirs is "between washer and wall, approximately 4–5 inches," and points out that the "heavy-duty" bag is "removable so you don't have to try to dive in to get clothes from the bottom!" Another says that unlike other "lightweight and tinny" rolling hampers, this one's "strong, well-engineered, and cleverly designed" with a "surprisingly big" bag. And dozens of reviewers like that it makes laundry day easier. "I just fill it with the clothes I need to wash from my closet and wheel it to my laundry room," writes a reviewer. "So easy and it saves my back from having to carry laundry baskets."
"This is a genius invention," a reviewer raves of this space-saving hanging hamper. "The rolling carts and laundry bins we've tried take up too much precious floor space," explains a second reviewer, and another notes that this one "makes my small laundry room feel bigger." Along with saving floor space, reviewers love that "it doesn't stick out too far, even when towels are in it," and has "a zipper down the back making it easy to empty into the washer without having to pull everything out from the top."
"This small laundry bag has been a gigantic convenience," starts a five-star reviewer of this over-the-door hanging hamper. They like that it can "fit a decent load of clothes before becoming too bulky to hang on a door," as well as the added helpfulness of its bottom zipper: "When you need a wash, all you have to do is unzip the bottom and the clothes release right into the washer." Another who bought this for their mother says it's the "perfect product to replace her traditional laundry box." They write, "With the stainless-steel hooks, this bad boy can be hung up anywhere and not drop the bag with a full load of clothes inside them." And a third reviewer reports, "It has held a LOT of clothes, too. And some wet towels. Bedding. So much … Highly recommended if you are short on space (or hate too much clutter on the floor) and are looking for new laundry solutions."
With two compartments for separating clothing and a woven wicker exterior, this hamper is a favorite among reviewers looking for something "roomy, sturdy, and great to look at." They also like that "it's well-built but light" and has handles that make it easy to carry. Another reviewer says this makes sharing a hamper a breeze, because each section has its own separate, machine-washable bag: "You can take just one bag out and put in the washer. You can lift each lid individually to put the clothes in," and each side holds about a week of laundry per-person, she writes. One reviewer goes so far as to say, "I truly believe this hamper was the mark of adulthood for me. It was a huge step in becoming an organized person who values their belongings." Marie Kondo would certainly approve of this reviewer, who goes on to say, "I experience joy when I lift up the little wicker flaps."
"What's that standing in my corner looking cute AF! That's my new hamper!" writes one five-star reviewer of this bamboo corner hamper, which they add "has lots of room, doesn't take much space," and is "easy to assemble." Plenty of others love that the Honey-Can-Do hamper strikes a balance between form and function. One was worried it would "be flimsy and look cheap" because of its low price, but was pleasantly surprised: "It is not an eyesore at all. Actually, it makes my room look better. It has been over 6 months and even with my destructive 7-year-old son, it is holding up great!" Another, who appreciates that it's made of bamboo and metal instead of "cheap plastic," writes, "It's heavy enough not to topple over when one of our cats rubs or jumps up against it, but lightweight enough that I can easily move it from room to room with one hand."
Decorative enough to display on its own, reviewers say this attractive rope basket doesn't "look like trash in our apartment" and is "supersoft, but also very durable." Many other customers agree that this hamper is durable, without being bulky, like one who writes that it's "easy to carry up and down flights of stairs when doing laundry because it's light" but is also "sturdy" enough to hold a full load. It looks so nice, in fact, some use it to organize items other than laundry: "Using to store shoes and dog leashes by the door. Hides 'the mess' and looks so stylish," writes one who describes the hamper as "sturdy and well made."
One of the few highly rated hampers with a pattern, reviewers like that this subtly striped basket "stands up on its own and is a great size for a week's worth of laundry." Several reviewers also mention the benefits of the plastic liner that "prevents staining from any wet dirty clothes," according to one. Another says the plastic liner "stays upright and I don't have to worry about it getting dirty and smelly. All it'd take is a quick rinse and air dry." And others also agree that the hamper is "light and easy to transport with the attached handles."
Reviewers say the triple wheels on this rolling hamper trolley make lugging laundry up and down flights of stairs much easier. "I have muscular dystrophy and have trouble walking and carrying things. This thing has been a lifesaver!" writes one reviewer. "I was able to get all of the laundry upstairs, down to the 1st floor with such ease … You're in total control." Another reviewer who finds it hard to "carry stuff and to bend or stoop" found the hamper to be "perfect" because "it does not sit on the floor and I don't have to bend as far to get at the clothes … If you have any mobility issues, this is a great find." The hamper bag itself is very sturdy, durable, and protective — one reviewer reports that it "survived a baptism" after they took their clothes to the laundromat in the pouring rain. "The outside was wet, but the clothes stayed dry," they write. "The material is sturdy and waterproof and dries quickly without stains. I'm very happy with my purchase."
Roomy, collapsible, and sturdy are three words reviewers frequently use to describe this easy-to-carry hamper that doubles as a large tote bag. "This is the best thing I have ever spent my hard earned money on," raves one reviewer who loves how easily it makes carrying laundry. Reviewers like that it "stays upright when you load it" and "also can be wiped down, if it should happen to get dirty." A reviewer who has to lug their hamper to a laundry room writes, "The bag distributes the weight in a way that makes carrying it even when it's really heavy easier and it feels less bulky than other bags."
For students living in dorms that are far away from the laundry room — or adults living in apartments without laundry-in-unit — this backpack-style hamper is a "lifesaver! It's such a big bag I can put two big loads or three small loads in it, and the backpack straps just make it that much better and easier to carry," writes one reviewer who has to walk from her apartment to a shared laundry room. The backpack's ease of use is also appreciated by one self-described "older" customer, who says it's a "lifesaver" in helping her carry a couple of loads of laundry "safely down narrow, winding steps to the washer in my basement." In addition to being large enough to fit a couple of loads and easy to carry, many other customers describe this backpack-style hamper as durable. One reviewer destroyed several laundry baskets in her walk from the apartment to the laundromat but finds that this one can withstand the stress: "I've definitely thrown this thing around, stuffed it to the max, dragged it up and down the stairs, tossed it in the car, washed it and it still looks as pristine and is as strong as the day it delivered." Nearly 100 five-star customers say they appreciate the pack's pockets, which include an "inside zipper pocket for change or dorm keys, and an outside mesh pocket that will hold laundry detergent and dryer sheets," according to a parent who bought this for her son to take to college.
With four baskets in a set, lots of reviewers like that these can be used for sorting laundry or for different family members. "These are the perfect size hampers. Not too large, not too small" writes one reviewer. "And with a four-pack, everyone can have their own and it fits conveniently in the closet without taking up a lot of space." Another likes using them "to help get laundry under control in a busy house with several kids," and others appreciate that they can easily remove the lids to stack the baskets when not in use.
The biggest complaint of the Sterilite laundry hamper was about its lack of handles, which can make transporting it around rather difficult. So if you need to carry your hamper around your house, especially up and down stairs, this Mind Reader hamper — with handles — might work better for you. One mom describes the hamper as "narrow and compact," — and it "looks nice too" — but she truly appreciates that it has handles since she lives in a two-story home. "It's easy to lift in the front of it by the half moon handle in the middle," she says. "Even filled the hamper is lightweight with two carrying cut out handles." Another perk is that it has a removable lid, and though she likes "the neat look of the lid," her teen "took the lid off so it's easier to toss clothes in." A second reviewer calls it "sturdy, convenient and manufactured well." She thinks it's particularly "great for a small closet" because it doesn't "take up much space but still provides ample room in the laundry basket." And she loves that the material "provides an odor barrier with the top."
A quarter of all five-star reviewers say this hamper is easy to carry. One reviewer reports it "holds as much as a large basket, but it's way easier to carry," thanks to the round, metal handles. She also describes it as "simple, modern, functional, and very high quality." One customer read the reviewers prior to purchasing but still "was skeptical" about it because she does a lot of laundry and didn't think it would be durable. But she is "happy to report that it holds great." She even appreciates that it's a "very large size" to hold her many loads of laundry. Another who calls this hamper "sleek looking," needed something with "heavy duty handles" because her laundry unit is down the hall from her apartment. She says the design on this hamper is "perfect for toting laundry back and forth."
This compact hamper-and-ironing-board combo is a great option for those with limited space. "I bought this for my very small laundry room & I'm thrilled with it!" says one reviewer. "The top can be an ironing board or a folding table & it lifts up to access the 3 good sized laundry bags." Since it is on wheels, it may seem a little wobbly while ironing at first, but reviewers insist the structure is in fact "very stable and sturdy," as one puts it. (You just have to "tighten everything down much more than you would think.") A third reviewer calls this hamper "life-changing," writing that they "have a small apartment with no room for a folding table and not much for an ironing board either. This hamper is the perfect solution." They were afraid at first that it "would be too low and I would have to hunch over," but it's turned out even better than expected. Now they just "cart it into the living room and watch TV while I iron" and then cart their clean, folded clothes "to the place I need to put them away. Huzzah!"
About 10 percent of all five-star reviewers talk about this hamper's removable laundry bags, which make it easy to take their dirty clothes to the laundromat or laundry room. One customer, who wanted to update her hamper from the mesh one she used in college, says, "What I love about this hamper is you can't see the dirty clothes inside, so it makes the room look cleaner and more organized. Also, the mesh bags on the inside are removable, so you can bring them to the washing machine without having to take the whole product." And while she sees this as an upgrade from a college hamper, some reviewers actually use this for their dorm. One mom bought this for her son: "It was pretty easy to assemble, and I love that it has the two bags inside that can be easily removed to bring to the laundry room," she says. She also appreciates that it has a cover so "no one has to see the dirty clothes." Plus one more customer says this is the "best laundry hamper" she has ever had because it's "a strong, sturdy, and well thought-out hamper."
This laundry basket features a drawstring closure at top, which reviewers say keeps the smell inside, rather than in the bedroom. One college student confirms that it does "keep odor at bay" and "the inside could also be wiped down if needed." She has owned this for about six months and loves that it "doesn't take up much space but easily can fit about a week and a half's worth of dirty laundry." Plus it can "be easily broken down and packed" if needed. Another customer likes that the drawstring keeps everything in, so you "don't have to worry about things falling out and getting lost," especially when carrying it to the Laundromat. But one more thinks that's the part that makes it particularly great for kids. "The kids can carry it themselves without dropping clothes all down the hallway to the laundry room." For two rough kids, she says, "the leather handles are very durable" and they're "much more comfortable" to carry than other baskets.
If you want a robust laundry hamper that blends in with the rest of your furniture, this Household Essentials option has hidden tilt-out hampers within its wooden cabinet. "Even better than pictured!" says one reviewer. "This is a sturdy piece of furniture that just happens to hide laundry. The finish is also very nice and looks durable." Plus it's guaranteed to keep your laundry safe from curious pets; one reviewer whose "puppy thought chewing on laundry was fun" replaced their collapsible mesh laundry bin with this one and "loved it so much we bought a second … Now all our laundry is presorted in the separate bins." Another pet owner says this "sturdy and nice-looking" hamper has been "utterly cat-proof, unlike the wicker one it replaced."
Not only does this hamper come with whimsical patterns — like dinosaurs and panda bears — it's also shorter than most other hampers, so kids can easily throw things inside. "I use this for my children's dirty clothes hamper and they are able to pick it up on their own," says one mom. Her kids are 3 and 4 years old, and because it's so "sturdy," she expects it to last a few more years. She says it's a "very nice size" and even purchased four of them. Another warns that it's "bigger than I thought" but even when filled, it's "very lightweight," so the size isn't really an issue. And it's "foldable" so you can stow it away when it's not in use. But a third mom says the size is actually perfect for kids because it's "not too big or too small." She even thinks it "keeps you in check with waiting too long to do the laundry."
