"A Sensible Shape And Size" star star star star star I have owned an oblong-shaped basket with identical construction, for many years. It has finally reached the end of its life. Eventually the folds do split, but in my experience it takes a long time depending on use. The shape/size of this basket are perfect & it is so much easier for me to carry. Whilst I agree with the other reviews about the stiff nature of unfolding, I also know this will gradually wear off with use. By placing my hand (palm down) in the middle of the base, one side can be lifted & then the other. My previous basket was exactly the same when new. I am pleased with my buy.
"Square collapsible laundry basket" star star star star star_border Seems perfect for us except for one thing….I struggle to uncollapse and to collapse the basket, but that’s possibly just me. On the plus side holds a perfect amount of washing to line so that it’s not too heavy. Comments on the larger basket suggest the rubber parts may split over time, but only time will tell. Good handles, great size, fits well against washer for taking out wet washing, no complaints to date finding it much easier and better than my old plastic washing bag type which was too deep.
"good size difficult to collapse" star star star star_border star_border Like your other reviewers I also find this basket difficult to collapse and bring together again . It is much sturdier than the previous basket so maybe that is the reason. Hopefully the more I use it the more flexible it will become but it is maybe something you need to look at. support_agent A note from the team We offer a 3-year guarantee on every product.

"Difficult to undo the folds" star star star_border star_border star_border I thought this would save space and be easy to use.....sadly not the case as it takes time to go around and physically undo the rubber so that one has a basket instead of a square lump of rubber/plastic support_agent A note from the team Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you’ve found this difficult to use. We can advise that the does become more flexible as it’s used, but you may wish to look at our pop up laundry basket, ref 53400 as an alternative.
