Mesh and a handle is a combination that suits more jobs than most storage: contents stay visible, air moves through, and you can carry the whole basket to where it is needed rather than ferrying items back and forth. That makes it equally useful for bathroom toiletries, laundry, cleaning supplies, toys, produce or picnic kit. The wooden handle is warmer in the hand than plastic and gives the basket a finished look, so it can sit out in a bathroom or living room rather than being hidden in a cupboard. Ventilation also matters more than people expect — damp cloths and towels dry in a mesh basket where a solid box would keep them wet. Available in white and black.

Buying guide
Open mesh is the right choice for anything that needs to breathe — damp cloths, towels, produce, sports kit — and the wrong choice for anything you would rather not see. Use it for the things you are happy to have on show and keep closed boxes for the rest. Plastic wipes clean easily, which matters in a bathroom or under a sink. Keep the wooden handle dry and wipe rather than soak it. When buying more than one, stick to a single colour: matching baskets on a shelf read as deliberate, while mixed ones look like accumulated storage.
How it compares
Against a solid box, mesh ventilates and lets you see what is inside. Against a rattan basket, plastic handles damp far better — the right pick for a bathroom or laundry. For items you want hidden, a lidded box is the better answer.
Frequently asked questions
Why mesh rather than a solid basket?
Air moves through it, so damp cloths, towels and produce dry rather than staying wet, and you can see the contents at a glance.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
Yes - plastic handles humidity far better than natural fibre. Keep the wooden handle dry and wipe rather than soak it.
Should I buy more than one?
If you do, stick to one colour. Matching baskets on a shelf look deliberate; mixed ones look accumulated.
