The \u003cstrong\u003ecollapsible\u003c\/strong\u003e design folds it flat when the laundry is done, so it stops occupying a bedroom corner permanently.

Let wet items dry before they go in, or keep a separate ventilated container for them. Wash the hamper occasionally according to the label and let it dry fully before folding. Carry by both handles rather than one, which is what tears a handle mounting. Fold it away between wash days if the bedroom is short of space — that flexibility is the main advantage over a rigid basket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a rigid plastic hamper, this folds away and looks better in a bedroom, though plastic copes better with damp. Against a rattan basket, fabric is lighter and washable. For wet towels specifically, a ventilated plastic hamper is the more hygienic choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does a laundry basket smell?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDamp towels or gym kit sitting in a closed hamper, not the basket itself.
