great basket

i am redecorating my room to be that of an asian themed bedroom, and this basket fit the theme very well. the bamboo is not sharp or pointy so i haven't gotten hurt. the color is very nice and is very clean. the lid is sturdy and doesn't bend or crease in a weird way. the size is great. it is actually larger than my previous basket and fits more clothes inside. the only thing that i am not the happiest about is the hamper inside. i dont like bringing down the entire basket to do my laundry so i remove the hamper from the inside to carry it down. if i have a lot of clothes to do and the hamper is very full, there are no handles to carry that makes travel easier. you need to grab whatever you can and carry it down which can hurt the hands if its heavy. putting the clothes in the washer has never been easier. i can just dump the hamper into the wash and have the clothes inside fall out without bending down constantly, or needing to hold a basket against my hip to throw clothes in. overall, this is a very nice product and im happy with it.
