FAQ
What is the maximum weight capacity of these baskets?
The plastic construction allows for a load capacity of up to 25kg (approximately 55lbs). However, we recommend not exceeding this limit to maintain stability and prevent damage.
Are these baskets suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, they are designed for both indoor and outdoor use. The plastic is weather-resistant but avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
What cleaning products can I safely use on the plastic?
You can clean these baskets with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads which could scratch the surface.
Do these baskets have any odour-reducing properties?
The open design promotes airflow, which helps to minimise odours. However, for particularly strong smells, you can place an open box of baking soda inside the basket.
Are the handles reinforced?
The handles are constructed from durable plastic and are designed to withstand regular lifting and carrying. They are tested to a load bearing capacity of 10kg.
What size are these baskets when fully open?
When fully open, these baskets measure approximately 60cm (height) x 45cm (width) x 45cm (depth).
Are the colours consistent across different batches?
We understand colour consistency is important. Amazon ensures all products are shipped according to their standard colour specifications; however, slight variations may occur due to monitor settings.
Can these baskets be stacked?
While they can be stacked briefly, we don't recommend stacking them for extended periods as this could compromise stability. Avoid placing heavy items on top.
What is the material of the handles?
The handles are made from reinforced polypropylene plastic, selected for its strength and durability in handling loads.
Are these baskets suitable for storing damp clothes?
While they can hold damp clothes temporarily, prolonged exposure to moisture could lead to mildew growth. Ensure items are dried thoroughly before placing them back in the basket.
