FAQs
What are the dimensions of the laundry basket?
The basket offers a capacity of 100L. Specific dimensions will depend on the fully assembled state, but it is designed to hold a substantial amount of laundry.
Is the liner bag waterproof?
The liner is made of a poly-cotton blend fabric, which is breathable and soft. It is not designed to be waterproof but is machine washable.
How much weight can the basket hold?
The basket has a maximum load capacity of 25kg, supported by its robust 17mm bamboo frame.
Can I use the basket without the liner?
While possible, using the basket without the liner is not recommended as it may reduce stability and make cleaning more difficult. The liner also protects clothes from direct contact with the bamboo frame.
How easy is it to assemble?
Assembly is designed to be simple and quick, guided by clear, illustrated instructions included with the product.
Can the compartments be removed?
The internal compartments are part of the basket's structure and are not designed to be removed. They are fixed to facilitate easy sorting.
What is the recommended way to clean the bamboo frame?
The bamboo frame should be wiped clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. It is important to avoid excessive moisture to maintain the durability of the bamboo.
Troubleshooting
Basket is wobbly or unstable.
Ensure all bamboo strips are correctly aligned and securely fitted. Check that the liner is properly seated, as this often adds to the structural integrity.
Lid does not close properly.
Verify that the liner is not obstructing the lid. Ensure the frame is fully assembled and square. Check for any debris caught in the hinge mechanism.
Liner has an odor or stains.
Remove the liner and machine wash it according to care instructions. For persistent odors, a vinegar or baking soda solution can be used during the wash cycle. Ensure the liner is fully dried before use.
Handles feel weak.
Inspect the handles for any signs of fraying or tearing. Avoid overloading the basket beyond its recommended capacity to prevent strain on the handles.
