The Auldhome Design Lint Bin combines a classic "farmhouse" look with industrial-style durability. It is constructed from heavy-gauge galvanized steel and finished with a powder-coated enamel, making it much more robust than common plastic bins. The metal body is particularly useful in a laundry setting as it helps dissipate static electricity, ensuring that lint falls out easily when emptied rather than clinging to the sides.
The unit features a large-format magnet on the back, designed to distribute its holding force across a wide area to prevent sliding. Despite its sturdy metal build, the profile is kept to a slim 3.75 inches, allowing it to fit into the narrow spaces often found between a washer and dryer. If you prefer a more permanent installation, the bin also includes integrated keyhole slots for mounting directly to a wall.
Key specifications of this model include:
- Galvanized steel construction for enhanced rigidity and long-term use.
- Hybrid mounting options for either magnetic or wall-attached setups.
- A powder-coated finish that provides moisture resistance in damp areas.
While the bin is built to last, it is worth noting that the powder coating can chip if the bin is dropped on a hard floor, which could eventually lead to rust on the steel base. Keeping the hinges clean will also help prevent any squeaking in humid environments. Overall, it is a high-utility piece that effectively manages a common fire hazard—dryer lint—while keeping the laundry room organized.
If you are looking for a more modern, transparent style to see when your bin is full, the Sealegend Clear Bin is a contemporary alternative.
