Designed for the high-frequency demands of a classroom or a busy playroom, these 13 x 10 inch baskets are built from high-impact polypropylene. Unlike more brittle plastics, this material is designed to flex slightly under the weight of heavy books or cardstock, which helps prevent snapping or stress marks. The handles feature a rolled-edge mold that provides a comfortable grip and adds structural reinforcement to the side walls.
Specifications indicate these baskets are sized to maximize efficiency for standard paper and A4 folders. The non-tapered interior walls ensure that documents lay flat, making them useful as paper trays. The surface is resistant to common household cleaners and sanitizers, allowing for easy maintenance in shared environments. Additionally, the precision-molded feet allow the baskets to nest securely when not in use, saving valuable shelf space.
While the handles are highly durable, the baskets are most stable when the static load is kept within a reasonable limit for plastic storage. The UV-resistant colors are designed to remain vibrant even when exposed to consistent indoor lighting.
For a lidded option that keeps dust away from your school supplies, consider the Jalove 3.2QT lidded bins as an alternative.
