The Sterilite Ultra White Basket is a step up in durability, featuring wall thicknesses approximately 15% greater than standard budget lines. This added material helps the basket resist impact and maintain its shape under load. The primary material is a polypropylene copolymer, which is selected for its ability to flex rather than shatter if bumped. This 6-pack set is designed with high manufacturing tolerances, ensuring that units purchased years apart will still nest together perfectly.
Features include grey over-molded handle inserts, which are created through a dual-injection process. These inserts provide a more comfortable grip by reducing the pressure on the palms when carrying heavy loads of clothing. The ventilation holes are engineered with smooth radii to prevent any sharp edges from snagging your garments. This model is designed for balanced, two-handed carrying to ensure the weight is distributed across the reinforced rim.
Specifications show that each basket requires about 18.5 inches of vertical clearance when stacked in a 6-pack. To maintain the integrity of the polymer, it is recommended to store these baskets away from prolonged direct sunlight, which helps prevent the material from becoming brittle over time. They are best suited for indoor laundry room or closet environments.
For users who need to prep multiple loads in a very small footprint, the Collapsible 63L Pink 2-Pack offers significant space savings when empty.
