Its laundry basket has the clean lines you’d expect from a Scandinavian maker and comes in a number of pretty pastels (including a peach-sorbet shade) not usually seen in the hamper scene. Material: Plastic | Size: 9.65” x 22.64” x 14.76” and 24.6” x 14.8” x 22.6” | Design: Graphic lines, stackableĭanish design studio Hay is well respected among current and former Strategist staffers (we count ourselves fans of the company’s toaster, storage bins, lamp, and tube light, among other things). If you’re into sorting, Solomon suggests buying one in black and another in white to color-code your lights and darks. (Just note that if you fill it to the very top, it might not close completely and becomes harder to carry.) The fact that the Tower can fold is another plus when your laundry day’s done. I’ve had the chance to try the Tower, and it’s well made - the fabric tote feels sturdy enough that it won’t rip, even if it occasionally overflows. It “stores more laundry than you think it might,” she says. Aesthetically, it’s a hamper “that doesn’t really scream hamper,” Solomon adds, applauding the “sleek, no-nonsense, minimalist” look. Structurally, the hamper features a foldable steel frame and an interior insert at the bottom of the bag to keep the shape when you lug it to the washing machine. ![]() Yamazaki’s stellar reputation (its small- space- specific homewares have appeared all across our archives), combined with the smart design of the hamper itself, earned the Tower our “best overall” trophy.

So I asked experts - including professional organizers, cleaners, and one Strategist editor - about the laundry baskets and hampers they consider favorites. (It’s also a superior solution to a “ clothes chair.”) The right hamper should hold plenty while still being easy enough to carry, which isn’t the simplest balance to strike - I remember one of mine almost completely falling apart in a dorm-room hallway (I had to drag it back rather inelegantly). It’s a real workhorse, separating the dirty from the clean. But I’d argue that your hamper or laundry basket is just as important as the other essentials you haul to the laundromat (or to your in-house washer and dryer). Here at The Strategist, we’re quite obsessive about our laundry, trying out everything from actress Piper Perabo’s favorite detergent sheets to a no-rinse soap that helps slash annual dry-cleaning bills.
