A zipper runs across the lid instead of a lift-off top, so the opening closes fully and dirty laundry stays sealed away in a bedroom or guest bathroom. Behind it sits a 19-gal bamboo basket rated to hold 33 lb, enough for towels and bedding as well as everyday clothes. The poly-cotton liner detaches for a machine wash, and a metal frame with a bottom support plate stops the 16-in by 12.5-in by 23.5-in body from bowing when full. At only 3.5 lbs the frame also folds flat when the hamper is not in use.
