Best Wooden Laundry Baskets in the UK

Calling ASPECT Oslo a laundry basket would be a little reductive. It's not that it isn't or can't be used as one but a stylish and versatile storage cabinet would be a more apt description.

The whole thing measures 56 x 35.5 x 61.5 centimetres in overall dimensions, so it isn't necessarily the largest bathroom cupboard on the market today but it is definitely up there. The model is really spacious and you'll be able to hide and store many different articles inside, from clothes to cleaning items.

What we really like, however, is the reinforced hinged top lid. Needless to say, you can put brushes and shavers on top of this thing. However, that "reinforced" part also means that the lid will be able to support your average individual's weight, so you can even use it as a stool.

The only problem we have with this lid is that the top hinges that fasten the model to the wall are left exposed, making the otherwise stylish and elegant cabinet looking a little less attractive.

On the other hand, we do not have any problems with its assembly. Everything required to put it together comes with the package and it should take you about 5 minutes tops.

Bottom line, ASPECT Oslo incorporates that minimalistic Scandinavian design that will usually prove a perfect fit for a bathroom. With some rooms, it will be able to class up the interior. With others, the model will disappear into the surroundings.

First and foremost, what we like about this wooden laundry basket/cabinet from Costway is its size. Featuring 27 x 27 x 61 centimetres in overall dimensions, the model is relatively tall but really slim and narrow.

With a profile like that, this little cabinet will prove compact enough for smaller homes and narrow corners. You won't have to re-arrange the furniture to find enough space for it in the bathroom, bedroom, or living room.

Another little detail that pertains to the model's construction is these nice little side holes that allow for easy shifting. The easy-to-open lid mechanism is nice too. It is surprisingly strong and durable and it will unlikely loosen up or start creaking after a year or two.

As far as the model's appearance is concerned, we don't really have any complaints. The white finish looks neutral but elegant, allowing the cabinet to blend in with your average modern or traditional setting. Though the neutral part is definitely there, the model's streamlined carving pattern and wooden linen make it appear delicate and noticeably more elegant than your average cabinet like that.

All in all, this little wooden laundry cabinet from Costway has a really well-thought-out design. The model is as charming and attractive as it is practical and functional. Plus, the MDF wood is durable and dampproof.

With this wooden laundry basket from Home Discount, you will be able to keep your bathroom tidy, neat, and organised. Though the model is really practical, we would first like to address its appearance. With a sleek and smooth white finish, this little chest will be able to complement just about any decor, from contemporary and modern to traditional and mid-century.

As far as the model's overall design is concerned, it doesn't necessarily look that much different from your average cabinet like that but there is a thing or two that separates the model from this cabinet crowd.

For one, this laundry bin comes equipped with these nice little side panels and a back panel, making sure that your toiletry doesn't fall down and get lost somewhere around the bathroom.

The feet are nice too, reliable and sturdy enough to keep the cabinet in place but without leaving marks on the floor. The model adds up to 56 x 38 x 58 centimetres in overall dimensions, so it isn't too small and offers ample storage space.

For our taste, the only real downside is that the whole thing can be a little difficult to put together but that's subjective and depends on the individual.

In closing, the Home Discount wooden laundry cabinet looks good and it is very easy to maintain its attractive appearance. It will be able to complement and mesh well with just about any decorative scheme. Plus, it doesn't hurt that the model is really practical too.

Yaheetech White Wooden Laundry Bin is a large and deep chest. It measures 40 x 40 x 61 centimetres in overall dimensions and it doesn't have any baffles inside, meaning that the model will be able to hold ample washing and towels.

You don't necessarily have to put this laundry box in the bathroom though. Though its elegant and minimalistic exterior certainly fits your average bathroom setting, the model will absolutely work as a storage cabinet in the bedroom or living room. You can put it in your kid's room and use it for blankets, bed sheets, pillows, toys, the list goes on.

Besides, you don't have to assign the cabinet to a particular room for years to come. Equipped with nice little hand holes on the sides, the model allows for convenient and easy transportation. Furthermore, these hand holes also double as ventilation holes, allowing your clothes to breathe and making sure they don't start building up unpleasant smells.

The cabinet is not difficult to put together and it looks pretty good too. However, the paint job is passable at best, so it doesn't always maintain its elegant appearance for a long time.

In other words, Yaheetech White Wooden Laundry Bin is a practical and efficient storage solution. There isn't a household that won't be able to put this wooden cabinet to good use. Plus, it offers lots of space inside.

This white wooden laundry basket from MS INTL is very similar to every cabinet in this selection. We don't really have any major issues with it. As far as we're concerned, the only weak link here is the screws that come with the package. Provided you don't replace them with your own, you'll probably have to occasionally adjust the screws that hold the lid.

That being said, the mounting hardware that comes supplied with the cabinet (excluding the aforementioned screws) and the instruction manual are nothing to complain about.

Other than that, the only reason the model scores so low down this list is that it doesn't necessarily excel in any particular category. With 51 x 40 x 51 centimetres in overall dimensions, it is relatively spacious and compact at the same time but not really the most spacious or compact cabinet here.

With a streamlined carving pattern and white finish, it looks pretty great but, again, nothing we haven't seen before. It does, however, have these nice little side holes that allow for easy shifting and transportation, a nice little detail that you won't always find in these storage cabinets.

Long story short, MS INTL isn't the best prospect on the market today but it is far from the worst either. The model is definitely better than your average wooden laundry basket. The MDF wood here is solid and durable. The assembly is easy and straightforward. And the price is pretty attractive.
