Forty litres — one full wash load for one or two people. A few days of clothes, a set of towels, or a load of delicates. It is not a family-sized hamper, and we say so deliberately.

Three centimetres, and 65.5cm long flat. It fits in the gap between a washer and dryer, under a bed, behind a door, or in an RV cupboard.

Press on the ends of the handle, not the middle. Squeezing the middle bends the arch away from the slots. Line each end up with its slot and push until it clicks. It's a one-time job of about five minutes — once fitted, they stay fitted.

Yes, and that's intentional. Rigid plastic bins crack at the corners under a full load. Flexible polypropylene gives instead of splitting. The base is reinforced for the weight.

No. Wipe it clean with a damp cloth. Heat can warp the folding hinges.
