'Organized and fabulous' – I already have this Joseph Joseph laundry basket, but it’s so good I’m buying another for my bedroom while there is a $30 discount

I have a brilliant Joseph Joseph laundry basket in the hallway of my home, which helps us separate dirty washing as it goes in, with three handy compartments for whites, colored clothes, and dark laundry.

It’s so good, I’m buying the two-compartment version for my bedroom, as late at night, I don’t want to wake up my daughter with our creaky doors. I’ve been keeping an eye out, and now the Joseph Joseph 90-litre laundry basket is more than $30 off at Amazon, so I am snapping it up.

It’s a great way to save time while doing laundry and is particularly useful for me as I have chronic pain, and getting down on the floor to sort a mass of garments hurts my joints.

Ever since getting the larger version of this laundry basket, which lives in our hallway, my young daughter has found it very simple to separate her washing, and it makes doing laundry quicker on our end. Everything is already separated and ready to be taken down to our washer in sturdy bags that come with long handles.

This 90-liter two-compartment version is a perfect companion laundry basket in our bedroom.

Amazon shoppers love it too, with verified shopper Trisza Bay rating it five stars, and calling it ‘The Ultimate Laundry Hamper You Didn’t Know You Needed’.

In her online review, she explains, ‘Laundry may never be glamorous, but the Joseph Joseph Tota 90-Liter Laundry Hamper makes it feel almost chic! If you’re tired of juggling dirty clothes or having to separate whites and colors at the last minute, this hamper is about to become your new best friend.’

Trisza also explains that she loves how the ‘sleek, modern design blends seamlessly with any room decor. It's a hamper that doesn’t scream, “Hey, look at all the dirty laundry!” Instead, it whispers, “I’m organized and fabulous.”’

Much like my love of the removable wash bags this laundry basket features, the reviewer also says the bags with handles 'are a game-changer. Sorting laundry has never been easier. You can pre-separate your lights, darks, delicates, or even by family member. No more sorting crises on laundry day! Plus, the bags are lightweight, sturdy, and super easy to carry straight to the washer.’

She finished her glowing review with, ‘It’s the perfect mix of function and flair, and it might even make you look forward to laundry day. (Okay, maybe not, but it’ll definitely make it easier!). I'm getting two more.’

I don’t blame her, as it’s so incredibly useful; I am taking the plunge with a second one while the $30+ discount lasts.
