Home Bargains 'stress-free' £17 laundry item similar to £80 John Lewis version

Home Bargains 'stress-free' £17 laundry item similar to £80 John Lewis version The item has been out of stock since it was first released earlier this year Home Bargains shoppers have another chance to get their hands on a sold-out laundry basket that looks like a major brand worth over £100. The budget version, costing just £16.99, is available online while stocks last. As of June 11, shoppers can choose between the light grey and charcoal versions of the Utility Double Laundry Basket. The neutral beige version is still sold out, and shoppers can sign up for an email alert when more become available. Describing the basket online, Home Bargains said: "Keep laundry day neat, tidy and totally stress-free with the Utility Double Laundry Basket, designed to make sorting simple and storage stylish. With two 50L compartments, you can easily separate lights and darks (or towels and clothing). "The portable inner bags with handles mean you can lift, carry and empty each load with ease. The basket is lightweight and foldable, making it perfect for compact spaces or easy storage when not in use, and you can choose from three colours to match your home perfectly." It has previously been compared to this two-compartment laundry basket from Joseph Joseph. The luxury homeware store is selling a similar cloth hamper for £115 on its website, and the same one is available for slightly less at John Lewis from £80, depending on the colour chosen. Both hampers have a cloth exterior and easily removable sections. Aside from a major saving of almost £100, Home Bargains shoppers also get an extra 10L of space across the two compartments with the Utility Double Laundry Basket, compared to the 90L capacity of Joseph Joseph's.

A third put: "Can't tell the difference between this and the more expensive one. It's a no-brainer!" And, one more wrote: "I have the beige one, it's the best."
