What fits on laundry basket shelves

A holder only works if your baskets slide into its tiers. Most makers don’t give the size of each opening, so measure your baskets’ width and depth and ask the seller before you buy. Verssure is the one that names a basket, the Sterilite bushel basket. For basket sizes, see laundry basket dimensions.

You need to know your baskets fit; LEAPOAK doesn't give the opening size.

The LEAPOAK is the low, wide one, a wooden shelf on wheels that slides under a counter or beside the washer, for baskets you already have. It’s sold in white, black and slate grey, with 2, 3 and 4 tier versions.

It has only about 66 ratings, and they split sharply: most owners are happy, and about one in eight give it one star. The one-star reviews are about the hardware. One owner says the 54 screws in the kit were too thin for the pre-drilled holes, and another had to get a replacement kit for the same reason. Check the screws against the holes before you start.

What owners say

  • Positive: Owners say it's sturdy, easy to build and the right size for laundry baskets in a small laundry room.
  • Negative: About one in eight rate it one star. Two say the kit came with screws that didn't fit the holes; one got a replacement kit.

You want wood.

The Verssure is the safe choice if you own Sterilite bushel baskets, because it’s the only holder whose maker names a basket it takes. It’s metal rather than wood, and taller than the LEAPOAK, with a top shelf for detergent and folded towels. Its open front lets the baskets slide in and out without lifting them over a rail. With 11 ratings it’s too new to say how it lasts.

What owners say

  • Mixed: Owners call it a good space saver for sorting laundry, but one had to return a first rack that arrived scratched. Only 11 ratings so far.

Wooden laundry basket holder with baskets

The khlerox is the one to get if you don’t have baskets yet, because four come with it. It builds two ways, upright or side by side under a counter, and it’s the only solid wood frame here.

The frame draws praise; the baskets that come with it draw the complaints. One owner says most of the handles broke within two months, and another that the baskets are too narrow for the tiers and slide out. If that happens, the frame still takes other baskets, so measure the tiers once it’s built.

What owners say

  • Positive: Owners say it's sturdy, doesn't wobble, and is bigger than they expected once it's built.
  • Negative: One says most of the basket handles broke within two months, and one that the baskets are too narrow and slide out.

Your laundry baskets are full size; its own baskets are smaller.

The LITTLE TREE fits where the others don’t, at under 15 inches wide. It’s the tallest here, so it comes with an anti-tip fitting, and its three slanted baskets are its own. Those baskets are smaller than a full laundry basket, which makes it a stand for sorted smalls and folded clothes rather than full loads. Owners say it’s sturdy once it’s together, but several say the holes don’t line up.

What owners say

  • Positive: Owners say it's sturdy once built and suits a small space.
  • Negative: Building it is the complaint: several say the holes don't line up, and one says to set aside a good while for all the parts.
