4. Assembly Instructions

Assembly is required. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, flat surface.
2. Unfold the Basket Body: Gently unfold the main basket body. The internal metal frame should expand to form the rectangular shape. Ensure all corners are fully extended.
3. Insert Bottom Support Panel: Place the rigid bottom support panel inside the basket, ensuring it rests flat at the base. This provides stability to the structure.
4. Insert Removable Liners: The basket features two compartments. Insert one removable cloth liner into each compartment. Ensure the edges of the liners are neatly tucked over the top rim of the basket.

5. Operating Instructions

• Sorting Laundry: Utilize the two separate compartments to sort laundry as desired (e.g., lights and darks, delicates and regular items). Each compartment has a capacity of approximately 13.2 gallons (50 liters).
• Using the Lid: Place the lid on top of the basket to conceal dirty laundry and minimize odors. The lid is not attached and can be easily removed for access.
• Portability: The basket is equipped with rope handles on both sides. Use these handles to lift and transport the basket between rooms, such as from the bedroom to the laundry room. Ensure the basket is not excessively heavy when lifting.
• Removing Liners: When ready to wash, simply lift the removable cloth bags out of the basket using their integrated handles.

6. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning Liners: The cloth liners are washable. Remove them from the basket and machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not bleach.
• Cleaning Basket Exterior: Wipe the bamboo-appearance exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• General Care: Periodically check the basket for any signs of wear or damage. Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects directly on the lid or inside the basket that could cause damage.

7. Troubleshooting

• Liner falls out when full: Ensure the liner is properly seated and its edges are folded over the top rim of the basket. Avoid overfilling the liner beyond its capacity, as this can cause it to sag or fall.
• Lid does not stay attached: The lid is designed to rest loosely on top of the basket for easy access and removal. It is not intended to be permanently attached or hinged.
• Basket appears unstable: Verify that the bottom support panel is correctly inserted and lying flat at the base of the basket. Ensure the basket is placed on a level surface.
• Damage to frame/structure: This product is designed for household laundry storage. Avoid placing excessive weight (over 22 lbs) or applying undue force to the frame, as this may cause structural damage.
