Very Handy!

Oct 15, 2018 | By Trudy Cretsinger

I've had a larger version of this for a number of years. It's been useful for transporting armloads of stuff scattered aroung the house back to where all that stuff belongs ... as well as for shopping tasks like farmer's markets, errand running at the mini-mall, and even a holiday shopping trip around my neighborhood commercial district. I bought this smaller size one for my office so I can haul books and such along with my lunch away from my desk in order to enjoy them somewhere else. This will encourage me to really take breaks outside of my workspace, enjoy some of the lovely views and siting areas around the building.

The basket was lovely, but the packing broke the handle, so I have to return it.
