Steel Mesh Round Wastebasket for Under a Desk or Corner

An open mesh basket lets air through. It also lets everyone see what you threw away.

What Are the Key Features of This Steel Mesh Basket's Reinforced Rim?

• Black wire: the weave goes dark and the bag behind it stops being the first thing a visitor sees.
• Open mesh all the way round: air moves through the sides, so damp paper dries out. A solid wall seals it in and it turns.
• Solid edging top and bottom, on a solid metal base: the rim is where wire baskets fray and snag; this one is finished at both ends and stands flat.
• 600 g: light enough to lift with two fingers and empty one handed, even for a child.
• Soap and a damp cloth: wire holds on to nothing, so you wipe it, shake off the excess water and let it air dry.

Where Can You Use This Round Steel Mesh Basket?

• Under a desk, in a room people sit in
• In the corner of a bedroom
• Beside a dressing table
• In a student room
• In a small office

Why Can't a Plastic Basket Be Ventilated the Way This Steel Mesh One Is?

• Black hides what the weave shows: a pale basket reads every crumpled ball through it, and white yellows and smears in an office.
• Steel is the only way to ventilate a basket: a plastic one with holes goes oval the first time somebody stands it on its side.
• Finished at both ends that fail: solid edging on the top rim and the bottom, so cut wire cannot catch a bag, then a hand, then splay.
