Mahogany Finished Bowed Front Laundry Hamper with Interior Bag

I ordered this hamper last week and it arrived on Friday evening. Unfortunately, it was badly damaged. On Monday morning, I called OceanStar but there was no answer and all I got was a machine so after several attempts, I decided to return it to Amazon. It was the first time I've had to do a return but it was very fast and easy.I printed out the return label, packed it up and took it to the UPS store. When I got home, I was surprised to see that Amazon had already shipped a replacement. A couple of hours later, I received a call from OceanStar. The caller was very nice and apologized for not answering my calls. It turned out that they are in the process of moving to a new location and their phone system was not set up yet. He told me if there was any problem with the replacement to send them an email and they would ship me whatever I needed. It is nice to know that OceanStar stands behind their products.The replacement hamper arrived today and this one is perfect. I like the natural finish and bow front and it went together quickly and easily. The liner is generously sized so it does not reduce the amount of storage.This hamper is a huge improvement over my old one and I could not be more pleased. Even though the first hamper arrived damaged, I still gave this product five stars because of the great customer support from both Amazon and OceanStar. Please note that this product does require assembly although it is very easy. All that is needed are flat head and phillips head screwdrivers.

I actually really like this a lot, which is why I kept it. The type of screws to put it together are really funky and not easy to use. It was hard to get them to catch and ultimately what I ended up doing was getting some long nails and securing it from the back with nails. I actually really like this hamper, which is why I kept it. If I didn’t really like it I just would’ve sent it back. But the screws are not easy....They aren’t even screws, I’ve never seen anything like these and I’ve assemble tons of stuff. But if you just get some long screws or nails you can put it together and anything you did like that would be really discreet. Otherwise it’s super nice and the perfect size

We purchased this hamper for our boys' bedroom, which has dark wood flooring and espresso-colored furniture. As others have mentioned, the "mohagany finish" is a solid black, not an espresso. I built it in 15 minutes with no issues. I think the other reviewers who experienced trouble are not familiar with the hardware used to join the pieces of wood together. The frame appears to be solid wood, but the body of it is most likely made up of light-duty pressed wood. So the quality is average. If someone sat on the top, for example, it would certainly break. Nevertheless, the pressed wood probably keeps the weight down significantly so that carrying it to the laundry room isn't a weight-lifting routine. It features two holes in the sides for easy lifting. The hardware is comprised of brass hinges and a locking mechanism that holds the lid open slightly past 90 degrees. There are two thin rubber stoppers in the corners of the lid that keep it from slamming, but it still makes quite a sound when dropping it shut - probably the vibration from the pressed wood portion of the lid. I would rate the price on the high side for what the product is, but overall am happy with the purchase.

Despite some previous reviews about the product arriving damaged and being hard to assemble, our experience was just the opposite. The parts were very well wrapped and protected for shipment. It is hard to believe how things could have been damaged. Of course, it could have happened at the factory which would indicate a quality control problem. My husband found it easy to assemble. We love it.

I bought this with trepidation because I read a number of reviews about how cheap it looked, how hard it was to put together and how shoddy it was. I have to say, that I haven't had any of these issues. It was about $80, which is not cheap, but it also isn't expensive enough for me to expect it to be fantastic quality wood. It's exactly the quality that I'd expect for the price and it looks perfectly nice. All of the parts arrived in working order with extra screws just in case. Nothing was chipped or scuffed. In terms of putting it together, I cannot fathom how people have had an issue. I am NOT handy. Truly, not at all. I have cried trying to put together Ikea furniture and I invariably have to recruit someone else to do it for me (I kid you not. It's shameful). So, if I can put this together (and I did. Easily.) then ANYONE can. Seriously. Overall, this piece totally met my expectations in relation to what I'd paid. I got it in white, if that makes a difference to anyone.

Purchased 2, one lid was chipped and the other warped. Outside of the lids being messed up the constructuon was easy, directions simple and all the parts went together easily. I emailed the manufacturer over Easter weekend and they had 2 proper replacemnts to me within 4 days. Updated the review from 1 to 5 stars for prompt customer service, free replacement and good product.

I ordered this for my bathroom along with several other cabinets and shelves. I love the look and the size of this hamper, but I did have one problem. While assembling the hamper, two of the pieces that hold the sides together broke when I turned them with a screwdriver. Luckily, I was able to find the pieces I needed and order them to replace the broken ones. Everything worked out fine and the hamper looks great in my bathroom.

Very nice, appears smaller but holds a lot. Looks great, assembles easily, may buy another!

The laundry hamper looks exactly as advertised and arrived a day early. It is constructed well. We are using it in our basement laundry room. The only problem I had was during assembly one of the fasteners broke tightening it onto the pin. They did have a spare one. Just dont over tighten when assembling it as the fastener looks like it is made of white metal and not as strong as steel. otherwise we are very happy with this product.

Love that it looks more like furniture than a hamper

Very well made & easy to assemble. Terrific size.

-Looks small but holds lots of laundry-Wood feels thin and sounds like it made of plastic-Not hard to put together
