    Design & Functionality
    Reisenthel Market Baskets are an updated version of the classic wicker basket. They're a practical size for quick runs to the grocery store, market or as carryall around town. It's an ideal tool for groceries: use in place of plastic baskets, pack and haul home. The sturdy base helps prohibit tipping & spilling. Assembly is simple – expand the lightweight handle from the frame & lock in the up position. Thin inserts are provided to give extra support along the sides. The soft rubber handle is comfortable to grip and is big enough to hook around the forearm. Rigid bottom & protective feet reinforce the base & help reduce abrasion. An inner zippered pocket is convenient for a wallet, cell phone, keys & lists.

    Materials
    Made from tear-proof polyester. Reisenthel materials are remarkably robust and durable, with colorful designs that are a great way to spread the message of environmental sustainability.

    Sustainability
    Reisenthel Market Baskets are another tool to help you cut down on disposable plastic & paper bags (especially at the farmer's market). They are also a smart alternative to cardboard boxes. Well made and designed to last, using Market Baskets can help eliminate hundreds of disposable bags over a lifetime.

    Reisenthel's philosophy is based on creating products that enhance quality of living while being respectful to the environment. All Reisenthel products are made from recyclable materials of the highest quality. Bottom line, they look amazing and you'll want to use them - making it easy to say no plastic and paper bags.

    by Jen B - 11/2008

    I saw this beautiful basket for the first time in the Copenhagen Design Museum shop in 2003 and bought it on the spot. Even though it was $69, it was worth every penny. I always get compliments on it wherever I go. Since they've been introduced in the US, I've bought more for myself (I have 4) and gave as gifts to friends & family. It's durable and well designed. I only wish Riesenthel would bring the bike basket version of this over to the US. I saw it in Germany and wish I would've bought one then.

    Love this basket. Nothing gets beat up in it and it is balanced and light enough in itself to carry. Fits right into shopping cart and car trunk too.

    by Leah R - 08/2008

    I love this pretty basket. I wanted it as soon as I saw it. I haven't had many opportunities to use the basket very much yet. However, I love that I have this basket for times when I need only a few items and when going to the farmer's market. No more touching the germ laden baskets and carts in the stores.

    by Leah S - 02/2008

    I got my basket a few weeks ago and wasn't going to write a review initially. I love my basket, but didn't have anything insightful to add about it... until now. I was driving down a busy street yesterday when I saw a mama duck and some ducklings trying to cross. I got out of my car to help, but someone else orphaned the ducklings before I could get to them. Fortunately, I was able to corral the survivors and tote them in my basket to the wildlife rescue center. So, it hauls groceries and saved 10 baby ducklings as well.

    I love this basket and use it for all kinds of things from carrying meals to friends' houses and taking my baby's bottles (and all the paraphernalia that go with them!) when traveling long distances. It is fabulous for all things hot and cold and it's easy to clean. What a great gift!

    Good for EVERYTHING

    by Krisandra B V - 12/2009

    I ADORE this basket. We use it for the grocery store and the farmer's market, of course, but it's also ideal for taking covered dishes to a party, carrying crafts to work on with friends, and lugging kids' toys, sunscreen, etc. to the pool in the summer. (The zipper pocket inside is perfect for keeping car keys and a wallet secure and hidden.) I have the "flora" and and just bought the "baroque sand" for my mom's birthday. Both designs are beautiful, and she was delighted!

    LOVE IT!

    by Kimberly K - 11/2009

    I can't say enough about these baskets. I own two and have given a couple as gifts. I use it constantly for small trips to the grocery store. I don't have to use the grocery store baskets with all of the bacteria from other people handling them. Clerks love it because it stays open and is easy to load. I also use it to transfer items to and from work and hold knitting when I am doing a project. Item is well constructed and well worth the money. Don't be fooled by knock-offs in your big chain retail stores. They do not compare in quality.

    I love my market basket

    by Kelsey K - 10/2009

    I love my market basket. I use it every week when i go to the store. The pattern is very pretty and i get comments on it every week. I will be so happy to use it at our local farmers market this summer. It is perfect when you have just a few things you need, but is also helpful when you have a lot. All in all i am very pleased with my purchase.

    I received my flora basket as a gift from a friend

    by Katrina F - 08/2009

    I received my flora basket as a gift from a friend whose basket I admired, and absolutely LOVE IT! I just sent one to my sister for her birthday, and she likes it, too. The basket is easy to put together, sturdy, comfortable to carry, and beautiful as well. People ask me all the time where I got my basket, and I point them here. I use it for our local farmer's market (the inside pocket is great for keys and cash), for quick trips to the grocery store, for picknicking (it holds a blanket, lunch, toys, drinks for me and my two young sons beautifully), and as a catch-all for heading out the door. I use it so often that I never collapse it down, though that would be handy, should the need ever arise; the plastic stays will fit in the inside pocket. I even use the sturdy plastic/velcro bag it came in for holding my son's art supplies. He loves his art bag, and I like being able to see what all is in there.

    by Tricia P - 06/2009

    I\'ve been in the process of moving and had my Market Basket sent to my sister-in-law\'s home. I just opened the box last night and it\'s looks wonderful. I\'ll be using it today for the 1st time. I saw 2 while shopping at the farmer\'s market in Madison, WI and asked about where they are bought their basket. Both women said they had received them as gifts and just loved them. I went to your website after returning from the farmer\'s market and bought one immediately. We\'ll be back in Madison, WI this coming weekend and I can\'t wait to use it at the Farmer\'s Market. I will be buying more to give as gifts to my friends and family.

    by Joanne S - 05/2009

    I'm using the basket to carry dishes and silverware to and from the table on our dock. What's taken 4 trips in the past is down to 1 or maybe 2. I love it. I also have the bottle carrier. Every time we take it to Costco and load it up with wine someone asks where we got it. We promptly say: reusablebags.com
