The B&M laundry basket is just £20, while the B&Q alternative is just shy of £40.
B&M is offering a £20 laundry basket that is almost identical to a pricier £39 version on sale at rival retailer B&Q. The furniture item could be perfect for those searching for an “organised” and “sleek” storage option for their dirty clothes without harming your bank balance, with the budget retailer renowned for its bargains on homeware.
The chain boasts a wide array of items, from cabinets and wardrobes to bedside tables and even floating shelves. Yet there’s also plenty of options to give your bathroom or utility space a fresh new look.
For example, the Simply Laundry Basket priced at just £20. For some shoppers, it may serve as a more economical substitute for B&Q’s pricier Large Wooden Laundry Basket.
Both pieces look like functional additions to your home, whether that be for the bathroom, utility room, or even a bedroom where occupiers can put away their dirty clothes. But the most remarkable thing is just how similar they are to one another thanks to the polished white look.
