Great basket but poor quality control

Bought stones, conical basket and love it. It's just great on my bike and gives it character. Unfortunately I had to exchange it twice because the basket arrived damaged. I kept the third one I got and it's pictured here on my cruiser. The plate is crooked, but at least the braid is intact. The fabric is more fragile than I expected but the finished product is beautiful. I usually throw my sweater, phone, and water bottle in the trash and I'm not worried about breaking them just yet.

Terrible quality and finish - broke on 5th outing!

Terrible quality - do not buy! This basket looks adorable and I have received many compliments. But the workmanship and quality are disgusting! I only ever put my phone in it and only used the basket 4-5 times and the bottom cracked! This is absolutely amazing for the price of $50! The basket should definitely hold more than a mobile phone and last longer than a few bike rides! Very very disappointing purchase and looks like it has been too many weeks to return. Do yourself a favor and don't…

Cheaper than it looks online

I bought a stained glass basket. The color is darker than the stock picture. It's more of an ash brown. The material of the basket is definitely cheaper than expected and it seems like it could break easily. The bottom panel that covers the inside of the basket is NOT as shown in some customer reviews. The bottom of the basket is questionable as to how long it will last. The ends of the rattan stick out (meaning they can easily break off and/or get caught on something). For over 60€ I expected…

Not super durable, but very pretty.

not super strong but very pretty. I would give four stars for the lack of durability but let's be honest you buy this because it's great. We bought one of these for my wife's cruiser 10 years ago. He looks very cute and holds her stuff very well. But it's wicker, which means it will break if exposed to inclement weather, and ours ended up breaking. We went shopping, and yet there is nothing nicer. So we're going to leave her bike in the garage, carefully remove the basket when we put the bike…

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • not sure

too good to be tied to a bike

I just wanted a small basket for my bike, big enough for my phone and camera. I thought this one was smaller than the others because I misread the dimensions. I wanted to return it. I kept telling myself to get it back. It's too expensive for something I can't even use. It doesn't fit my bike. The belts are too far apart for my city dweller. And even if it did fit, it would be a shame to tie it to your bike. Then why didn't I return it? I put flowers there just out of curiosity. It looked very…
