I tend to be careless about laundry. I would prefer a laundry bin that enables me to just toss dirty clothes in. The fewer the motions the better. Trashcans that have foot presses that pop off the tops are great for trash. Too bad these can't be used for laundry.
For esthetics--The Savannah Divided Hamper--looks best to me.
