Width
Left to right at the widest exterior point, including any outward curve.
Choose with confidence
Find the right fit
Measure your space, compare the exact dimensions, and leave room to lift, slide, or open your piece.
Depth
Front to back at the widest exterior point of the basket.
Height
From the base to the highest edge of the basket body, standing naturally.
Handles
Look for the product note that tells you whether raised handles are included in the height.
Before buying
Measure the space first
Measure the clear width, depth, and height—not just the outside of the furniture. Allow space for your hand, raised handles, and any opening lid. Mark a floor piece’s footprint with removable tape before choosing.
Exterior vs. interior dimensions
Product measurements describe the outside of the basket. Usable interior space is smaller because the weave, rim, handles, and any taper take up room. Soft natural fibers can also settle slightly with use.
A real product example
Measure once. Choose confidently.
