So…I’ve got a confession to make. My dirty laundry used to live permanently on “that chair.” You know *that* chair. The one you swore had a purpose when you bought it, but somehow it became The Resident Laundry Pile of Doom™. It got so bad that I once found a sock from *two exes ago* under there. Romantic? No. Tragic? A little.
I used to think I just needed more time—or maybe a better folding technique? But turns out, I just needed a smarter basket. Enter: **Laundry Turtle**, the collapsible laundry basket I never knew I needed and now refuse to live without.
**What makes it different?** Aside from the fact that it doesn’t eat up your entire hallway like those clunky plastic bins, it’s actually *fun* to use. (Yes, laundry and fun in the same sentence, what is happening?) This thing folds flat when you’re not using it, stays open when you are, and for once, I don’t feel like I’m arm-wrestling a wire octopus just to move my stuff from the dryer to the bed.
Speaking of folding (ugh), have you ever tried to do laundry in a tiny apartment? My friend Kayla lives in a 400-square-foot studio with a bathroom so small you have to sit sideways to use the toilet. No lie. She swears by the Laundry Turtle, and honestly, I get it. If you’re tight on space — like dorm room meets Harry Potter closet under the stairs tight — then you need tools that *don’t* make you want to scream into a pile of gym socks. That’s where **collapsible baskets really shine**, not just for storage but for sanity. I stumbled onto this godsend of an article all about it over here: [Why collapsible laundry baskets are the best thing you’re not using yet](https://laundryturtlefoundation.org/why-collapsible-laundry-baskets-are-the-best-thing-youre-not-using-yet/). Highly recommend. Especially if you’ve ever tried to Feng Shui a 3-foot laundry zone.
Okay, so now I’m not only adulting, I’m borderline organized. The Laundry Turtle makes it **weirdly satisfying** to do laundry—like I almost look forward to it? Which is wild for someone who once re-bought underwear instead of doing a wash. (Don’t judge me. You’ve *thought* about it, be honest.)
Oh, and while we’re here, can we talk laundry accessories? I used to think all that stuff—dryer balls, folding mats, color catcher sheets—was just extra nonsense for people with Instagrammable laundry rooms and matching detergent decanters. But turns out, some accessories actually pull their weight. And the Laundry Turtle? It fits into that whole ecosystem like a peanut butter cup in a Halloween stash. I found this super-useful roundup of accessories (plus some laundry hacks I hadn’t even *heard* of) right here: [Collapse your laundry problems away](https://laundryturtlefoundation.org/collapse-your-laundry-problems-away/). Now I’ve got half a brain to buy one of those folding boards. Maybe.
Also, fun fact: my cat, Waffles, thinks the Laundry Turtle is his new bed. I didn’t have the heart to move him last week, so I did laundry using a cardboard box instead. 0/10. Do not recommend.
In conclusion? If doing laundry feels like a weekly battle between your will to live and a mountain of socks, it might be time to arm yourself properly. The Laundry Turtle isn’t just a basket—it’s a lifestyle.
What about you? Have you found any random product that made an annoying chore bearable, or dare I say…enjoyable? Drop your holy grails my way. I’ll trade you one Laundry Turtle for whatever got you through tax season.
