Awhile back I made a post about writing for a new company
called Dorm. Co and I got to review one of their laundry totes! Well I got the
tote, I used the tote and I love the tote, to see my original announcement post

Most women hate doing laundry but I must admit I actually
enjoy it. Folding clothes is kind of like a little stress relief program for
me, plus nothing beats the feeling of nice warm clothes and sheets fresh out of
the dryer. It however was getting to where I was doing laundry two to three
times a week because the basket was filling up so quick. Dorm co took care of
that for me. Their laundry tote held nearly twice the laundry my enormous
basket did and it was a zillion times easier to carry when it was time to wash!
I can most certainly see why college students would fall in
love with these nifty little things.
Did I mention how cute it is too! I know cute, I am as girly
as girly gets!
I was going to write my post about three days ago but I
wanted to really put the tote to the test. We were going on a little mini
vacation so I wanted to give it a good run. It folds nice and neatly for
packing into a suit case to take with for starters. Then instead of trying to separate
all the dirty clothes from the clean ones when it was time to go home all I had
to do was put the tote in the trunk like it was luggage (full of dirty
clothes). It saved me time and money by getting to do this too because I didn’t
have to take extra time while on vacation to do laundry or go to a Laundromat either.
I got the luxury of doing it at home.
The test was not over though. I had to check the durability
of the tote, so what a better way than to give it to my four year old to drag
(because he could not lift) the tote up the drive way when we were unpacking
the car? My skin cringed as I watched him do it but I wanted to be able to give
a full review. The nylon did not rip nor tear and you can see in the picture
below how long of a walk from the road to the porch it was for him to drag it
across the driveway.
I did manage to count the number of articles of clothing I
had stuffed into the bag and it was 143! That includes my husband blue jeans
(thick, work blue jeans), our every day clothes and my toddlers clothes. I
should also note that that number does not include socks or underwear!
Overall I give the tote 9 out of 10 stars! The only difficulty I had
with it was once its full, unless you find somewhere good to prop it up, it
tends to tip over L
spilling my clothes on to the floor. This can be easily fixed by pulling the
drawstrings together however and closing the top. Sometimes you just have to be
smarter than the product lol.
