The Market Basket is a smart alternative to plastic & paper bags. Comparable size to grocery store hand-basket. Ideally suited for farmer's markets, small grocery loads, picnics, & gardening.
Why It Gets Our Seal of Approval
Featuring innovative German design, Reisenthel Market Baskets were an instant hit with our staff. Used all over Europe, its shape & size is ideal for the local farmers market and makes it a cinch to say no to the plastic bags usually handed out. Lightweight aluminum frame and polyester covering are durable and easy to clean. Collapses down for storage. Thick rubber-grip handle, sturdy bottom & protective feet are built for use over & over. Inner zippered pocket for wallet, cell phone, keys & lists.
About the same size as a plastic grocery store basket, Market Baskets are also great for smaller grocery loads, picnics, gardening and even as storage containers. Wide & comfy rubber-grip handle can be carried by hand or over forearm. Like all Reisenthel products it is very high quality (this is the original - avoid cheap knockoffs!)

Reisenthel Product Name and Product Number
This is amazing! It is perfect for trips to the farmer's market and the padded handle makes is much more comfortable than similar baskets one lugs around at the grocery store. The zippered pockets are excellent for stashing stuff and if need be, the entire basket can be de-constructed and packed flat.

I love it
I am useing it alot more than I thought I would, or had planned to. Some how it has become my shopping bag and lunch box of sorts. When I'm rushing out the door to work I find myself throwing my protein powder and shaker, water bottle, coffee, carrots, and everything I'm going to eat for the day at work ends up in there and away I go. Then there's the given fill it up, unload at check out, and fill it up again no bags at home, and somehow I don't forget to bring it with like I do with the reuseable grocery bags. The pocket is great for coupons for the grocery store too. It's so paying for itself.

Great Mrket Basket!
All my friends want baskets now that they have seen mine. I use the basket to gather items going up and down stairs at home, and I pack it up with fabrics, notions, and notebooks to go to quilt guild meetings. I plan to get a second one to keep in the car to hold all my reusable shopping bags, coupons, etc.

Every gal needs one of these
I think this basket is awesome! It can be used for so many different tasks, of course grocery shopping but also farmers market, hobbies and crafts,and the list goes on. One thing I will always use it for are all the many outings to family & friends parties. Every holiday or get-together I'm always hunting for sacks & boxes to transport all of my snacks, drinks, ingredients to make a dish once I'm there & then you've got to get them all hauled in to their home. Now instead of dragging in all the bags that are usually tearing I can arrive looking organized & sassy.

The market basket I ordered is being used to hold
The market basket I ordered is being used to hold children's gallery activities for use in the art museum where I work. It is great for this purpose because it looks nice, and it functions well. I am very impressed with the quality of the design and construction. I now have two such baskets. The first one was purchased about 1 1/2 years ago, I was interested to see that the new basket has some subtle design improvements that make it even sturdier. Very impressive. I have had several inquiries from co-workers regarding where to buy this product. Everyone loves it.

I love this basket!
I love this basket! It's great for the farmers market, fresh produce at the grocery store (so I don't need to use produce bags), quick shopping trips, and so much more. I get a lot of compliments when I'm using it and it's very sturdy - I've had it for over year and it looks almost new.

This basket is fantastic! I bought one for myself and one for my mother. We both leave it open in the backseat of the car and take it into stores with us- set in a cart.

I love my Reisenthel Market Basket
I love my Reisenthel Market Basket. My brother gave it to me for my birthday and every time I use it at the store someone asks me where I got it. And then usually they write down the name of it and say "My wife would love that!" or " I am going to get one for my daughter". I also got one for my dad for Christmas this year. Other than everyone you see wanting to know where you got your "cute little basket" it is very functional. I love that I can just put everything I am buying in the basket, check out, and then put it right back in the basket. No need for plastic bags or trying to remember your reusable bags. It is great!

I love the market basket
I love the market basket. I purchased it for my mom because she uses a wheelchair while out shopping. I did not put the plastic supports in the 4 sides so I could collapse it more easily and carry it in a back pack.
