H&M Two-Compartment Laundry Bag
Measurements: 11 inches deep, 19.75 inches wide, 18 inches high
We were a tad wary about this plain H&M tote, but based on its 4.6-out-of-5-star rating and 35 reviews, we think it’s a good bet. Not only is it under $20 and easy on the eyes, but it’s also “larger” than many reviewers thought, and “easy to clean,” according to another customer. Plus, the center divider leaves 10 inches of space on both sides of the bag to prevent that pesky red sock from turning your whites pink.

LinenMintyRain Extra Large Linen Laundry Bag With Strap
Measurements: 23.6 inches wide, 31.5 inches high
Linen lovers, look no further — you can now stuff your breezy flax sheets, duvet covers, and button-ups into an equally airy linen laundry bag. The same way this fabric's porous nature keeps your skin cool, it lets your dirty clothes breathe rather than ferment in the corner of your closet. Which, for dorm dwellers and tenants that can only wash their clothes every so often, is quite the game-changer.
