Homespice D?cor Jute Braided Rug

This braided basket's photo is misleading. It will NOT stand up on it's own. The braiding is so heavy that the sides collapse into the center of the basket. I'm very displeased. Additionally, it was folded into sixths and smashed into a very flat box for shipping. We have tried to use inserts inside it to try to TRAIN IT to stand up on it's own--to no avail. It's pretty, AND HUGE, but unless it is fully loaded, expect to see the sides leaning in on each other...

I gave this to my daughter-in-law for Christmas and she LOVES it. It's well made and roomy with beautiful colors.
