WIRE MESH FOLDING BASKET BLACK 13 X 8.625 X 8.625"

Eleven81 Wire Mesh Folding Basket Black, 13 X 8.625 X 8.625" Review

I just bought my second after a trial run with the first. So I guess I'm convinced they are worth the money.
Since these baskets are sold as singles as opposed to some that are only available in sets of two - I bought just one in case I had problems.
What I liked:
The size is convenient for a grocery bag. It's a little bigger than it needs to be, which makes things a little easier.
The wire mesh doesn't let small things drop through, but still drains water.
It's pretty strong. I packed it full of liquid filled containers (water, tea, soda, etc... maybe 25 pounds... enough to tip the bike) then road about a mile. I hit normal bumps (nothing huge mind you) and the basket held up without any problem at all.
When folded-up flat, there is just enough room left to store my "U" lock, which I have found quite delightful.

What could be improved:
The mounting hardware was designed for a bike rack with smaller diameter framing than I have (mine frame is 3/8" diameter). It looks like it is designed for 1/8" diameter frames, but might work on 1/4" (just guessing here.)
I had to mount the rack a little further back (about 2") to clear my heel when peddling. Not a huge problem but this puts the rack behind my rear light and so obstructs it slightly. It also puts the load on the rack off center where it is designed to support a load. Lastly, it detracts from the aesthetics of the bike more than it must.
The instructions for mounting the rack should be ignored. They will waste time, and provide no real help.
