This is the 4th or 5th basket I have ordered from you and each one is wonderful. I received the basket in less than a week, I was so pleasantly surprised when it arrived in such a short time. Thank you! And let me say, that I use the oval Ghana basket as a 'book bag.' I teach so I have used my old basket for almost 4 years carrying papers to correct, grade book, etc. It is so sturdy and practical for what I wanted. I use carabiner clips to hold my keys and reading glasses, it's great! Thank you again for the product and the great service. Sandy
