height adjustable laundry basket

height adjustable laundry basket - open-source assistive technology prototype by the Pennsylvania State University community

The challenge

We created this product to help Zach do his laundry without bending over

Who it helps

Zach is a college student at Penn State studying accounting. Zach suffers from chronic back issues and struggles bending over.

How it works

By having the laundry basket move up and down, Zach will not need to bend down to do his laundry, making the process pain free.

We are building a laundry basket that its height is adjustable.
