I chose a backpack picnic hamper as easier to contend with than a basket...free hands! Stylish item but, I have rated it 4 stars for the simple reason no dishes or teaspoons are included in the picnic "crockery"/cutlery, only 2 plates, 2 knives, 2 forks 2 dessert spoons The backpack part of it is well made, spacious and the added waterproof backed blanket...nice bonus...is adequate for 2 people to sit on. I am happy to recommend but, you will need to supply dishes and teaspoons.
