Abstract
Multi-piece nestable basket sets are disclosed. In some embodiments, the basket sets comprise a handle component and a basket component. The present disclosure describes a system of shipping the components separately and assembling the components into a basket set prior to retail sale to customers. Exemplary basket components are configured to allow a first basket component to nest within a second basket component. In some embodiments, the basket sets herein can provide a centrally-located handle so that the set may be carried with one hand. A connecting mechanism is described wherein a handle component is connected to a basket component to create an integrated basket set that resists disassembly. Multiple embodiments of connecting mechanisms are described. One exemplary connecting mechanism comprises a handle component having two flanges that snap onto the base of a basket.
