We bought an Amazon Basics comforter set (twin xl) for DD2’s dorm room. She used it three years in the dorm and loved it so much that we bought the full size set in the same color when she moved into her apartment. She has used it 2 years, and I won’t be surprised if she upgrades to a queen when she moves to Chicago in June. We already have her queen bed for that apartment LOL.

I bought a folding clothes dryer rack that was an Amazon basics. I really liked it snd bought a second. We have used Amazon batteries snd they seemed to last a reasonable time.

We've had random household/kitchen items that have been fine, but I got a hoodie for myself recently and it also ran very small.

Flannel shirt - DH wants more colors.
Bra - horrible fit. Reminded me why I don't do wireless.
Flats - again, bad fit. I wanted to try a different size but it wasn't available. Reviews were pretty good though.
There's a few household goods we bought that were labeled Amazon basics but I can't remember what they are. I would say women's clothes suck, men's clothes are ok, household basics probably fine.

I have 3 Amazon Basics sweaters that I really like.
They cost $13.90. For that price I am very happy!

Batteries - their AA and AAA multipacks. Yes, we should switch to rechargeables but since we haven’t yet, that’s what we buy.
I think I’ve only bought “Amazon brands” for clothes like Goodthreads and Core 10. Overall they’re fine, on par with Target. I haven’t bought any Amazon Basics clothes.

Yes I have bought a lot of Amazon Basics over the years. The only thing I have learned not to buy from them is clothing. The fit is always terrible, the sizing is wonky and stuff just generally looks cheaper than what I'd get at Walmart for less money. Other than clothes I've been happy with the purchases.

I bought a few sweaters this fall and was very happy with them. None of my favorite stores had anything like I wanted in cotton or even cotton blends; so I took a chance. The quality was good and sizing was normal and as expected. They have washed well and are holding up just as well as my comparable J Crew Factory ones. I was pleasantly surprised.

I bought an Amazon Basics commercial pan half rack and it was just as nice as the one I’d previously bought for twice as much from Webstaurant Store.

I've bought a few iphone charging cables, batteries, vacuum storage bags, dumbbells.
I have 2 packable puffer coats that I love, but the brand is Amazon Essentials.

I know I've bought a few random things, but I'm not sure what. My general impression of them have been that they're hit or miss. I did buy a men's flannel shirt for DD for Christmas (she likes them boxy, over a tshirt) and it seems nice and sturdy. The plain white bathroom washcloths (maybe a 12-pack or a 6-pack?) were overly thin and poorly made. I don't like thick washcloths, but these are practically throwaway quality, with threads coming unraveled very quickly. The 6-pack of kitchen washcloths is similarly poor quality.

Charging cords are way better than the genuine Apple ones.
I have bought a few other things and been very happy with them. I need to check out the batteries.
I think almost any clothing, especially as you go to larger sizes is really off. I read the sizing chart carefully and measure myself. What size I wear sometimes is completely off from what the sizing chart on that item shows.

OTC medicine was like any other. I’ve bought charging cables that were fine. Probably other household basics. Never had an issue.
