All it takes is one little hole, one little tear, one little wear point and that's it. Entire thing leaks. I mean, if you only go "camping" once a year, this gets lightly used, and it's stored in a temp/humidity/UV controlled environment, I'm sure you'll get a few years out of it. Well, before you poke a hole in it with a fork -- or wear out a hole on the fold point -- or old age causes the seam to fail or the material to disintegrate.
If you're on a backpacking trip, you're probably not bringing this anyways. So if you're going to a regular campsite where you can easily haul things in and out -- you'd be better served with a rigid plastic washbasin (such as those from Sterilite). Those go for ~$3, will last many years of normal (almost daily) use, and can be repurposed outside of this narrow "camping" use case (bathroom, kitchen, storage, etc).
I used one of them for four years (and multiple moves) to handwash delicate articles of clothing weekly, and when it was dry, it was used for storage in the closet. I still have that same basin today, over two decades later. There's no reason why you can't toss it in the car for washing something at a campsite.

I found some on Amazon for a bit more but with these features. Just a quick search. Just something to keep in mind before buying ✌️
