50 Liter/13.2 Gallon Stainless Steel Rectangular Kitchen Step Trash Can, Brushed Stainless Steel

We are very pleased with the size and quality of the trash bin. It is tall, with a wide opening and very easy to use.

I struggled for years with cheap trash cans in my kitchen. The last one was white plastic, so cheaply made that the popup mechanism on the lid broke so it opened when the front pedal was depressed but didn't close itself. Forget about being hands-free! After the cheapo can slid out from my foot and fell over, I had had enough. I jumped on Amazon to find the best trash can I possibly could, and I was successful. This trash can simply rocks. It is heavy enough to stay in place. The soft-close lid works like a charm. The pedal is heavy-duty and will last a very long time. The whole inner plastic can is easy to work with and makes removing and replacing trash bags easy. Finally, it looks amazing! I never thought that my kitchen decor would be improved by a trash can, but this one did it. It it perfect? Close. There are a couple of things that could be improved. The lid-locking sliding button on my unit cannot be put into place by opening the lid all the way with the pedal and then sliding it into the locking position. I found that I have to slightly push the lid backward for the sliding lock to go fully into place. Then when the pedal is released, the lid stays fully out of the way when trash bags are removed and replaced. I also found that traditional trash bags from the store cannot fit onto the inner trash can without seriously stretching them. It takes some muscle. It means that children and the elderly may not be able to change the trash bag if using typical tall kitchen trash bags. I took the easy way out of this situation by ordering trash bags specifically for the trash can from the manufacturer (simplehuman). Because there are quite a few of the sample bags sent with the trash can, it took me weeks to run out of them. I found them to be quite superior to everyday trash bags because they are folded and not rolled, very easy to open and use, and they appear to be more durable than conventional trash bags. I am very satisfied with the trash bags and especially the trash can. This product is clearly more expensive than other trash cans, but it is very worth the cost and quite stylish. It may be one of the only utilitarian items in your kitchen that you frequently get compliments on.

Buen tamaño y funcionalidad

E' un oggetto molto bello a vedersi, non sembra nemmeno un secchio della spazzatura. Elegante il meccanismo di apertura ad ali del coperchio, comodissima l'apertura a pedale quando si hanno le mani occupate. Semplice da pulire e semplice anche da cambiare il sacchetto dell'immondizia. Costicchia un po' però se uno vuole inserirlo in un ambiente elegante e moderno sono tutti soldi ben spesi.

Dead serious, I’ve aspired to own this trash can since I was 12 years old. I saw them in Bed Bath & Beyond one day with my mom, and I decided that one day I would buy this trash can. Well kids, dreams really do come true – and it’s everything I hoped! Can’t overstate the simple, seemingly weird luxury of a really nice trash can. The soft-close mechanism is great, the stainless steel finish always looks sharp, and the liners are strong and fit seamlessly around the bin. Plus there are a bunch of nifty little features I wouldn’t have thought of – like having the actual container be a plastic liner inside the trash can itself, so you can bring the bin over to your workstation without hauling the whole step-can over. There’s also a step along the back of the bottom of the trash can, so that with a small lift and tilt, the liner sits slightly higher than the rest of the can for easy bag change-outs. Plus there’s the tab that keeps the lid open after you take your foot off the pedal, which I love. Bottom line: this is an impeccable, thoughtfully-designed trash can. It definitely sounds weird, but I legitimately enjoy using it. Absolutely lives up to my 12-year-old self’s dreams 😂
