38 Liter / 10 Gallon Rectangular Kitchen Step Trash Can, Brushed Stainless Steel

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.

Slim modern design fits nicely in a kitchen corner. Sturdy dual containers make disposal of garbage and recycling easy in one area. Size is sufficent for 1 bag between trash pickups. This was a replacement for one purchased in 2017. You won't regret this purchase and get the special bags. Never had a bag failure.

The ultimate trash can! *Love that the lid closes softly - not with a bang. *The lid also has a lock to keep it open, if you need that at any time; just make sure that the lid is an inch or 2 from the wall for the lock to engage. (The lock is a small orange-colored sliding button on the right side near the hinge, when the lid is open.) * The finish is great - brushed silver that’s ionized so that it doesn’t pick up fingerprints & smudges. * The pedal works silently, and easily. * The bags are great - this model uses the Q size bags. The description shows size H, but Q is the correct size. * This trash can is sturdy & heavy in its shipping box. Open the box top, look down inside to find the pedal, then lower the box on the side that does NOT have the pedal, to a floor that has carpeting on it, and slide the can out. Set it upright. It has wheels that roll forwards & backwards. * Simple to install & remove the bags. The inner can has a tilt feature - pull it up a few inches & tilt it forward - it will stay in that position for removing the bag or installing a new one. Or, you can remove the entire inner can.

Once you get over the hurdle of paying this much for a trashcan, you'll be glad you did. It's way more elegant than a trashcan has any right to be, works very well, and brings effective design to something you likely use multiple times a day. Thoughts: * Lid seems to seal well, closes quietly. * You can pop the lid open part way for small trash (no need to open it all the way). * I got the stainless lid because why put a plastic lid (that'll discolor/scratch over time) on a trashcan like this? * There's some (not much) wasted space inside to fit those nicely curved containers. * Containers lift out pretty easily, but don't have handles. * Containers stand up on their own (ie, while you change bags). * Two sizes of Simplehuman bags are included (10 of each). They're extra sturdy. * Capacity is GOOD if you don't need to throw away giant things and you don't generate a lot of BOTH trash and recycling. Apart from price, there's two major drawbacks: * Custom trash bags - I don't want to deal with that. The competing Kohler uses normal kitchen (13gal) bags. I think I can use them here but there's not much space to tuck the extra material. * The smaller container fills up fast. So if you use it for recycling, it won't take many containers. If you use it for trash (I do), normal use will fill it quickly. This is sized for a home where there's not a lot of people and/or you don't generate a lot of trash. Pictured: Closed and Open under a counter lip with 35.5" clearance. Notice it fits cleanly, even open. Assuming everything holds up as well as I expect from other reviews, this is the last kitchen trashcan I'll buy for a long time, it works very well for my volume of waste, and thus it's Recommended. Even if I'm embarrassed at spending so much on a trashcan.

I bought this for my fiancee as she hated my other kitchen trash can which required you to press a button on the lid of to get it to open. I splurged on this $150 trash can after reading the reviews and threw away a perfectly good $20 trash can so I was hoping this thing performed 7.5 times as well to make up for my loss. In only using it about a week so far, it seems to be pretty nice, and I'm happy with it. The foot pedal seems pretty sturdy and doesn't creak or make noises or seem flimsy when you step on it which is nice. The standard kitchen trash can liners we had for our other cans fit perfectly on these and the step for holding the inside liner while you change the bag is a nice touch as well. The lid also closes without any noise at all, so its completely quiet. The one thing I was concerned about that I couldn't find mentioned in any other reviews was how long it takes to close. I was worried that since it appears to close quite slowly and softly, that a lot of the odor would be let out every time you open it, which when you're cooking, can be quite often. A lot of times after throwing away scraps when trimming fresh meat, the trash will really start to wreak and I became accustomed to opening and closing my other trash can with ninja like precision and quickness in order to contain the rotting meat odor until I finally succumbed and changed the bag. I'm happy to say that if you lightly step on the trash can you can open it only enough to throw something in without it taking a full 6 seconds or so to close, there by avoiding fumigating the room with the stench of your weeks worth of rotting chicken scraps. I will say that it does so fingerprint-proof, but I have found that not to be totally true. It definitely leaves marks if you touch it, but then that just begs the question of why are you touching the step trash can anyway, so I guess I guess I can't complain too much. Ours rests on a very slight bump between where the carpet and tile meet in the kitchen/dining area, and I've found that if it isn't level, for some reason the lid will not close completely on its own and stays open an inch or so. Once the can is level it is fine, however. For this reason, the fact that it's not really fingerprint proof, and the very high price, I'll dock it 1 star, but it is still a very nice looking and seemingly functional and well built product, nonetheless.

I wasn’t sure if a fancy garbage can was worth it but so far it definitely has been! Keeps gross scents locked in and has convenient feature which makes replacing bags easier. It looks good in our kitchen and is super sturdy.

Love this trash can. Simplehuman 50L/13 gal is large enough for the kitchen. Stainless is very nice n easy to clean. Can liner lifts up and tilts forward and holds up to empty and put in new bags. Q size simplehuman liners fit perfectly and strong. Lid works great. Would highly recommend. Little pricey but worth it. Get one and you won’t regret it.

Ok, I loved my kitchen trashcan. Like I really LOVED it. You probably think that's crazy, but then you're probably not a 34 year old woman who obsessively notices details. It was the most perfectly designed kitchen trash I've ever seen. It completely concealed the trash bag inside it (not sticking out under the lid or anywhere), it had an internal plastic bin in case anything leaked, the stainless steel and black looked nice, it didn't feel flimsy, the lid didn't slam closed, and it had a super easy mechanism for keeping the lid open. But alas, my beloved trashcan broke. I thought perhaps I could just find the same one again, but in the 8 years since I bought it someone has apparently made the terrible decision to discontinue it. So then I started searching... The options were terrible. Why are so many people ok with their ugly trash bags sticking out?! Is the marketing actually convincing people that having some flimsy wire to hold your trash bag and nothing easy to clean inside to catch potential leaks somehow a benefit?! I was so sad. I spent way more time than I ever imagined searching for a new trashcan. I finally found this one. It looks very nice, it hides the trashbag, it has an internal plastic bin, it doesn't feel flimsy or will be easily knocked over by toddlers or obese cats. I don't love that to hold the lid open you have to snap a little latch in place, and I find it annoying that they made the bin a weird shape/size so you really have to stretch the bag to get it on (or you can buy their own specially designed bags). But it is the best trashcan available right now.

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.

Received in perfect condition. 30 litter holds lots. Need only 20 litter but don't make. Hade a butterfly but found it awkward and let smell out. No smell out with this one. Works we.

Me encanto, es igual que la foto. Creo que si es caro pero vale totalmente la pena, es muy sencillo separar la basura y le queda cualquier bolsa, sino quieres comprar las que requiere el bote, aunque después de utilizarlas son una buena opción. Se ve muy bien en la cocina y quedo perfecto en el espacio que tenia pensado.

Perfect size. Simple pedal design with a soft close lid. Lids locks open for easy emptying. Even comes with free sample bin liners. The two bins are the perfect size compromise for the amount of space it takes up and the volume of trash/recycling it will hold. The best bit is the Simplehuman bin liners. They fit perfectly, they’re strong, and they’re cheap. I ordered refills from the Simplehuman website and they arrived post free for less than I can buy standard liners from the supermarket. The bin itself is beautiful quality. You like German engineering? This is right up there. Good, no, great quality stainless steel outer skin and lid, resists finger marks and wipes clean in an instant. The pedal mechanism is reassuringly robust and it just works. Not many things are teenager proof but they haven’t managed to kill this yet after a year. The base has wheels at the back for easy maneuvering in tight spaces. The lid fits perfectly so no smells creep out overnight to stink out your kitchen. The plastics are kept to a minimum but what is used is super high quality and shows no sign of wear. One wipe with a damp microfiber cloth and it looks brand new again. Very smart design that will look great in even the most high class kitchens. 6 stars all round.

Estaba repasando mis productos comprados y me topé con este que lo llevo usando más de 3 años y puedo decirles que sigue funcionando partes como el pedal de manera perfecta, en verdad estoy muy contento con el basurero. Es algo caro pero es una inversión porque tiene una gran calidad., muchos otras marcas terminan teniendo problemas en el mecanismo de apertura y este después de tres años sigue como el primer día.
