Great quality ,easy to use and very attractive. This trash can is functional great .

Amazing can! It’s ridiculous how excited people get about trash cans now and how willing we are - myself included - to shell out over $100 just to throw out what we don’t want! Yet, we do and we are :)My wife and I LOVE this trash can. The rectangular shape with curved edges around the top lip of the can REALLY adds a lot more room than our previous Simple Human can, without adding much extra floor space in our kitchen at all. In fact, it added maybe a little over 2” in width, and less than 1” in depth from our previous 40L can. Again though, amazingly, these slight differences do make up for the extra 5L we get in this can.I love the fact there is a “double-lid,” the top of which is used to clamp on top of the rim of the garbage can opening after you place the trash bag inside the bin. I LOVE this feature and it keeps the bag always nice and neatly aligned without snagging, getting a side pulled down inside of itself accidentally, etc.The trash bag compartment accessible both on the backside and interior of the can to pull a new bag is icing on the cake and makes changing out trash bags WAY easier. This process in our old Simple Human used to be much more difficult and messy at time. And even when full, I don’t get the horrible air vacuum suction effect when trying to pull the bag up and get it out of the can. This would happen frequently with my old can and it became a pain in the butt and took a lot of strength to pull a full bag out. Not so with this one!No motion-activated lid which I actually like a lot. Motion sensors often break after a whole, then you have a half-working can. So J like this is purely manual. AND kudos to Simple Human realizing a matte finish lid is much better than a stainless steel lid which always shows fingerprints and yucky stuff constantly. Love the matte gray on this so it hides imperfections and doesn’t stain with fingerprints. A+!Last thing is, though the step to open is on the front perimeter of the can, my wife and I set this up so that the top lid faces sideways. The only place we could fit this was on the left of our kitchen island. And even stepping on this from the side I don’t feel any difference nor encumbrance doing so. Works great.All in all, five stars. Couldn’t be happier. So weird I’m rating a trash can but it’s great!

I hesitated buying this trashcan because it’s a 45 L. Our previous trashcan was the earlier model from Simple Human, which was a 50 L. I liked that one a lot. I was also worried about whether I could still use glad forceflex kitchen trash bags. They were a tight squeeze on our old trashcan, but I just felt like that held them on better.We have been using this trashcan for a couple of months now, and I love it! The 13 gallon kitchen trash bags fit perfectly. I’m still using the glad force flex. They are not a tight squeeze so they’re easier to get on and off. At first I was worried that they wouldn’t hold on as well, but they are very secure. This is an huge improvement on the old trashcan. I look back now, and realize how much we struggled to get those tightly fitted bags onto the liner compared to now.Because there is no liner, like with the old trashcan, taking out the trash and replacing the bag is a more streamlined process. The trashcan also is visibly smaller, which I like. Presumably because it’s 5 L smaller (a difference I have not noticed), and because there is no liner (that plastic bin that goes inside the trashcan that I had to remove from the can each time I wanted to change out the bag).I was worried that the size difference would be a problem because we generate a lot of trash with five people in our household and frequent guests. But I find we are filling the trashcan at the same rate as before.Aesthetically, the trashcan is also a winner. Every family member commented on it. They were all impressed with the look.I’m extremely happy with this trashcan. If you are on the fence, I would definitely recommend getting it.

I don't love the idea of spending over a hundred dollars on a trashcan, however. I have purchased simplehuman products in the past for my home and business. They have all been great quality, sturdy, holds up to wear and tear and look sleek and nice. I needed a new trashcan for my shop (I own a spa boutique) in the treatment room. I had been using a different brand (I don't remember brand name) that was hands free. I never really liked it and it was not a fast acting sensor and eventually the lid quit working even after changing the battery. I just delt with it for the last few years. I finally grew tired of it and decided to make the investment into a much better quality trashcan that used a foot pedal, is sleek, not bulky and had a soft closing lid. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend it. It is well worth the investment for something that will be used for years and in my case heavy daily use.

It’s clean and nice looking. It doesn’t get full of finger prints like my old stainless steel one did. It closes well and the bags fit well, too. I was a little annoyed that you have to purchase specific bags but you can just order those on Amazon too. I bought it on sale so the price wasn’t so high. It opens easily and that makes me happy!
