How do you keep trash bags from falling in?

I don't have that problem. There is the right amount of tension to keep it up.

I use 13 gallon Walmart (Great Value) brand and I don't have an issue. I could see it possibly being a problem if you overstuff it, but that would be an issue with any trash can. I fill mine to the top and empty it right away before the kids have a chance to overflow it ;)

A 13 gallon bag will fit snugly. You actually have to tug on it to get it to tuck around the edges. It'll fit nicely. The lid just closes over it. Just be sure not to overstuff it, otherwise the bag'll fall in.

I haven't had this problem. We use the standard kitchen bags, Kirkland bag. I usually put something in them to weigh it down and remove the air pocket as I put it in, but it's super snug and we fill it up to the brim!

I don't seem to have a problem with it, using the Kirkland trash bags from Costco. You could always put something at the bottom to take up space and support the bag, like an empty plastic gallon of milk container.

I've had this trash can for months and I have never had a problem with the bags falling in. They hook around the outside perfectly. I love this trash can best purchase I've made!

The 13 gal bag fits just right around the rim of the can. It allows you to fill the whole bag and not just a small portion like my old wooden can that was shaped in a square. I couldn't say enough good things about this trash can. We love the convenience and design shape, color, the foot peddle to open it, and the price.

All I do is stretch the bag over the sides and front of the can and a litlle over the back

Not sure what was recommended for this product but I buy 13 gallon trash bags and they fit nicely. I dump the trash every other day and I've never had a problem.

I use an inexpensive, round opening, black one. Look for one that has a notch (usually near the handle) to help crimp the edge of leaf bag in place. To keep it from tipping over as I work, I put a couple of rocks in the bottom. However, I think one on wheels would be ideal, and I'm looking into something of that sort for the future.

Probably but I save $$ by just using the plastic shopping bags given by the supermarkets and by not purchasing garbage bags at all. Any plastic bag with side handles will work as you fold the bag over the top and the side handles hook around the structure to keep it in place. We love ours as we have a trash chute in our bldg where we need to keep our bags of waste to a minimum- and the contraption conceals nicely under our sink cabinet. Highly recommended!!

Any tall kitchen bag will work! I usually get bags with the drawstring handles & tighten around the inner removable can to keep it in place. Love this trash can, purchased a second for my recycling, too.

Small trash bins would work or a trash bags but don't know how it can hold.

I've had this product for a couple of years and I haven't found anyway to secure it to a trashcan.

I use the kitchen trash bags from Costco and they work well. They did show around the rim but I didn't have time to fiddle with it while I was there to see if that could be overcome. It's in a vacation cabin.

I would think so. The bags are held securely inside and won't fall out. We used screws and hung ours vertically. Tried the adhesive but screws worked better. I really like it. It's not flimsy and I use it several times a day.

They weigh less than a pound before they are activated so we suggest that you activate them with water first so that they do not blow away. Just take a garden hose or a few cups of water and pour it over the bags to activate. Do not place anything on top of them.

We use brown paper trash bags that we receive from the supermarket. Gives us a big opening and plenty of room. We simply roll close the bag and place in the trash container. Limited smell and the bags are free!!

I have used a rubber band and wrapped with aluminum foil. The tops definitely arent secure enough!

We used any kind of trash bags. Big black ones that you can buy at any dollar stores or Glad garbage bags. Hope this helps you.

I just use plastic bags from the supermarket. A little trickier - because they don't fit exactly. But they do the job, and I get to recycle all those bags!

Unfortunately, I'm in the same situation. First time I bought these they had the two corners. Now with the bunched bottom, you have much less space, and the sides of the bag fall into the garbage bin when you throw something away. Really irritating.

I use shopping bags. You can see them around the edges when the lid is closed, but I don't mind. Works for me.

I never tried them with regular bags, but I'm sure you could tuck them in around the rim. The regular kitchen trash bags might also be a little too big, but I imagine they are better priced.

I'm not sure if there are specific bags. I use a large trash bag for the bin that holds the cans and bottles to keep from getting sticky.
