Since there is no inner plastic liner has anyone had a problem with leakage? I noted one reviewer who said it was not watertight.

As long as you use a quality 13 gallon bag, there should be no leakage. We've had no problems with leakage.

The top comes off, so we use a trash bag and fold it over the edge before replacing the top. We have not had any problem with messes or leaks. Love the size of this trash can!

No problem with leakage...I mean you will be using a bag in there anyway...

No problems to date, but we don't dump a lot of wet stuff in there.Glad tall kitchen bags fit with a little stretching, or SimpleHuman sells their own (more expensive) bags that fit a little more comfortably.Very happy with this purchase.

It's not watertight, so use a bag. If the bag leaks it will be on the floor. I don't care as it's slim, beautiful, and fits my needs.

I just bought one yesterday at a local retailer and there is no opaque plastic liner inside-- any contents are in direct contact with the metal. Returning it ASAP. Not sure if this is a recent change in the product or what.

There are small gaps between the cover and the bed rails where the cover folds, however I have not had any problems with it leaking but i'm sure with a hard enough rain water could find its way in.

Obviously, it is an issue based on others responses. However, I have purchased 2 of these same bottles and have not had any leakage problems. I did read a review once from an individual who suggested that making sure the back hinge of the cap is lined up with the measurement marks of the bottle, somehow, prevents it from leaking. I always place the cap on in that manner and believe that to be true--as strange as it sounds. See if that works.

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

No, it doesn't leak. It hasn't caused any trouble whatsoever. I like it a lot.

It leaks with the hard liner in it, I'm pretty sure it's going to leak without it. I was not happy with it at all, but that's just me.

No, I have not experienced any leakage. There was one time I had some leakage, but it was because I didn't screw the top on correctly and got it cross threaded. As long as is the lid screwed on properly and snug, there has been no leakage.

No, sounds like something isn't in tight. I've never had a problem with any of mine leaking. Give the company a call

Did it seep through the sides or the main cover? The sides aren't absorbent? If it leaked through the main part I would return it. Ours has never leaked.

I have never had any problems with this. I'm always on the go and toss mine around quote a bit in drawers, bags, every which way, you name it, and have never had any leakage issues.

I have used mine quite often and nothing has leaked. Make sure to snap the lid completely.

I have had no problems with leaking, however I do try to avoid submerging it whenever possible... If it gets rained on when taking videos etc or cleaning it with water no problems yet.

Mine doesn't leak. i guess just like any other 'made in China' products, it's hit or miss.

Well, never had to test it out, but I would say probably not totally leak-proof. The inside lining is a very soft material, as is the outside of the bag.

I have had no problems with leaks... but I have been pretty mindful of keeping it standing upright. Also, I generally only use the containers for dry items - diced canned fruit is probably the 'wettest' food I have had in them. But, no leaks.Sometimes I've noticed it's a little difficult to screw together (30% of the time). You just have to unscrew, start over and align the threading. It certainly isn't an issue that would keep me from ordering again.Love the container - use it almost everyday for our girls lunch and snacks.

No problems here. The lid, if shut fully, does not leak on the one I bought.
