What size bag do you use with this can since the standard size bag is 13 gallons, and this can is 16?

The 13 gallon flex bag work great, I just make sure the bag is hooked around the sides and the bag stretches to the can as it fills.

I use standard tall kitchen bags. The bags are a little small for the can and need to be stretched a bit to fit the top. Use good quality bags and you shouldn't have any trouble. I haven't had any. You can also use standard green lawn and leaf bags, but I didn't like all the excess bag in the bottom of the can.

I use 30 gallon trash bags. I fold the bag over the edge and put the lid over the folded edges. It works great and holds a lot!

I use Glad Brand standard size 13 gallon bags. Never had a problem with torn bags in the 6 months that I have owned this product. I have a family of 4, with 2 teenagers, and kitchen trash piles up very quickly. You would also get your money's worth on your trash bags. With the 13 gallon bags, even though it does not reach the bottom of the can fully, it works very well. The trash bags open up nicely to accomodate all your kitchen trash. The top lid also swings on the underside and can be removed by pressing the button on each sides, for trash disposal if you are having a busy cooking day, and does not want to be bothered by the swinging lid. If this is a product that you are looking for and match your kitchen, I don't think you will regret it. Hope this helped. Good luck!

I use Costco's 13 gallon bags. They fit really good and stays in place. Cheers

Simplehuman offers great trash bags also. I wish they would show that info. in the ads. You can find 16 gallon bags in a lot of stores and on the internet. Good Luck.

We use a regular kitchen bag, 13 gallon, you will never be able to fill the bags, but they fit just fine and do not show if you put the bag in as directed.

We use "normal" 13-gallon bags from Costco, and even though they're a little baggy/long at the bottom, it's cheaper than buying the matching brand. I've never tried the 8-gallon but it's worth a shot.

I use Glad 13 gallon bags and they stay in place very well. I am very happy with this trash can after several months of use.

I agree with ARW, it probably would fit a 13 gallon pail okay, but I am also using a 7 gallon pail and just pull the excess up over the sides. (I don't fill even that up before I have a good load of diapers to wash...) The elastic is good and would accommodate many different shaped cans, I imagine.

We don't use bags on ours. We just pop the bins out and take them out. However, you could use 13 gallon trash bags (will be too tall) or you could cut paper grocery bags to fit. Plastic grocery bags will be small but work too.

I use 13 gallon bags but due to the smaller size of these cans they really only get about halfway to two-thirds full.

I'm using the bags I had left over for the typical 13 gallon trash can and they work fine. Once I run out of those I'll probably downsize.

Yes, we use the standard, tall 13 gallon bags - I think the brand is Glad - purchased at the local grocery store, probably a generic would work too - fits perfect for us.

They have their own custom bags which are the best fit. You can use a 13 gallon or higher though.

We actually use this 3 can step & sort only for compost & the 13 gallon food waste bags fit perfectly. I do not know anything about the simplehuman custom bags, but 13 gallon is the right size. You will definately want to get the big rubber bands made specifically to hold the garbage bags "up" or they will fall in no matter what size bag you use. We also have the 2 can step & sort for regular garbage & the "tall kitchen" garbage bags (13 gal) also fits that one. Hope this helps you.

It should hold a 15 gallon trash bag ok. I don't know the measurements, but it's about slightly smaller than the size of the bottom half of a 30 gallon trash can, so 10-15 gallons size.

The liner would likely fit a 13 gallon bin. That's a lot of diapers. I use a 7 gallon pail. The excess liner simply bunches at the bottom.

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.

You use a 3 gallon size compostable bag. 16.9" x 17.7" is the measurements of the bag I'm using.
