I am confused about the lid of this trash can. Is it just open so that you can see/smell all the trash inside of it? Does it have a black flap?

This one does not have a lid. If you want a lid, here is one that is the same capacity - simplehuman Profile Step Trash Can, Stainless Steel, 10 L / 2.6 Gal We use the one without the lid in our upstairs master bath for convenience and the one with the lid in our powder room so it looks nicer but has less use.

Yes. It is always open as depicted in the photo. It is a very small trash can, though. I use it at my office desk for "dry trash" and it works well for such.

There is no lid. I contacted the company after I received the product because I felt their descriptions were misleading. They were not helpful at all and said they couldn't be responsible for mistakes their editorial department makes. They refused to take the product back unless i paid a shipping/handling charge! Eventually i contacted Amazon about the issue and Amazon said for me to keep the trashcan and that they'd get after the company.

The inside basket is black plastic, quite strong. Treat it with some care and it will last a long time. It is easier to clean than a steel one would be. Not that it needs regular cleaning, but an occasional wipe down doesn't hurt. It fits fairly snug inside the steel outer can; it sits on a hard plastic lip inside the can, a lip on the plastic basket slips right into the lip for a good seal so garbage shouldn't fall down inside. The lid is hard black plastic. I don't care for the bags the manufacturer sells, they fit snugly (almost too snug) but I can fill one up in a day, two at the most and I'm the only one that uses it. I use regular plastic garbage bags, and then use a small bungie type cord that I slide down over the plastic bag to hold the extra plastic it in place. Then when I take the garbage out, I have enough room to put all the other garbage from the three small wastebaskets in my apartment, and thus have one bag to carry downstairs. With the manufacturer's bags, if I fill up their bag, there is no room left for anything else.

It opens on the top side, but not on the edge. There is a flap about 3 inches from the edge. Check out the images on the product page.

The can has two liners. One blue for recycling and one black for garbage. You put the bags into the liner so you can pull out the garbage. We also line the black one for garbage but not the blue one.

the door flap is clear plastic. there is a removable brown plastic piece that you use only if you want to block the opening.

No, it is a bin only. An expensive bin lol. The lids are just as expensive. But from my experience, a lid isn't necessary. My bin is located in a built in pull out drawer under the counter and there is zero smell.

It has a flip up panel in lid. Very easy access. The whole top comes off to change bag. Very convenient . Love this can!!

As everyone else has stated, its just the permanent lid with the rectangular open "ring". You will use one of your current plastic receptacles (in theory the last one you will ever need, I've been using the same one since I purchased Perma-Lid). As per the instructions the plastic grocery bag lines the receptacle so that it can be used repeatedly and make the waste easier to remove. I never had too much trouble with the old lids falling out, but everyone is right the Perma-lid solves that problem. Again in theory this saves you from ever having to purchase anymore containers (which aren't cheap either) or at least allow you to use the same receptacle for a very long time.

It is hidden. There is another black can inside that you put bag in. The edges of the bag stay hidden. This is a great garbage can. Very good quality. Ended up buying a pet food storage container from them too.

Yes there are two openings. On the inside there is a ring like plastic thing that holds the bags and has its own cover. This is what reduces the smell because it in effect "seals" the inside. It works really well, too. You do have to follow the directions to get it set up correctly

No, the only way the lids stay open is to step on the foot pedal. I thought that could be a nuisance but it's hands free and I don't actually find a problem with it. It's a great garbage can.

No flap, it is exactly has shown. Very inconvenient for pet, forces the cat to squat low & curve its body to enter. I use it without the lid. I purchased it because of the large size container.

There is no flap, just an opening. Essentially, the lid just sits on top of the litter box with a slight overhang that serves as the entrance. The cat crawls under and into the box. At first I was afraid my cat wouldn't use it because the entrance is hidden, however, he goes right in there and does his business. And my dog can no longer get in the litter. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

The doorway is open, but for an additional charge you can purchase the flimsy flap, it just hooks on to the top. I have one of these and also bought a better version from Amazon for less money Van Ness CP7 Enclosed Cat Pan/Litter Box, Extra Large, for $13.00. I found this is a much better box that includes a swinging door, and is a sturdier construction.

No lid, but it seems to be a standard opening; any typical silicone lid should do. I don't use one because I personally don't care for them, so I'm not certain

We are using this as a dirty clothes hamper so it is opened and closed a lot. The brown is like a black-coffee brown. Definitely not black, but very dark. Hope this helps.
