Can this be easily opened from the top (without having to use the step button)? Also, what color looks best?

Yes, the lock slides easily and you can just lift the top. It's how I always use it. It's fairly high so it's easy to access from a wheelchair. For kitchen and bath areas the white looks very sleek and unobstrusive. I have the black one in the family room and the office and it blends in easily into the decor, doesn't scream out garbage can.

You can open it up relatively easy with one hand and close it with one hand as well. Very easy to do but be carefully when you close it with one hand or you could hurt yourself.

Yes you have to step on the pedal to open it. I purchased it because I have a dog that I don't want getting into the trash. Works just fine and it looks nice.

You can open it on the bottom by unscrewing a few screws if you don't want to use compressed air, btw.

It is on the top wire part. You have pull out and up at the same time to open - tricky but fine.

you can definitely open it using just one hand, however it's not as simple as lifting a lever or pulling on a latch it's a two step process, you must to press the button with your thumb and then pull.

I don't have mine open now, but recall that the secret was to remove more screws and wires, which I think allowed separating the desired section. I initially tried what looked like the easy way with just a few screws, but the opening was not large enough to take it out that way, because protruding parts prevented mine from sliding out. If that's not clear enough, I can open mine again to refresh my memory.

It is easy access with the pull out shelves, but you will have to open the door fully to have the shelves be able to pull out entirely. Same as one of the previous review mentioned. The shelves are on tracks.

There is a switch at the top marked open/close. Push on the side marked open to open it. When it is opened it will stick up on the other side higher than when it is closed.

Yes, it is very easy to open and close with only one hand. Just pull up and turn to open, will latch itself when you swing it closed.

This is more like Burlap color and gray. And yes, you can remove it from the side. It has two bars on each side that sits on a slot to hold it. So you can pop it up and and slide it out through the side. You might need a little bit of clearance on the shelf above to pop it out.

Hi! If you look really close to the front you will see a really small button like hole. The button blends in with the color. You have to use a the tip of a ball point pin to push it in. Hold the button in for a few seconds than release, then push it in again and hold in, then at the same time press the square button, then the door will open. I hope this helps. Have a wonderfully bless day,Georgia

If you mean open the lid, then yes, it is easy to open. But because of the design, it takes a slightly different pull on the lid. Instead of just lifting the lid straight up, I find it easier to lift at a slight angle.

Hi. Just simply push all the way in. You will hear a click. Not too tricky at all.

I just leave the top I open when I scan books, and it works fine. You can save a default with your preferences, so I'd guess you can set it to economy (grayscale). I've never tried though. I usually use color.

There is a tiny slit on the top that you just pry open. No high tec opening. Just pull from that slit and the back will come off. I use my fingernail to get in it. Hope this helps
