Best Kitchen Trash Container ever...
924569
This is our 2nd one.  The 1st one survived over 10 years of heavy daily use and the foot peddle finally gave out.  We are still using it in another part of the house, but replaced the kitchen one with this purchase.  Hight quality.  Fits in tight areas.  Looks and cleans up great!  It takes the standard 13 gallon kitchen sized bags you can get at the grocery store, but we use the 13 gallon Glad Flex-Lok because of the snug fit around the rim of the container.  We certainly hope they're still making this model in another 10 years, as we'll be back.
I don't review many items we purchase, but when something stands out as well as this product, I have to speak up...

This is a great trash can. I use it for cat litter for a few reasons -- first, I don't have to touch anything with my hands, the foot pedal works smoothly every time. second, it traps the smell inside the can, it may not be *airtight* but it certainly is darn close. lastly, it's the perfect size for plastic grocery bags, and has little tabs to hold the bags in place. I guess a 4th reason I just thought of now :) is the plastic lining of the can comes out for easy washing! It's a really well thought out trash can...who knew so much could go into a trash can!

Love Simple Human trash cans! Every time I buy one I think to myself "Really? $$$ to throw my trash away?" But these trash cans are so worth it! The lid closes securely every time and I've never had an issue with the foot pedal breaking. It's easy to clean and I love the little switch to keep the lid open (for sweeping, emptying the vacuum cleaner, etc.). Plus, it just looks nice in my kitchen! I love the starter pack of included trash bags (but really all that does is get you addicted to using the Simple Human trash bags...). We recycle so many bottles that I wanted a more convenient place to store them and this trash can is perfect for that!

I have become tired the overflow of the small decorative waste containers I had in my office.  So, what to do.  Well, of course I went to Amazon, my go to store.  This one, United Solutions WB0039 White Twenty Four Quart waste container seemed to be the best choice.  When I arrived, I was extremely impressed with quality and design.  I highly recommend this product.

It is the perfect container for holding garbage.  It fits perfectly under the counter in the pull out trash can holder.  It is made of molded plastic and is the color of snow.  When I first opened my garbage can, I thought to myself, life doesn't get any better than this.  If you have garbage, this is the can you need!  I don't know how I survived with the old one for so long.

I have had this 4 liter countertop compost bin for 8 months now.  It took me several months to finally find a sleek & well designed compost bin to replace the one I had and loved (the swing-top-open lid finally cracked off from the hinges and there was no way to repair it.)  I researched online and shopped every brick-and-mortor store imaginable to find the perfect countertop compost bin. Finally, I found this 4 liter Joseph Joseph compost bin that tucks perfectly under a cabinet on our countertop. (see photos) The dark smoke color goes well with any kitchen interior; the stainless steel handle gives this plastic bin a touch of luxury without being too over the top; the handle easily rotates down out of the way. The hard plastic of the bin is vey good quality and sturdy. You have the OPTION of using a plastic liner with this bin but it is NOT necessary (as some reviewers have indicated ).  I prefer not to use any additional plastic products, especially since I'm composting and trying to lessen my footprint on this earth.  The bin washes out easily; the lid can be removed as can the carbon filter that sits in the lid.  Soap & hot water do a great job cleaning the bin with no residual food waste smell, a quick spray of vinegar every other month after cleaning keeps food waste odors from developing.  The airflow design on this bin is perfect; It takes us about 3 days to fill this bin up, which we then empty into our large composting bin in the backyard. In this timeframe there are never any noticeable food waste smells that permeate, nor any bugs.  There has only been a couple of times during hot & humid summer days where there was a little mold on the food waste and a couple of fruit flies...I just make sure that during the summer months I empty it daily if need be (we don't run a/c all of the time here in New England)  Note: I buy any brand of charcoal filter that I find on sale and cut it to fit. The only design element change I would recommend is for the lid to stay open. It does not stay open and does not rotate all the way down to hang next to the bin. But I've now become accustomed to removing the entire lid when I need to add a bunch of food waste when I'm meal prepping.  Other than that, I am truly happy with this bin and would highly recommend it to others.

This trash can is excellent! It is well made and convenient to use. I bought it to fit behind my kitchen door because when the door is open there is only a narrow space between it and the cupboards. It fits perfectly. I also like that it matches my gray stainless appliances. It looks very neat and classy.

I love this trash can. At first I thought it was a little short compared to other cans I have had in the past but it is exactly right. When changing out a full bag it doesn't fall to the bottom or pull on the plastic ring which would lead to it breaking... Something I had to deal with with some other inferior cans. Works better than expected.

This is great!  I bought it as a replacement for a ceramic container I was using (no lid). This will hold a LOT!  I received it last Saturday, and now it's the following Saturday, and it's full - time to dump the contents into the compost bin outside.  Looks REALLY good sitting on the kitchen counter - absolutely no smell or mess.  Great price, too!

This is the best kitchen garbage can I've ever had.

I ordered it in Feb 2015 and have been happily using it ever since.

PRO

*Space-saving--it's a little over 10" wide

*The lid goes up easily with a foot on the pedal, which after over 2 years, still works just fine.

*The wheels are a great feature

*It holds a lot

*Grey is not exactly a designer color, but if there are any smudges, they don't show up!

*It doesn't need special bags.  Pretty much any bag that says "tall kitchen bag" is fine.  Right now I'm using Goodsense Drawstring Tall Kitchen Bags, 13 gallon.  These fit nicely around the lip of the can and don't need a band to hold it on.

*I don't know why, but it doesn't seem to hold odors.

CON

The only drawback for me is that if it happens to get locked, it's hard for me to unlock.

Love the looks of the trash can. Heavy duty.  Their bags are good but not necessary.  We have been using Hefty garbage bags ... they don't fit custom like simple human trash bags. You can't go wrong with this trash ... love the size; fits well at end of counter.  The opening is a good size.  Can't really see in the trash can unless standing directly over it.  Lid comes off to easily take out bag and install new one.  Lid helps the bag not falling in and lid hides bag that goes over top.  Will definitely buy from simplehuman again!!! Great quality!!!

Originally we had a trash can and a recycle can in the pantry - I bought this to save some space and take the garbage out of the pantry. It worked perfectly!! It looks nice in the kitchen, the lid holds in odors, the dogs are unable to open it, and it is compact enough to save space but not so small that it holds nothing. We were able to hold a week's worth of garbage and recycled products just fine which is our normal routine. I also like that the automation switch is on the outside so that we can turn it off when changing the bag. This makes it much easier than trying to fight the lid opening and closing when changing out the bags. I completely recommend this product!

I love this trash bin. I purchased this after my auto-lift lid trash bin stopped working (twice in a year). This bin, however, is relentless in my household. And easy to clean.

I purchased this after my fancy no-touch sensor trash can quit working after 6 months. This thing is the perfect size for our busy kitchen (holds a lot) but the slim design allows it to stay out of the way. I don't miss the other trash can at all.

I ordered this storage container to help with my meal prep and leftover issues. I'm constantly looking for something to store leftover food in, or to put food into for the next day. I've used the standard plastic containers, but was always losing the lids, and they would stain and wear out quickly. Not to mention that they NEVER dry in the dishwasher!

That's one of the main reasons I ordered the MealPrep container - it's glass! It's a great size (just over 7" - see the photo) and comes with a new but very functional type lid that "snaps" on the top. This made me feel WAY better about having the container sealed. I had often not got the lid on completely and then made a mess. But with this lid it's super simple - click in place and you're ready! The other amazing feature is that it's usable in the oven, the dishwasher, the freezer and the microwave. Talk about useful!! It's airtight and BPA free which is important to any family.

Overall, this is a fantastic storage container that I highly recommend. They also have a 30-Day money back guarantee, so order this and try it - you've got nothing to lose!

We love this trash can.  It fits much more garbage than we thought (it replaces a large, stand alone can that was taking too much room).  Easy to install.  Pulls out very easily - and fits our under-the-sink cabinet perfectly.  Now, we just have to get used to using it in a the new location.  Creatures of habit.

This item is great! I finally found a compost bin that is light weight and easy to clean, yet is very durable and does not dent like a tin pan. Trust me...we take this compost bin to the big compost pile daily by the chicken coop and it is does not have a single mar. This compost container is for anybody looking for an attractive, nice-sized container that can be stored on the counter top next to your sink or under your sink. No refuse "fumes" ever and easy to clean!  I had a white ceramic compost bin that was the worst...heavy and chipping constantly until it looked dreadful. I highly recommend the Epica Stainless Steel Compost Bin. Don't waste your money on other products.
