  • Finally a Winner!
Color: Black Stainless Steel
I can’t tell you how relieved I am for this trash can to have worked out! I had to return two others before this and I’m still so in love with it! We needed a 13 gallon step trash can. I wanted pretty much any color but white and it didn’t *have* to be stainless, though I quickly discovered there aren’t many “nice” looking plastic ones. We were replacing a simplehuman plastic step can because the step broke. I considered trying the new motion sensor cans but in the end wasn’t confident enough in the longevity of them (and/or didn’t want to spend a fortune). The first trash can we tried was the simplehuman 50 Liter / 13.2 Gallon Kitchen Step Garbage Can, Brushed Stainless Steel. It was nice, but it made us realize we need a flat top for putting things down like my husband’s work cooler when filling/emptying it. Aside from that we got a defective one - the lid wouldn’t close completely and therefore odors escaped. The next can we tried was the Glad GLD-74506 Stainless Steel Step Trash Can with Clorox Odor Protection. This had what looked like a flat plastic lid; it was plastic… but not completely flat. I also should’ve double checked the dimensions - it was shocking how short it was. lol We still gave it a shot…but after two weeks the lid stopped closing. Then I found this one. I was slightly hesitant to purchase it since some people complained about damage but I was so sick of researching trash cans by that point it was worth a shot! Our small rubber pad under the step came off somewhat immediately as well, but I’m okay with gluing that. It’s been working wonderfully and looks amazing. I ended up putting a small piece of decorative shelf liner on top to protect the stainless from scratches from hub’s cooler etc. It closes quietly and completely, keeping all odors where they should be. Removing the inner liner to replace the trash bags is simple and easy. Our regular 13gal. trash bags fit perfectly, and despite not having excess to put in the hole provided the bag stays put and hidden. Overall this trash can was worth every penny! I hope it holds up for years to come but I’ll be sure to update if it doesn’t! ... show more

  • Well designed
Color: Stainless Steel
Yeah, it’s pricey, but everyone that see’s it can’t believe how much better it is than theirs. Some have already thrown their trash can out. Our still works fantastic and it doesn't bang the wall when you step on pedal. Bags fit and hold well. Plus, it looks great and it a garbage can. Lol

  • Elegant and Efficient
Color: White Stainless Steel
The media could not be loaded. I purchased the white stainless steel trashcan, and it has quickly become one of my favorite additions to my home. The soft-close feature is a game-changer, and the sleek design adds a touch of elegance to my living space. The soft-close lid is not only practical but also a relief for my ears. No more annoying loud bangs when closing the trashcan! The lid glides smoothly and silently, making it a joy to use, especially during late-night disposal. The white stainless steel finish perfectly complements my home decor. It adds a modern and stylish touch to my kitchen, seamlessly blending with the rest of my appliances. I appreciate how it effortlessly enhances the overall aesthetics of my living space. The construction of this trashcan is top-notch. The stainless steel material is not only durable but also easy to clean, which is a huge plus in a busy household like mine. The generous size of the can allows me to hold a significant amount of trash without overflowing. Moreover, the design of the trashcan makes it easy to change the trash bags. The bag stays neatly hidden, ensuring a clean and tidy appearance from the outside. It's these small details that showcase the thoughtfulness in the product's design. The white stainless steel trashcan is a perfect fit for my home. Its soft-close feature, sleek design, and durable build make it an ideal choice for anyone seeking a stylish and efficient solution for their waste disposal needs. I absolutely love it, and it has earned a well-deserved five-star rating ... show more

  • Better check - they come with dents. For this price there should be non
Color: Black Stainless Steel
You may have to return one or two before you get an undented one. The first one had dents in 3 corners. No damage to the box though, so someone took a returned item and tried to push it off on me. The second one, a replacement, was much better, although I noticed a small dent in one corner at the bottom, but it was much less noticeable, and I was tired of returning trash cans. Again, no damage to the box, so someone probably had returned that one too, but they succeeded because I went ahead and kept it. Aside from the dent, the finish is very nice and the color (black stainless) does match the appliances pretty well. Dinged 1 star for the ding in the lower corner of the replacement trash can. ... show more

  • Not worth the higher price
Color: White Stainless Steel
Nice trash can but I paid $119 for it in 2024 and now it is $190. It is NOT worth the higher price.
