Features

  • NEAT AND SECURE - Stainless steel liner rim flips up for a quick and easy liner change, then closes over the liner to hold it tightly in place and keep it hidden from sight
  • LINER POCKET - Keep liners where you need them. Dispense them one by one no perforations or unraveling from inside the can for a faster liner change
  • CLEANER STAINLESS STEEL - simplehuman's invisible silver-ion coating resists fingerprints and the spread of germs without dulling the natural sheen and luster of the steel
  • STRONG WIDE STEEL PEDAL - simplehuman's extra-wide steel pedal is engineered to last 150,000 steps that's more than 20 steps a day for 20 years
  • SILENT CLOSE LID - simplehuman's patented lid shox technology controls the motion of the lid for a slow, silent close

Description

simplehuman's stainless steel rectangular step can features an innovative 'liner pocket' that stores and dispenses liners from inside the can for a faster liner change. The stainless steel liner rim grips the liner and keeps it hidden. And with no inner bucket, there's more space for trash. Strong wide steel pedal is designed to last, and the patented lid shox technology ensures a smooth, silent close every time. Code M liner refill packs store perfectly in this can's liner pocket.

    • Very nice steel trash can
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel (with Steel Lid) Size: 45 Liters
This arrived better than expected. It’s the nicest standalone waste bin that I’ve ever used. The bags fit well and are easy to put in. The full bags come out easily. The foot pedal works nicely and the lid is very quiet and effective. It’s attractive as a steel can goes. It has a compartment to hold more bags but after we used the ones that came with it, we just use the standard kitchen size bags from the store. After moving from a home with a hidden can in the cabinet, hubby wasn’t too thrilled that we were going back to a stand-a-lone trash can again. It seems you never have room for them and it’s never in a convenient place when you find room. And they are usually pretty ugly. But we both really like this one. ... show more

    • Best trash can I've owned!
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel (with Steel Lid) Size: 45 Liters
simplhuman definitely makes the nicest trash cans out here. Actually, pretty much everything they make is fantastic! They're expensive, but you get what you pay for. Particularly like this trash can. This trash can is the perfect size for our apartment, with me and my wife. It looks great, does not attract fingerprints, and is easy to wipe off. The opening mechanism works perfectly, is easy to activate since it's the width of the trash can, feels very solid, and has a soft close mechanism in it. When you use the appropriate simple human bags for it, you cannot see the bag at all when it's closed, which makes the whole thing look a lot cleaner. Speaking of the bags, love their trash bags! They're a lot more money than other trash bags you could get from Costco or anywhere else (which would also work with this trash can, if desired). However, it's another case of getting what you pay for. Simplehuman bags come in a dispenser package that slides into the back of this trash can and opens into the inside. When you pull out the used trash bag, there's another one waiting for you right there. They're very heavy duty and you can mash trash down into this thing without worrying that it's going to break (never had a bag break yet). Since they are made to perfectly fit the can, you can get a lot more trash in here than you would otherwise, and go through fewer bags. ... show more

    • I love this trashcan, looks and functions well
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel (with Steel Lid) Size: 55 Liters
I would never admit how much I spent on this trashcan but it was worth it. It looks clean, and actually elegant in my kitchen and the soft close feature is great. It says it has a smudge-free finish but my kids managed to put fingerprints all over but they wipe away easily - and now that you can't just lift the lid, you have to use the foot pedal, my kids don't touch it much. The first one I ordered did not have the soft close, it would fall fast and sometimes do a soft close at the bottom but not all the time. I normally don't like the hassle of returns, but I did return/request a new one and so glad I did. It's very roomy and keeps odors locked in. The Simple Human bags are awesome - big, thick and durable but also super expensive. After using a few I decided to put one of my store bought bags over the Simple Human bag just in case it tears to avoid leaks. So far so good. The store bought bags for 13 gallons fits this 14.5 trashcan, you just have to stretch it slightly at the top to fit over the rim and don't fill it to the max. I may buy a pack of the Simple Human bags eventually but honestly the others work just fine and you only notice when you're putting on and taking off. I feel like I'm saving money and that in itself will pay for the actual trash can. The one con would be that it does slide. The pressure of stepping on the foot pedal causes the trashcan to slide each time and depending on where it's located can be a nuisance. I have it against the side of my island and the counter-top sticks further out so if the trashcan is sitting against the island completely the lid will bang against the island counter top. I just have to pull it away every now and then - but not a huge inconvenience. ... show more

    • Best Kitchen Trash Can Ever
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel (with Steel Lid) Size: 45 Liters
This is my second time ordering this can. The older one is still in perfect condition - I needed an additional one for outside. It is nice and neat - very easy to switch bags. This comes with it's own special bags but you can use the regular 13 gallon bags from the store. There is no bulky inner bin to pull out and replace. It looks great and stays clean. It does not rust. It just makes my everyday life easier. I never thought I's rave about a trash can, but this is the best. ... show more
