Nice little bin
Really nice looking trash bin. Finish is excellent, looks good for a bathroom bin. It takes regular grocery bags as liners, with a nice inner plastic bin to prevent leakage. The slow close is nice, and works exactly as expected, but it does open fast, and can clang against the wall or anything else close to it like a gong... but something to be careful with.

Hi sdgiant. Thank you for the review. You're right, it does has a powerful step open: very little hesitation! Certainly worth noting lest it take one by surprise.

Very stylish!
This is no doubt one of the nicest trash bins I've had. The stainless steel finish is perfect, and is covered in a high-gloss protective coating which is resistant to fingerprints. Yes, they do still get on there if your hands are dirty, but it's easy to wipe off with any cloth. The shape is perfect for placing in a corner and keeping it out of the way. The lid is a soft-close system meaning it's really quiet (ideal for sleeping persons). The only joint in the metal is in the back and there is a grab handle there as well. For those wondering, bags are easy to change out, and take type A. The product is backed by a 3 year warranty in case it breaks on you, which was really nice of the manufacturer to do. Yes, it's made in china, but so are a lot of things. There is a sticker on the front that I thought would be hard to pull off, but it does come off quite easily if you pull slowly.

Placement can be key
This bin is very attractive looking for the value and the soft close top is absolutely great. The minor irritation for me is that you have to give it a few inches of clearance from the wall in order for it to operate without the top hitting the wall. Placing it in a corner was no better. Other than that, fingerprints don't show on the finish and changing out the bag is very easy.

Nice Bathroom Addition
Tired of seeing an " open" waste basket in the restroom this can appeared to be the answer. The size is perfect for even a small bathroom. I love the step open and the soft close that makes it easy to use, but also hides away unsightly garbage. It is very easy to add and replace the liner as needed. The stainless finish is in style making it a nice addition to the bathroom decor.

Nice quality trash bin
This stainless steel trash bin is very nicely styled with it's curved shaped. The flat back also lets it fit up to the wall snuggly. I am happy with it as our bathroom trash bin, fitting well in a small space. When I step on the pedal to open the lid it has a nice wide opening, the can does not scoot, and the lid closes without a sound on foot pedal release. The inner bucket for use without trash bags removes easily and has hole designed at the back to allow for trash can liner placement if desired. You can buy trash can bags or grocery store plastic bags will also work.

Hi AcherAway. Thanks for the review! It's great to hear what it is that you like about the bin. Not scooting is surprisingly important, now that I think about it.

Perfect small size trash container for use under my home office desk
I have been avoiding using a trash container under my home office desk as the desk is open at the bottom and the container can be seen both in the kitchen and living room. This trash container is the perfect one for my use as it has a closed top and looks great sitting under my desk. The can opens with a light step and then it closes slowly afterward. While it appears that you can use it without a plastic bag inside, I have chosen to use one. I was able to use both the plastic bags that I get my groceries bagged in (love to recycle these for more uses rather than simply add to a landfill) and I was able to use the 10 clear, thin plastic trash bags that I get from a big box store. While the 10 gallon is overkill, I like that I can use this size as I buy them to store my worked puzzles in (with a twist tie) and the box I bought had more than I can use in a lifetime of puzzle working. The trash container is very sleek. It is 1.5 gallons and is oval cylinder shaped with black accents. The stainless look is fingerprint resistant. The open mechanism is operated by book rather than battery. All in all, it is a great small trash can that looks good as well.

Nice Size for Guest Bathroom
This 1.5 gal trash can by Household Essentials is the perfect size for my guest bathroom. I like the hands-free feature as I only need to step on the pedal at the base and it opens. Then it automatically closes slowly and quietly. There is a hole in the back of the removable liner that holds a plastic grocery bag up and in place or you can buy Type A bags as it suggests. I just happen to have a lot of grocery bags. It doesn't take up much room because it's only 9.06" × 9.25" around and the back is flat so it fits close to the wall. It is very stylish with the stainless steel finish, is very well made and looks great in my guest bathroom.

Step-Bin Trash Can
This is a very small stainless steel garbage or trash can, that opens by stepping on a lever at the bottom of the can, then closes by itself very slowly and quietly. It claims to be fingerprint resistant and fingerprints look transparent in addition to being very easily wiped off with a dry paper towel. It uses type A, 1.59 gallon size plastic bags, and has a 3-year warranty. This step-bin is very suitable for a small office or space.
