simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can With Secure Slide Lock, Black Plastic

I recently upgraded my kitchen with the simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Trash Can, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! This trash can has been a game-changer for my kitchen space, both in terms of functionality and aesthetics. First off, the slim design is perfect for my smaller kitchen. It fits seamlessly against the wall without taking up too much space, which is a huge plus for me. I love how it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb; instead, it adds a sleek, modern touch to my kitchen decor. The foot pedal is incredibly responsive and allows for hands-free operation, which is essential when I’m cooking and my hands are full. I also appreciate the silent close feature—no more loud clangs when the lid shuts! It’s such a simple detail, but it makes a big difference in maintaining a peaceful kitchen environment. Another highlight is the inner bucket, which is easy to remove and clean. It’s also designed to fit simplehuman trash bags perfectly, so there’s no slipping or mess when it’s time to take out the trash. I’ve found the bags to be durable and convenient, making the whole process a lot easier. What surprised me the most is how much it can hold. Even though it has a slim profile, I can fit quite a bit of waste in there, which means fewer trips to take out the trash. The 40-liter capacity is just right for my small household without being too bulky. Overall, the simplehuman Slim Kitchen Trash Can has exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s stylish, practical, and incredibly easy to use. If you're looking for a reliable and aesthetically pleasing trash solution for your kitchen, I highly recommend this product! It’s worth every penny!

Truth be told, what I truly desire in the deepest corner of my heart is SimpleHuman's stainless steel butterfly step trash can, but I just could not justify (to my bank account) spending $160 on a trash can. Alas, I went with the plastic slim step-child, and although it lacks the diva flair of the butterfly, it's a sturdy little workhorse that provides maximum capacity in a very slim size. I have a galley kitchen with a narrow floor to ceiling window at one end in lieu of a wall. It provides nice lighting but isn't a good place for the garbage can, so I needed something that can fit under a sink cabinet or sit against the end of the counters and still be narrow enough not to block the entry way too much. This garbage can fits the bill nicely. The stepping mechanism feels sturdy even when the can is empty, with no wobble to it, and the top stays open if you lift it up by hand to 90 degrees, which is nice when I'm dumping scraps off of the counter into the can. The mouth of it is fairly wide and square, so larger items are easily disposed (fits gallon milk containers easily). It shuts slowly and quietly, no splattering, and seals nicely. The wheels make it easy to move it around. Locking feature is a nice touch to deter small children and pets from getting into the trash. I use regular trash liners (Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen 13 Gallon Trash Bag with drawstrings) rather than the SimpleHuman specific ones, and the drawstring part stretches just enough to slip over the lip of the can and the bag fits very snugly around the rim so that you don't get debris accidentally falling outside of the trash bag. I imagine this little workhorse will remain in our kitchen for a long time, even if we move to a bigger place. Unless I win the lottery and can afford the stainless steel butterfly step can.

I have had this trash can before in black, and it lasted about 4 years. It recently broke where the lid is attached after too much pressure was applied on top, so I decided to purchase the same one again, this time in gray. It looks great and fits well in the kitchen. The quality is solid, and it performs its function very well. The 40-liter size is just right for a family of four. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase.

This is a pretty decent trash can! It's a bit on the expensive side, but Simplehuman seems to make really nice stuff that lasts a while. This one is definitely not as good as the 13 gallon semi-round one I have as my regular kitchen trash can, but it works as a recycling can. The metal foot pedal feels nice and sturdy, and the lock function works well. I do have a few gripes with it though. First, standard 13 gallon kitchen bags can only *sort of* work in this can. I assume it's so that you buy their proprietary bags, but absolutely no way am I paying the upcharge for their stupid special trash bags. Second, it tends to scoot around a lot. I keep it up against a wall, and using it with the foot pedal makes it scoot side to side a bit the more you use it. I assume it's because of the wheels on the back, but it's kind of annoying. Last, the lid feels a little flimsy and kinda flops around when you open the can. It seals and works with the slide lock, but it's not the same level of quality I'm used to from my bigger can. Overall, I'd only recommend this can if you need something that fits in a tight space. I was thinking it would work well as a secondary recycling can with the bigger one as my normal trash can, but I honestly should've just spent a bit extra and gotten the nicer one. For slim cans though, this is a pretty good one.

Durable Easy to clean. It is value for the money. Very pleased

Works well. Looks nice. Fits small space that I have on patio.

After a looong time of living with a battered and topless kitchen trash can , this can is miraculous ! Opens with foot panel when your hands are full, Closes virtual silent. Does take the usual 13 gallon trash bag BUT it is a tight fit. The can itself is rectangular, fits perfectly between the pantry and porch door. Black color works well with same color appliances.

Looks just like the picture. Light weight, with a slow close lid. I use regular 13 gallon trash bags, and it works great. It is a bit pricey for a plastic trash can, but it’s the brand that is more expensive. I need a slim design and I wanted to add color.

The item arrived packaged well and on time or early. Assembly was very easy. This is a robust well made bin. No sharp edges or hazards that I can see. The surface texture is nice to the touch and the thickness of the plastic is more than adequate. It has a look and feel of quality. The bin stands very steady even when the edal is activated. I anticipate that it will last for a long time and I would buy it again.

Really amazing build quality and soft lid operation. The size is fairly large so make sure you check the measurements before you order. Check others review on how to easily fit the hinge cover.

分別用に2点購入しました。 大きさや素材感は思っていた通りの品物で満足しています。 難点としては、中にキャスター部分などの凹凸があるので洗いにくそうです。 蓋の取り付けは、かなり固いのですが、思っていたよりも簡単にはまりました。 2点中の1点は、開梱して蓋をビニールから出したところ、蓋の表に縦の線が入っていました。よく見たら裏にも入っていたので、ヒビだと思います。 蓋の入っていたビニール袋もオリジナルのものではなかったのも気になり、1点はそのまま返品し、再度、購入しました。

Great for a narrow spot (this spot is exactly as wide as the garbage can which is why I bought it). I didn't even realize the wheels on the back, so that convenient for moving it around. Would be nice if there were clips to hold the bag down better but it still stays in place. I like it, I'm happy. Oh and the lid can lock, perfect for Snoopy kitties

Caro mas vale muito a pena!
