I bought this kitchen trash can to replace a Home Depot trash can that had a sensor activated lid. The motor stopped working so I decided to find a replacement that wasn’t too expensive yet looked nice. I have small SimpleHuman trash cans throughout my house so I researched what they offered first. Unfortunately what I found for a reasonable price wasn’t stainless steel. Their other cans didn’t use standard 13 gallon kitchen trash bags which my wife buys in bulk from Costco. I compared the Amazon trash can to this trashcan. I decided to try this one because I liked the way it looked and because it was slightly less expensive.
I received the trash can but I found that the lid didn’t seat properly when closed. I discovered that the hinge attaching the lid to the can was slightly off-center causing the lid to not close completely. I really liked the way the can looked so I requested a return which was promptly approved. I immediately reordered another hoping that the next one would be fine and it was.
I’ve had this trash can for more than a month. I decided to write a review because I’m very pleased with it. I like that it comes with a plastic insert. My previous trash can didn’t have an insert. The insert is very sturdy. Standard 13 gallon kitchen trash bags fit perfectly inside the insert. I use trash bags from Costco with a strap at the top of the bag. I simply fold the top of the bag over the outside of the insert (just like my other SimpleHuman trash cans). Then I slide the insert back into the stainless steel trash can shell. I make sure to tuck the trash bag away from the hinge mechanism otherwise the bag may prevent the lid from closing completely. To empty the trash I lift the lid with my hand instead of using the foot pad. Doing this allows the lid to stand straight up without falling back down allowing me to grab the insert and put it out with the trash bag still inside. I walk the insert with the bag inside from the kitchen in the back of my house to my front door. I no longer have the problem of a punctured bag making a mess on the floors like I had with my old trash can that didn’t have an insert. With the lid still remaining open I easily slide the insert back into place with a new bag.
The foot pad works great for opening and closing the lid for normal use. The only issue I’ve had is that when the trash can is empty pressing down on the foot pad may end up pushing the trash can backwards. I try to keep the trash can about an inch away from the wall because when the can is complete up against the wall the lid is restricted from opening completely. This isn’t a big deal because the lid opens enough even in this situation. It doesn’t take much trash being added before the trash can stays in place. At first I considered adding some extra rubber feet to keep the can in place but it’s really such a minor issue that I don’t think it’s worth doing. A rubber floor mat would be another option but why bother.
I really like the size and the shape of this trash can. My previous trash can was ‘D’ shaped which prevented the space in trash bags from being optimally utilized. This trash can takes full advantage of the space in the trash bags. The trash bags fit snugly within the insert taking advantage of the full capacity of the bags. The height is also perfect. The bottom of the trash bags touch the bottom of the insert - no wasted space and no pulling on the top of the bag as trash fills the bag. When I remove the full trash bags they fit nicely into my rectangular 32 gallon outside garbage can.

Buy it
I love this trash can so much lol. Most of my kitchen appliances are red and it adds such a nice touch. It’s just so pretty. I can’t speak on it’s durability as I’ve only had it a few days now however it looks just like the picture and it’s very nice. It is mostly silent closing as it says in the description. Just sleek!
