Worth the price
on June 13, 2025
Posted by: Katie N.
I honestly wasn’t sure if it would be worth it, but I really love this trash can. It’s so convenient having both compartments right there. My husband has even commented on how nice of a trash can it is. It’s not hard to change the bag. There’s no smell. It looks really nice. I would buy again.

Wow…What a Gorgeous Can
on June 18, 2025
Posted by: Steve K.
Who would think that a trash can would deliver the wow factor but, the 58L Step Recycler has. We needed to replace an old cylinder trash can, did some research, found Simplehuman brand, read reviews and ordered it. No regrets!
It fits beautifully in the kitchen, full length step-bar to easily open the lid or, when changing the bag(s) or lifting out the recycle bucket, the entire collar/lid lifts up manually and stays in the upward position. It’s also a nice feature during cooking when one needs the lid open.
The can came with complimentary trash bags but, I’ll likely use them to line the recycle bucket and continue to use Costco/Kirkland bags as they fit very well but require a little tucking if you want to hide the bag behind the collar. I love soft close lid! No more lid slamming! Plus, minimal foot pressure to lift the lid.
This trash can is like an appliance. Is it expensive? Yes. Is it worth the splurge? Absolutely! The build quality and functionality are apparent. As for longevity, we’ll see how it holds up but, after a week, we love it!
What a nice can!

Excellent addition to our kitchen
on June 22, 2025
Posted by: Walter J.
It’s really great to have both recycle and trash bins in one unit — and done with such elegance! The Simplehuman dual-compartment bin not only looks sleek in the kitchen, but it also makes separating waste so easy and intuitive.
The soft-close lid, fingerprint-proof finish, and smooth pedal mechanism all feel high-quality. The inner liners fit perfectly and make bag changes super convenient. It’s rare to find a product that balances design, functionality, and durability this well.
Highly recommended if you want something that blends in beautifully while keeping your home organized.

A Sophisticated Solution to Daily Chaos: My Simplehuman Two-in-One Trash Can
on June 25, 2025
Posted by: Kiro L.
Investing in a simplehuman trash can has been a game-changer. For nearly a month, this matte black stainless steel model has transformed a mundane necessity into something genuinely delightful. It's not just a trash can; it's an elegant statement of control in the face of daily chaos.
The design is a significant upgrade. Its matte black finish is sleek and modern, actually enhancing my space. Functionality truly shines with the dual compartments, consolidating both trash and recycling into one compact, efficient unit. This has decluttered my home and streamlined my routine effortlessly.
My favorite feature has to be the soft-close lid. It operates with remarkable smoothness and silence, a stark contrast to my old bin. This small detail highlights simplehuman's thoughtful engineering. And I absolutely love the odor pods which help keep my small space clear of bad smells, a must for bachelor like me.
This can has quickly proven itself an indispensable part of my home, a robust upgrade I highly recommend for its style, efficiency, and quiet grace.

Best recycler/trash can yet. Matte black
on June 29, 2025
Posted by: Trevard J.
It is so functional. I recycle a lot so got tired of having a paper bag filled with recycling in kitchen. This holds a lot even though it is shorter than my last trash can. I’m about to start composting lol. Hint hint (need black composter in stock)

Recycle and regular trash in the same can helps us do our part to separate our trash and looks great. Heavy duty.
