Missing the blue insert which made taking heavy bags out it less difficult. Two bags have ripped while removing the garbage bag once full. The free air freshener is a waste of time. Doesn’t smell like anything Pretty disappointed to be honest. Previous one of 4-5 years pins broke so wouldn’t open.
We got the black one, & it’s so sleek and pretty. It holds a ton, & it’s so easy to change the bags. The bag pocket is super handy, & it all feels sturdy & well-made. Beautiful and functional trash can with no disappointments!
I absolutely love this step can! I’ve had this same size (45L) for almost 10 years and just upgraded to the matte black version — the finish is phenomenal. I was a little worried it might get dirty easily, but that hasn’t been an issue at all. The matte black looks stunning against my white walls — bold and modern. Functionality is top-notch, as always. The step mechanism has never failed me, and the built-in liner pocket is genius. I’m also a big fan of the new odor control tabs in the lid. Highly recommend — both stylish and super practical!
This step can is solidly built. It matches the other stainless steel appliances in our kitchen. There are no fingerprints visible. I wish that my refrigerator had the same finish.
