Why not make it scratch resistant and able to change order of bins?

For the price of this product, it feels like it is not made for actual use. It’s flashy, but got scratched as we removed it from box. Also would love to be able to switch the recycling to the other side, but there’s no option to.

This is a replacement so the review is roe the service. We already loved our can, very reliable, good looking and convenient. When we had to replace it the company went above and beyond to take care of us. Service was quick and without a glitch. I would have recommended your product anyway, but the service went above and beyond and sealed the deal.

I love it. Just wish it had a weighted bottom so it would stay in place

Great size, nice looking and smooth, quite open and close. I wish the plastic liners weren’t so expensive.

Really Good, Just Not Great.

I was waiting months for the restock of this gold recycler, and while I still love it better than anything else on the market - I do have some critiques of areas of improvement. (AND A TON OF GREAT THINGS TO SAY TOO)
1. The step to open the flap seems a lot lower quality than my prior simplehuman trash can’s.
2. The above prior trash can was also gold, but a warmer gold. If you are expecting that shade of gold in person when it comes in, it’s not the same. It’s still very pretty but a much softer muted gold. Which I actually quite like now after living with it for a few days, just wasnt expecting that drastic of a difference in shades to where they needed to be separated further (which worked for having on opposing ends of kitchen and dining area).
3. This may just be my ignorance, so will fully own that if so, but for the recycling portion I wish simplehuman made a recycling bag that fit in that compartment too. Because I live in an apartment and all recycling must be bagged; which must be one that’s approved for recycling purposes. So to have one of your bags work the same way for that purpose would be handy!
4. This trash can is GREAT for a single person or couple - but is a tad small for people with families and kids. I am single with a dog and cat and probably go through a bag every few days.

Overall it is the nicest looking trash can I’ve ever seen in someone’s home - and I thankfully have it! I wish they eventually release a sensor version because that and the step lever quality are my only 2 real notes amongst everything. Would highly recommend this trash can or any simplehuman one to anyone out there.
