We needed a slim trash can for the space. I also wanted something that looks nice since it is not hidden. The soft close lid and the way it hides the trash bag while securing it are the best features. It is a high quality piece.
I purchased this trash can to replace my other simplehuman one that stopped working after 8 years. The foot pedal is really smooth and effortless and the overall quality is outstanding. Already very happy with my purchase!
