The lid is a bit heavy; I believe it could be made from lighter material. The lid makes pressing the pedal a bit tough, especially if you walk barefoot around the house. Other than that, I have had it for over a week now, and my family is used to it. Welcome to the fam, simplehuman. 5*
Excellent an innovative. Thankfully, there is a company out here like simple human, who makes beautiful and affordable trash cans that are a step above ordinary! I bought one seven years ago when we moved into our home and this is our second one for our mother-in-law suite.
Our kitchen space for a trash can is limited and the style of this fits perfect. Also so easy to use by stepping on it without using my hands. Love the warranty too.
This trash can was a replacement for one they no longer make. I don't love it. The top always has fingerprints and smudges, and the lid doesn't open a full 90 degrees. Also, to get the lid to stay open at all you have to pull both top pieces back and it's annoying and cumbersome. I would not recommend this trash can to anyone.
