Slim Step Can
on October 30, 2026
Posted by: Sue H.
I was pleasantly surprised at the look and function of the Slim Step trash can. It fit exactly in the space I had planned for it, and looks very stylish. The can opens and closes without slamming.
I will certainly recommend this product to family and friends.

Exactly What I Expected
on October 28, 2026

I love the slim design, and it is perfect for my household needs. The trash can really covers up the odors and closes quietly as advertised. As long as I keep it from any damages and dents, I expect it to last for a very long time. So far so good!

Worst Trash Can Ever!
on October 4, 2026
Posted by: Lisa J.
I purchased one in 2020 and thanks to the 10 year warranty I am on my second replacement! These cheaply made cans last an average of 3 years so I know I'll need one more replacement. In the interim I use my 16 year old Simplehuman can that has a solid exterior and a removable plastic inner container with the foot pedal that works beautifully while the cheap, all-in-one nonsense starts to warp after 18 months then comes apart within the next 18 months. Hopefully the newer models on the website are more durable.

I was not happy with
on September 20, 2026
Posted by: Stephen E.
I was not happy with this product. It is a convenient size and looks good but is difficult to change the bags and it does not stay open without stepping on the pedal. I bought a simplehuman 40 Liter trash can (old style) instead.

Sleek and minimalist! Does exactly what it’s meant to and the pods are a great added touch.
