Purchased 2 of these in black for dog and cat food. Just refinished the garage including expensive floor paint and want to keep it looking sharp and tidy. These do the trick and easily hold the entire 14 lb. bag. I have 2 similar, approximately 10 yrs old, that hold squirrel food and meal worms for my ducks, located in an outdoor shed and keep mice and other critters out. Was super happy to find them again.
I loved this trash can when I first got it a couple of weeks ago. However, after the first week the lid will no longer pop up when I push the button and it won’t close all the way. I took a look at the lid and can’t figure out what’s going on with it. It was very expensive from the location I purchased it from and now that it’s used they won’t take it back.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Mtn020, our apologies for inconvenience caused by the broken wastebasket lid. Customer satisfaction and product quality are very important to us. Please contact me directly at marketing@sterilite.com so we can further assist you.
Top is short on the sides so bag is always visible and snap on lid is weak and wore out within a year. Can used in patio room so I’d say opened/closed average of 10 times a week.

Hello Bob27, thank you for reviewing the Sterilite 7.5 G TouchTop Wastebasket. For this wastebasket, make sure you are using the correct size trash liner which is 8 gallons and then you can adjust the bag with how much plastic you prefer showing on the sides. Product quality and customer satisfaction are very important to us, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused by the lid wearing out. Please contact us directly at marketing@sterilite.com
I like a trash can in the bathroom that has a lid yet easy to open. This fits well beside toilet however this is the second can that the latch on lid has broken, no glue will hold it. Wish I could just get a new lid and not have to replace can.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this for my bedroom and it’s the perfect size. One down side is the size J trash bags recommended don’t fit over the top of the can. These bags aren’t cheap so I was just disappointed about that fact. Make a bag to fit this can.
This is the perfect container for the dry kibble we feed our dogs.. We have had one container for at 8 years, and we purchased a second one when we got a second dog (different food, of course!). The trash cans have been durable, are attractive in the laundry room, and the secure lids keep the pups out between meal times. With the use these receive as dog food containers, I am certain they would function really well as trash cans. :-)
I love the easy close lid on this wastebasket. I use it in my garage it keeps my kids out of the trash and my dog from eating out of the trash. Easy open easy close. Just the right size for what I use it for A quick empty of trash from the car or a popsicle we eat on the driveway. Holds a small trash bag so easy to empty and sits in a small space in my garage.
We upgraded our kitchen trash can to your product and believe me it's a great thing to keep odors inside and easy to place in the trash when used with plastic bags and even without, it's east to clean. Wouldn't do without it!
