Fits well in tight spaces (between the toilet and the vanity or next to the dryer). Needs emptied a few times a week in a busy bathroom, but that's fine with me - I don't want to store trash in the bathroom. (Good size for folks who "swish 'n swipe" daily.) I also use one of these in the laundry room for dryer lint & pocket debris. Because of the tapered shape, it's a little tippy - if the trash bag isn't quite all the way open, trash hangs up at the top and the can wants to tip over. Easily solved by making sure the bag is all the way open, pushing trash down, or putting something heavier at the bottom (like the roll of empty bags). Also fits in my dishwasher for easy cleaning/sanitizing.
This wastebasket works great in a small area. It doesn't hold as much as my old round bathroom wastebasket but it still does the trick and fits much better on the back of the toilet (we have dogs that get into the trash if we leave it on the floor). The white color goes with most everything.
This product is fine for use in an office or bathroom, as a small trashcan. I have meddling cats, however, and without a lid this product is too tempting for them. They bat it around and knock everything out of it. But despite their batting it around and knocking it down stairs it has not been damaged so it's a durable little product. I'd prefer something with a lid and in a color other than white, but as a small wastebasket it serves it's purpose just fine.
