I wish the two compartments were the same size, the trash side is too small and the recycle is huge. Thought about using the larger compartment for trash but the smaller one can barely take a lettuce box and a couple of cans. Ended up selling it to a friend and bought a different one, which I have some thoughts on as well..
I was excited about this can as I have a small kitchen and don’t have enough room for two separate cans. However, the recycle compartment is smaller than I had expected. I tried using the recycle side for my garbage, but the recycle bags are not strong for garbage. With today’s need for more recycling, I wish the compartments were at least of equal size.
Love love love this the dual trash can! I considered getting the larger version (58L I think?) but chose the smaller model instead to fit my 1br apartment. This trash can is great for single people, I don’t think it would be good for a family. The trash side is the smaller, which for just me takes about a week to fill up, in larger trash cans it would take longer and then start to get stinky. When my partner is over and helping me cook it fills up in a few days. I think this trash can would be best for singles or maybe a couple if you switched the trash side to the larger recycler. I love having everything in one can, no more unsightly paper recycling bag on the floor
We love this trash can so much! We live in a 1br and our kitchen has a small eating area that was feeling overwhelmed by our trash/recycling setup. This can has streamlined everything and transformed the space. It is SO tidy and a pleasure to use. And it's so pretty! We tend to it like it's a sports car haha. The design is intuitive and convenient. It's expensive, but if you have the money, it's worth it.
