Best Trash Can (But Dented)
on July 24, 2025
Posted by: Carla R.
I love the soft-close lid and the lack of inner liner, which makes it really easy to clean. However, it did come with a small dent on the side, which seems to be a common problem based on the reviews. I personally don’t care that much because they also throw in a free pack of trash bags and an odorsorb pod, but they really need to work on the padding for the sides. I appreciate that they’re trying to be more eco-friendly, but structured cardboard is not enough to protect these trash cans.

Exactly as described in description of product. I love how the 55L is more spacious than the previous trashcan that I had.

Absolutely love this item

This is a perfect trash can. I ordered the white one because everything is white in my home so it marches perfectly. The bag opens widely so it’s easier to dispose the trash inside. The step is all across and makes it super easy to use. Definitely recommend and also purchased the shredder attachment best combo ever

Very, Very, Nice

This was a 'warranty' replacement from years ago. And you guys replaced our unit without questions. I took the requested pictures and included the original serial number and Voila! You folks shipped a brand-new can. Gosh, it's so, so, nice to have a lid that opens when the foot pedal is pressed. My wife took grief for years after paying so much for our original Simple Human can but . . . my apologies to her and my compliments to you. You've exceeded her expectations and mine. Nice Job!

Worth every penny. Easy, fast and simple to use over and over again and again. I'm actually enjoying changing the trash bag because it's so much easier than my last trash can.
