The rundown

The rundown, nice side by side, but the foot peddle will probably break 2 weeks out of the box, held together by plastic rivets, the outside and totes are good though, but in order to get some real longevity out of it, I but two 2 dollar handles from home depot and installed on my own, just dont use the foot peddle, both totes are obviously smaller than the normal 13g can but it's fine the kids just throw the trash away more often, is it worth the value, eh, but after I put the handles on I'm happy now.

13 gallons isn't much for a trash and recycling can. It's difficult to put the trash bags in with the metal handle that let's you pull the cans out. It gets in the way. 13 gallon bags dont fit snug enough.There's also not enough space between the cans and entire receptacle. Very disappointed with my purchase.

Dual trash

I’ve been looking for a dual trash can but didn’t want to spend a fortune. This is exactly what I was looking for in a trash can. Both sides are 8 gallons each and whole enough trash for a family of four. Very durable and easy to clean. The only way to open is with the foot petals.

Attractive and roomy

Very attractive. Very roomy. I love the buckets with handles. At first I thought the two sections seemed small but was very pleased and surprised how much they hold. I use a regular 13 gallon bag on the garbage side and nothing on the recycle side. Easy to carry with the handles to dump.

Regrets - Would not recommend

I've had this can for a couple years and regret the day it ever came into my life. The only pro is that it hasn't broken (but I wish it did as I'd feel less guilty about replacing it.) Each side is only 8 gallons, which in theory sounds great but in actuality is awfully small, especially considering the tiny box shaped opening. Additionally, as other reviews have mentioned there is no actual bottom to this can so your bags must be used (no tossing recyclables and then throwing them into your recycling can.) The silver color looks nice but it is NOT fingerprint resistant at all and quickly looks gross. The worst though has to be how impossible it is to add or remove bags from either side without lifting the entire plastic insert out. I'll be switching back to a nice plain ole 13 gallon regular kitchen trash can shortly.

reply from Step N' Sort

Hi David. I'm not really sure what you mean by "no actual bottom to this can". Our Step N' Sort units come with removable inner bins with handles that allow you to pull out the bins for easy emptying into your blue box or large curbside waste container. We do make custom fit bags specifically designed to fit these bins. They are Step N' Sort Sac item SAC002 and guarantee a perfect fit every time. The unit is not made to be used without the inner bins. Hope this information helps.

Very Happy with My Purchase

I love the trash can it fits perfectly in my home. My only gripe is the can get full qucik and when you take out the bag you still have more room to put trash or recycle items as i also purchased clear recycle bags but I am happy with my purchase and the price point was great compared to amazon so I would recommend and I get a lot of compliments on the dual trash can the rest of my appliances are stainless steel and black so it just coordinates well

Wanted a trashcan that had two sections- one for trash and another for recycling. This one does the trick. Had to order 2 because the lid didn't shut properly on the first one, but the second one works fine. The unit is definitely a bit large compared to a "standard" trashcan but reasonable given the 2 sections. I didn't love the price- a lot to pay for something that holds your trash- but it seems all sectioned trashcans are ridiculously expensive and this one was the best cost we found. Works well and you can use standard trashbags.

Great Product

The product works very well and is very pleasing to look at in the kitchen. I like the inner container that comes out for easy handling. It works best with 10 gallon garbage bags instead of 13 gallon garbage bags, since they are too big for the container. Unfortunely you will have to find the 10 gallon bags somewhere else because Walmart does not carry that size.

I read all the reviews and had high hopes! The color was good and size was perfect. The downfall was how poorly designed the foot petal was. The first step on it, i thought it was going to break. Even more disappointing was the right side lid kept staying up and not closing on it own. Poor quality. Ended up going to TJMaxx and got a high quality one for around $95.

Dents, Dents, and More Dents!

I ordered this online and it arrived dented ALL over. There were no reviews when I purchased it so I knew it was a risky purchase but it was SO much cheaper than the other brands. However, it is definitely not worth the price. Pay the extra money for the better quality brand or go with a cheap plastic can. I was able to return it to my local store with no problems whatsoever!
