Awesome.

This trash can allows us to have our trash and recycling in one area. It doesn't take up that much room but the size is perfect for what we purchased it for. Trash in one side, recycling in the other. The stainless steel exterior allows for easy clean up on the outside and the bins within the trash can make it easy to clean them, if necessary. Works great.

Seems Cheaply Made

I don't expect this trash can to last long. The pedals are not particularly responsive (you have to press hard to get it to open). A piece of bent wire is used to open the lid. Each to you press on the pedal, you are stressing this bent wire. I expect it to break within a year. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Came damaged

This can came with the sides dented and with a cracked lid. Because it was packaged so poorly and it was obvious why it came damaged, we chose not to chance reordering it. Sadly, it was exactly what we needed. It came quickly and was easily returned to a local store.

Exactly what I was hoping it would be!

I bought a Simple Human dual trash can, took it home, and realized I really didnt like that it had one lid for both bins and no liner in the garbage side. Every time youd throw recycle away you also have to open the trash side. I returned it within the same day and when researching other dual trash cans, I found this one. I ordered it, it came in perfect condition and I love it! It has bins for both sides, separate pedals and lids and it looks great. It has silicone no slip surface on the bottom so it also doesn't migrate across the floor. The size is great and seems even a bit bigger than the other dual cans Ive looked at. This is going down as one of my favorite purchases ever. It also helps that iss about $80-$100 cheaper than the simple human can. I highly recommend this.

Great for small home!

Live in a very small space where it was difficult to find space saving garbage and recycling containers. Saw this and was surprised to see the low price compared to others similar. Looks good, functions well. Cannot attest to durability since we've only had it for a few weeks but so far very happy- have zero complaints.

It is a little hard in getting the bags in that they don't hange over but I can make do. Since we have to recycle and I don't have any other way of separating my trash it meets my needs. It does look a little big in my kitchen where I have to put it but again it beats what I was using before.

I really like this dual trash/recycle bins. It is very nice to have them located in the same place. That being said the bins inside are quite small. The description says that a 10 or 13 gallon bag will fit them. I have 13 gallon bags and they are quite large on the bins. I have looked for 10 gallon bags and have yet to find any....the bins are good just need to be a little bigger. I use to empty my old trash can twice a week and now it's every other day because the bins are small.

Great Solution to all those Cans/Glasses

We are required to separate glass from everything else. What a pain - but this Bin is a solution that looks very nice. Everything we had on our back porch looked like it belonged in a factory. This is a beautiful bin. One thing I don't like but not a big deal is that the only way to open the top is by stepping on the pedal. Just Saying. Glad I bought it.

Very Nice Dual Trash

We ordered this trash can recently as the lid broke on our other step-lid can. What attracted me to this one was that it had a section for garbage and a section for recycling in the same unit. We ordered the stainless steel unit. What I like about it is that the bins themselves have a metal hanger you can use to remove the bin completely if needed. That is helpful for cleaning, or if the bag tears. I also like that it came with enclosed color-coding stickers so you can apply a color to each side to help guests figure out which side is for what. I use the blue for regular trash and green for recycling. The only thing I’ll have to get used to is that both bins are the same size equally. I am using a 13 gallon bag in each bin but I would venture to say each side holds maybe 8-10 gallons. They are equal in size. Which, that is fine— but I am used to my 13 gallon trash can, and my recycling bin is typically about 5 gallons. So, that is just something I will have to get used to— having the same size for both trash and recycling. But overall this is a very nice unit. It is well-constructed and feels sturdy. It looks very nice in my kitchen. I would buy again.

Broken pieces

I was optimistic that previous reviews of this product arriving in rough shape were anomalies and my experience would be different. Well apparently either the manufacturer or the distributor have issues with shipping this product without breaking it. Upon arrival and inspection the bottom parameter (black plastic) was broken into numerous pieces. Based on other reviews I considered myself lucky as at least the thing wasnt dented like many others have reported. The broke pieces did not affect the function of the product so overall it works well and fits our space nicely. I could see a longevity issue however with the construction of the foot petal and corresponding arm mechanism.
