Perfect for recycling

We had a smaller Step N Sort prior to this one. The lifting mechanism on the left side broke after at least five years of daily use. I suspect this one will last about five years as well. The best part of this is that there is enough volume in this Step N Sort to hold a lot of recycling. I only have to empty it twice a week instead of every day. Also, the size is perfect for holding a liner in the side for the plastic and glass so the container stays clean, the small one was unable to hold a liner. This recycle center is perfect for our recycling needs.

Love It!!!

I love this trash can, I just received it today, fast shipping! Thank god my can wasnt dented up like some other customers. My only complaint was that I could have sworn it had little hooks on the inside to hold the trash bags, to keep from slipping. But other than that I love it!!

Pleasantly surprised

I previously had a trash can from costco that was similar to this but wasn't separated, it was all one large trash can. I loved it but when it broke no one knew how. Apparently replacing it was harder than I thought. There was no brand name found on it. I looked in several stores and online for a replacement and there was nothing cheaper than $100 (for a trash can!) I didn't want the cheap plastic bin type. When I saw this one, I liked the convenience and look and even went against one reviewer who said it was a good idea but cheaply made. I disagree, and am happy with my purchase. Con: Just a lot smaller than what I'm used to. Pro: It has kept the trash/recycling area much neater, as we used to just use a paper bag for recycling.

Great Concept

This came double boxed which was amazing for shipping! These are the thickest boxes Ive even seen. Product came undamaged. I think this concept is great for those who have recycling and trash. Also, the stainless is a perfect match to our appliances. The size although a more slender can, fits quite a bit. My only complaint is about the trash bags. Its hard to make sure the bags do not stick out because the trash cans inside are a tight fit.

Great for a minimalist but doesnt hold enough

I got this to eliminate two different cans qnd its not fit for a family of 4 , the can only holds so much and u will have to pull out your bag (13 gallons) to actually fill it . I do like everything about it but the limited space is a problem but I would keep it and Ill just have to get a separate can for recycling or versa

Good for trash and recycling

It looks nice in my kitchen and now I don't need a separate recycling bin. The way the inner buckets pulls out works well. You can use standard trash bags. The bins aren't as big as I'd like. I'd prefer them to be as big as a normal trash can. It arrived dented. The packaging isn't enough for shipping. It only has thin foam on the sides.

Poor design

I really wanted this to be a great garbage can. Especially for the price. It is very difficult to get bags to stay put in these cans. You do your best to wrap them under the very thin edges, but as garbage is put in, it falls. In fact, its hard to even get the cans back in after you've put the bag in. Super frustrating. In addition, the holes are smaller than a typical garbage, which makes sense, but when its full, I pull out the bag and the bag is only half full. This garbage may work for some, but I am definitely not happy.

reply from Step N' Sort

Hi Kristin. Sorry to hear you're unhappy. We do make custom fit liners specifically designed for this unit. They are Step N' Sort Sac Model SAC002 and guarantee a perfect fit each and every time. You really should not have any difficulty keeping the bags in place. If you're bag is only half full when you remove it from the container, you may be using the wrong size bag. Each bin holds 8 Gallons, and subsequently 8-10 gallon bags are ideal for this receptacle. Hope this information helps!

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.

Returned to store

The trash can arrived and it was a great size and design. However the foot pedals were small and flimsy. We didn't think they'd last more than a month with normal use, so we returned it. It's a shame because other than the pedals, it was a great product.

Great garbage can for a small space. You can put garbage in one side and recycle in the other. Time will tell if the pedals to open lids past the test of time. Very sleek and nice looking can. I have it out in clear view and it looks like part of the furniture.
