Mostly Super

Beautiful and well made, the Step 'N Sort combo trash and recycle bin was the best answer to a kitchen eyesore for us by combining two containers into one. One of the best features is that it has two sturdy inner containers with folding handles allowing removal of the inner containers separately. This feature is also the source of our single reservation about the design of this product. The layout of the folding handles places them inside the container itself, meaning the handle is inside the container with the trash liner bag and is covered up when a liner is in place. This in turn means that when it is time to change the bag, the handle to remove the inner container isn't accessible without first digging for it under the bag. Then, when the bag is pulled from the container, the handle obstructs by hanging on the bag as it is pulled out. A better design would have placed the handle outside the lip of the inner container instead of inside and would eliminate this problem altogether. Meanwhile, we have learned to place the bag liners into the containers so the handles are left outside the bag and, while this allows access to the handles when needed most, it leaves the handles exposed to whatever may be put into the trash and does not solve the problem removing the filled bags because of interference with the handles. Overall, Step N' Sort is an elegant solution to the kitchen trash/recycle problem and we would buy it again in spite of the design issue cited.

Much better than the Costco automatic trash can

Wife and I purchased an automatic trash can from Costco and it was impossible to remove the trash bag from the can when it was full (I have seen several people return this trash can when I'm at Costco). My wife didn't like the fact that I was the only one who could take out the trash. This trash can makes it very easy to remove the plastic interbin that has a metal handle to pull the bin up and we are recycling more because of the dual bin component. We have our first child on the way and it will be fun to teach him how to recycle with the two bins.

Great Bin for Under $100

This is a great trash can/recycling bin for the kitchen. Matches nicely with stainless steel appliances. A household of 2-3 can easily get through a week before having to empty it. The colored trash and recycling stickers stick out, so a subdued recycling logo would have been preferred. But that is a very minor issue and overall I am very happy with this product.

Good size but has some quirks.

I really like the size of the bins and it's perfect for our recycling and trash. My only issue is that it has a handle to lift out the trash bin but the handle doesn't allow the trash bag to fit snugly inside the bin. It's hard to explain but usually the bag is bunched up on the outside. Not a huge problem, just an irritating one. I'll figure out an alternative to that. Also, they suggest that you take out the cardboard piece in the bottom of the bin, however, when you do that there's no bottom so trash ends up on the floor. Seems odd to me.

Great for recycling!

Affordable product to use in separating garbage and recycle items compared with others I have seen. It has two individual cans and not a divider that could slip out of the holder. Fits perfectly where I had my previous kitchen trash can. The stainless steel finish matches appliances. Only problem I have is not being able to find plastic trash bags to fit the individual cans. The 13 gallon size does not fit tightly and requires some manuvering when replacing the can inside the unit. However, that is minor compared with having to sort recycle items for pickup which I will no longer have to do with a new trash pickup system starting soon. For larger recycle items, I either fold them to fit or will just toss them into the 96 gallan recycle can that will be provided. I would recommend and buy again.

Much better

This was actually bigger than I thought it would be, and it was a perfect fit for my kitchen. Its nice having both the trash and the recyclables in one unit. My regular 13gal trash bags fit fine, and the trash part of the bin holds just as much as my old one did. To me it looks just as good as the "other name brand" one, for a fraction of the price.

Time saver

I would have given this a 5 star rating except for one thing. The handles get in the way when you are putting in a new trash bag. I fixed the problem by using one of those big rubber bands to hold the bag in place. This arrived very quickly and didn't have any damaged. It was packed very well. We've only been using this a couple weeks and so far we like it a lot. No more cans and recycle sitting around on counters and tables until someone takes them out to the garage.

Awesome Double bin trash can. Best in the market

Overall, I am really happy with my purchase. It makes my kitchen that much more sophisticated. Matches my other appliances. Easy to clean. Love that I didn't have to pay too much vs other competitors. Just ALMOST Bought the one from Bed bath & beyond. This one is bigger and less expensive.

Great trash bin!!!

Previously owned a sensor bin, which gears were stripped. Wanted a double pedal trash can. This one is 16 gallons-GREAT size!! Handles inside were awkward (ended up taking them out) and just twist the bag around in one side for easier pulling out. Highly recommend.

I love it. I have a family of 4. We like yo recycle. It is a bit small but perfect for us because we take trash out nighly so nothing is lurking around for to long. So if you are looking for a full size double can this is not it. However if you are looking for a small bin to short plastic and glass or so on this is perfect.
