10 years ago I Purchased a round foot operated trashcan from Sam’s. It was a nice trashcan. But it’s time was up. So I started searching for a new one. I always check wirecutter.com for their recommendations. They recommended one from simplehuman which, no doubt, is a wonderful trashcan, albeit quite expensive. So I thought, let me check out Sam’s. Am I ever glad I did! This trashcan from Tramontina is fantastic! First of all, I have learned that a square can is much better than around can - The trash bags are far easier to remove when full Plus you can get a whole lot more into them. The Cannes can be right up against a wall And still open properly. The lid closes slowly and quietly. And since you hardly ever have to touch the can, it stays clean! I would buy it again in an instant! To top it all off, the price is about half of the simplehuman can.

The outside is stainless steel and some parts are metal but the rest is plastic. The problem is that the step to open the lid broke in the middle where the pivot metal rod is. We have to open the trash manually by lifting the corner of the lid by hand. They need to put a metal rod cross the step plate and it might have last longer.

I bought this a little over 3 years ago when we moved into our new place... It's been working perfectly until my son got a little "over zealous" with stepping on the pedal a week ago and broke the mechanism on the bottom. One of the nicest pedal lid garbage cans we have ever had... Going to go get a new one tomorrow, 3 years of life for a trash can in the kitchen being used daily in our house is pretty fantastic.

Easy to dent

Recieved with dent in lid. No damage to package, likely damaged at manufacturer.

Packed well, no issues, functions as expected in this first 2 weeks.

Great buy! Exactly what we needed. It’s very good quality.

Looking for durability- I think this trash can will last at least 3-5 years. This will do. I love how easy it is to clean.

Perfect size and doesn’t smudge like our old Simple Human

great step on trash can like that lid closes quietly and slowly would recommend
