Trash Garbage Can, 16 Gal (60L) Rubbish, Metal Step Bin, with Dual Compartments, Plastic Inner Buckets and Hinged Lids, Handles, Soft Closure, Airtight, Brown

Fond bien dans le décor

A un año y medio se le rompió la unión de la tapa y ya no abre, es irreparable ya que es de plastico y ni con pegamento se puede arreglar, una porqueria. Y eso que vivo solo y casi no lo uso, en una casa con mas actividad no funcionara ni 6 meses!

I received trash can with dent on the side

I love it! Works great

I have been using this trash can for over a month now and overall I do like it. It's a great way to separate your trash and recycles into different containers without having multiple containers in your house. I ordered stickers to label each side as "Trash" or "Recycle" for guests that come over. The trash can has solid metal construction and is a bit heavy. It came packaged very well and undamaged. It was fully assembled with the exception of the pedals that you step on to open it. All I needed was a screw driver and I had it assembled in about 5 minutes. It then took me another 5 minutes to figure out whey they lids wouldn't shut all the way. When it arrives you have to remove both bins from the trash can and remove Styrofoam packing that is placed in the very bottom of the unit to protect it during shipping. Once I did this everything worked great. The first thing I noticed is that the trash bags I'd been using were now way too big. I have a Costco size pack of Tall Kitchen Trash Bag Liners that hold 13 gallons. Each bin on this is actually closer to 8 or 9 gallons I think. There was quite a big of bag left over after I stuffed it down into the empty can. I tried to tuck it around the outside of the outer bin but inside the main bin. This left quite a bit of bag bunched up in the slot where the lid is supposed to rest. I finally had to twist the bag tight on one side and king of tuck the lump of extra back in the middle of one of the sides as there is a slightly recessed section on all 4 sides of the inner bins. I also discovered you have to place the handles on the inner bins forward when you place them back into the outer bin. Not a huge deal once I figured this out. Since both the inner bins are smaller than a regular kitchen trash can you will find yourself taking the trash out more frequently than you used to. I used to take it out once a week, now it's usually 2x a week but sometimes still once. I do have to take recycles out 2-3 times a week. This is significantly better than the daily trips I used to make when I didn't have a separate can so I call it a win. When you empty the bins the handles on the inner bins are a total pain in the rear. You have to grab the handle and keep it out of the way or it catches the liner and tries to knock the can over. It just occurred to me writing this review that I should simply remove those pesky handles on the inner bins! All in all this is a good trash can. It was expensive but then they all were! It solves the issue of taking out the recycles and keeps them organized. I'd recommend it despite some of the issues I pointed out. Once you learn how to work around them it's good. I think you'd have these issues with any of this style of dual trash can. Pros: Keeps trash and recycles separate and organized Nice looking Solid and heavy Eliminates the need for more than one receptacle in the house Fits perfectly against the end of standard depth and height base kitchen cabinets Cons: The handles are not all that helpful and would likely do better to simply be removed if you use a liner. Hold less trash than a standard kitchen size can Standard kitchen bags are too big and hard to stuff into the can so the lids close correctly
