Overview
A kitchen with room for a tall step can is where this rectangular model fits. The brushed stainless steel body resists fingerprints, and a foot pedal opens the lid, which closes quietly.
Emptying and moving it are simple, and the brushed finish hides smudges. The size takes up floor space, and the listing does not name the liner.
Who it's for
Households that fill a bin quickly and want a sturdy stainless can in a visible kitchen spot. Those with limited floor space, or who want an automatic lid, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Smudge resistant finish
- Liner size not listed
- Takes floor space
Performance notes
A foot pedal operates the lid, which leaves hands free while carrying waste, and the soft close damper stops slamming. The removable bucket lifts out for cleaning and bag changes.
