Overview
A 20 gallon stainless steel kitchen trash can from Glad with Clorox odor protection built into the lid and frame, a soft close lid and a step pedal. It suits a kitchen that wants a larger capacity can without an open top releasing odor.
The odor control is built into the lid and frame material itself rather than relying only on a scented bag, which is the detail that separates this from a plain stainless can. A rear storage compartment for spare bags is meant to keep replacements on hand right at the can instead of in a separate cabinet.
- 20 gallon capacity
- Clorox odor protection in lid and frame
- Soft close pedal lid
- Fingerprint resistant stainless finish
Who it's for
Good for a kitchen that generates enough trash to want the full 20 gallon size and prefers a pedal operated lid over lifting one by hand. Less useful in a small kitchen where a 20 gallon footprint will not fit.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 20 gallon capacity for higher trash volume
- Odor protection built into lid and frame
- Soft close lid and step pedal operation
- Rear compartment stores spare bags
- 20 gallon size needs more floor space than a compact can
Performance notes
Odor protection is embedded in the lid and frame rather than added as a spray or insert, so it works passively as long as the lid closes. The soft close hinge slows the lid on its own rather than needing to be caught by hand, and the fingerprint resistant finish is a surface coating rather than a different steel grade.
