Great quality / good design
Looks and works great! I thought I needed to keep buying “special” bags, but the regular 13 gallons fit well. The lid opens easily. I changed from a stainless steel bin to this one (plastic), and it was the best decision. So easy to clean and the gray tone matches my stainless appliances. Its shape is perfect as it holds the 13 gallon bag, but without being bulky. The wheels make it easy to move around.

Perfect size
I think this is the best kitchen trash container I have ever had. The regular 13 gallon plastic trash bags fit nicely and tight enough that the bag will not slip off or fall inside. The soft close feature works great and the nice, slim line of this fits nicely in the area I need to place it. Overall - this is the best!

Space saving workhorse
Truth be told, what I truly desire in the deepest corner of my heart is SimpleHuman's stainless steel butterfly step trash can, but I just could not justify (to my bank account) spending $160 on a trash can. Alas, I went with the plastic slim step-child, and although it lacks the diva flair of the butterfly, it's a sturdy little workhorse that provides maximum capacity in a very slim size. I have a galley kitchen with a narrow floor to ceiling window at one end in lieu of a wall. It provides nice lighting but isn't a good place for the garbage can, so I needed something that can fit under a sink cabinet or sit against the end of the counters and still be narrow enough not to block the entry way too much. This garbage can fits the bill nicely. The stepping mechanism feels sturdy even when the can is empty, with no wobble to it, and the top stays open if you lift it up by hand to 90 degrees, which is nice when I'm dumping scraps off of the counter into the can. The mouth of it is fairly wide and square, so larger items are easily disposed (fits gallon milk containers easily). It shuts slowly and quietly, no splattering, and seals nicely. The wheels make it easy to move it around. Locking feature is a nice touch to deter small children and pets from getting into the trash. I use regular trash liners (Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen 13 Gallon Trash Bag with drawstrings) rather than the SimpleHuman specific ones, and the drawstring part stretches just enough to slip over the lip of the can and the bag fits very snugly around the rim so that you don't get debris accidentally falling outside of the trash bag. I imagine this little workhorse will remain in our kitchen for a long time, even if we move to a bigger place. Unless I win the lottery and can afford the stainless steel butterfly step can.

A nice trash can, but not as good as the 13 gallon semi-round
This is a pretty decent trash can! It's a bit on the expensive side, but Simplehuman seems to make really nice stuff that lasts a while. This one is definitely not as good as the 13 gallon semi-round one I have as my regular kitchen trash can, but it works as a recycling can. The metal foot pedal feels nice and sturdy, and the lock function works well. I do have a few gripes with it though. First, standard 13 gallon kitchen bags can only *sort of* work in this can. I assume it's so that you buy their proprietary bags, but absolutely no way am I paying the upcharge for their stupid special trash bags. Second, it tends to scoot around a lot. I keep it up against a wall, and using it with the foot pedal makes it scoot side to side a bit the more you use it. I assume it's because of the wheels on the back, but it's kind of annoying. Last, the lid feels a little flimsy and kinda flops around when you open the can. It seals and works with the slide lock, but it's not the same level of quality I'm used to from my bigger can. Overall, I'd only recommend this can if you need something that fits in a tight space. I was thinking it would work well as a secondary recycling can with the bigger one as my normal trash can, but I honestly should've just spent a bit extra and gotten the nicer one. For slim cans though, this is a pretty good one.

Attractive, easy to use, fits a narrow space nicely, comes with a 5 year warranty
We have had this garbage can for about a month now, and I love it! My favorite feature is the pedal combined with the gentle-close lid; this feature not only makes it convenient for when you don't have a free hand to lift the lid, it also means my almost-three-year-old can operate it easily as well. So far he has been great about only using it when we give him something to put in the trash, but in case he ever starts to get a little overzealous, it also has a lock that slides into place on the lid where the silver handle is located. It is slim and not unattractive, which is saying something for a trash can I think. It fits the 13-gallon trash bags we use (Glad brand, I think?). This trash can replaced a dumpy looking little blue swing top lid trash can (either 7 or 10 gallon size), that forever required me to clean the lid and sides because it collected dirt and grime with nearly every use. Not only does the design of this trash can mean that it doesn't really collect dirt and grime on the outside (love the pedal lid lift!), but the black color means that if it does, it won't look disgusting right away, giving me a few days or even a week or more between wipe-downs. Honestly, I would love the Cadillac version of this trash can, but since my budget won't allow me to spend over $100 on a trash can, I will "settle" for this awesome trash can (haha, I can't really call this "settling," since it is the nicest trash can I have owned!). Since we've only had it a month, I can't really say anything about how sturdy it is, other than to say that it seems like it will last well into my old age (I'm 45 now), and it comes with a 5 year warranty - you just register it on the web site (super easy!). Even my Breville Toaster Oven doesn't come with a 5 year warranty! Heck, I'm not sure that much else with moving parts comes with a 5 year warranty these days... EDIT: it's now April 2022 and this trash can is still holding up nicely. The silver on the handle has worn a little, but it doesn't look terrible. This was definitely a good purchase.

Really amazing build quality and soft lid operation. The size is fairly large so make sure you check the measurements before you order. Check others review on how to easily fit the hinge cover.

Me encantó, llegó antes de lo programado, el tamaño es perfecto no es estorbos y se adecua al espacio que tengo y el detalle del seguro para mascotas está genial, el material parece que es resistente, las llantitas traseras no son lo mejor así que si deseas un bote de basura de uso rudo y que estarás moviendo de lugar este no es el ideal en mi caso estará fijo así que me parece adecuado en calidad, funcionamiento, tamaño y costo

J'ai acheté cette poubelle pour sa capacité à être verrouillée pour les chiens. J'ai beaucoup cherché pour trouver ce système,je n'ai trouvé que cette marque ! J'ai hésité,la trouvant un peu chère mais aujourd'hui je ne regrette pas. Mes chiens l'ont testée !( Ils sont 3 ) Elle a été renversée, rayée , mais est restée fermée. À tous les propriétaires de chiens/ chats, amateurs de poubelles, je recommande. Sinon à côté de ça, elle est pratique, je mets des sacs de 50 l , ne tient pas trop de place et son aspect est joli.

Contenedor de basura de gran calidad, y mucho mejor de lo que me esperaba. Gran diseño y materiales de alta calidad. Necesitaba uno a prueba de perros, ya que a mi puntero/sabueso de tamaño mediano a grande le encantaba la basura, pero también es muy inteligente para abrir cosas. Pero este es IMPOSIBLE de abrir, gracias a su cerradura a prueba de perros. ¡Muy recomendable!

分別用に2点購入しました。 大きさや素材感は思っていた通りの品物で満足しています。 難点としては、中にキャスター部分などの凹凸があるので洗いにくそうです。 蓋の取り付けは、かなり固いのですが、思っていたよりも簡単にはまりました。 2点中の1点は、開梱して蓋をビニールから出したところ、蓋の表に縦の線が入っていました。よく見たら裏にも入っていたので、ヒビだと思います。 蓋の入っていたビニール袋もオリジナルのものではなかったのも気になり、1点はそのまま返品し、再度、購入しました。
