Brabantia Touch Bin New, Fingerprint Proof, Matt Steel, 30L

I wish there was more brabantia kitchen products out there. OK it was quite expensive however it is worth every penny! The bags you buy from brabantia fit perfectly and are strong, tear free, unmatched quality. Amazon delivered within 48hours, the lid closes perfectly to seal so no smells! So easy to use and looks great in our kitchen.

Very stylish and good quality

Love it, been a customer since the famous 60litre one came out all those years ago, I do more recycling so needed new size and colour and this fits better in my new kitchen 👌

Great bin. Thought it would be too bit, but it fits perfectly in my kitchen. Design is very good. Easy access, you can take out bin to pop a bag in, which also fits perfectly. It is touch lid, which suits me very well, as the other was a, press the foot at the bottom, which had discoloured after about 18 years, (that was also a Brabantia). Lasted so well. I would recommend to every one. They are expensive, but you get what you pay for, and I know this will last at least 10 years. I was also lucky enough to buy in the sales. Love it Brabantial!

We've had an excellent 60L Brabantia soft-touch bin since 2008, but after a kitchen-redo in 2018 its new location made it a bit of a nuisance as it's so big. Well, the spring on the lid snapped a few weeks' back and rather than try and source a replacement we decided 12 years was a good run and it felt like a good opportunity to downsize it the 40L (it might be misdescribed on Amazon as being 30L for some reason, so note this review is for the flat-backed 40L, not the all-round 30L), which is a little wider, but is shallower and has a flat back to go against a wall. On those grounds, it absolutely does the job, and indeed has a real benefit over the 60L (and the 30L) is being wider, sliding waste off cutting boards is so much easier, nothing goes on the floor ;) . And despite our slight fear about the downsizing in volume, 40L it turns out is still more than enough for a week, maybe sometimes even a little more, of kitchen waste for a couple of people. There are a couple of downsides. We don't think the soft-touch lid mechanism is anywhere near as good as the quality on our old 60L's lid, which was excellent (well, up until the point it suddenly wasn't, but that was after 12 years!). This rattles a little, and isn't as "soft". And we know it's not a one-off as we've actually had two, and the lid behaviour was identical on both. The first bin we were sent was unstable and rocked around while opening it. On investigating it (pictured) it turned out that the plastic base insert hadn't been attached properly and there was no way to reattach it, it was totally out of shape. We ordered a replacement and in that one it was fitted correctly, so we're pretty happy with it now: it's the right size for the position it's in, it's rock solid stable on the floor like the old one. It just seems there are some QA and cost-cutting issues at the factory, as shown by the broken base and cheaper-feeling lid. These are very expensive bins; one can accept the base was just a factory error, the lid feels a little more intentional. The broken bin was sent back and has been refunded with no issues. So we do recommend them, but check thoroughly and get it replaced if you find it's got anything that feels wrong.

Fantastic bin yet another great product from this company

Stylish kitchen accessory from Brabantia. Recommended

It’s a great bin. It’s jolly expensive. It’s cheaper than the more expensive ones whilst still being obscenely expensive, so you have to embrace the expense of the bin given that it’s cheaper than the others.

It’s perfect! Looks great, big enough, easy open/close, very well made! I will never by another kind, Baranita are the best trash cans I’ve seen to date

Rien à dire, c'est un superbe objet. J'ai du mettre un peu de WD40 sur le mécanisme du couvercle car il ne répondait pas aussi bien que le premier jour. Une fois huilé le couvercle s'ouvre comme un charme. J'apprécie aussi la facilité de retirer le haut de la poubelle, tellement plus simple que sur l'ancien model.

Ok

Supposedly a damaged version, so $100 cheaper than the regular price, but it was darn perfect, and after all, it's a bin

Lo que buscaba, calidad en materiales y diseño. Muy bien producto.
