Review on πŸ—‘οΈ Rubbermaid Small Kitchen Bathroom Trash Can: Under-Sink Waste Basket, 9 Gallon, Plastic Beige by Krista Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

tolerates insults; still in working condition

If you're not as trashy as me, you'll probably never replace it again. It took over 5 years to cut the bottoms of the Rubbermaid products that came with my kitchen cabinets. I don't have a garbage chute where I live so I try to squeeze as much garbage as possible into each garbage bag which means each garbage can needs a lot of weight before the bag is changed. My wastebaskets hang in drawers. I PUSH to compress the trash into containers that don't touch the ground. When I'm too full for that, I take out the bucket, put it on the ground, and stomp the garbage with my FOOT; sometimes all my 120 pounds. After 5 years the bottoms finally broke so I taped them up and used them for another 2 years before deciding to finally treat myself to a replacement - especially as I can't easily sanitize fission cans without bleach leaking sth. Me can't bring myself to throw out the old ones because despite my ridicule they are fully functional. Put a liner in, you can't see the tape and they look great. So I plan on donating them to the local animal shelter to use as laundry baskets.

Pros
  • quick change
Cons
  • almost never
