Review on πŸ—‘οΈ Brushed Stainless Steel 10L / 2.6 Gallon Profile Open Trash Can by simplehuman by Sarah Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fantastic containers but a bit fragile

Just opened the bin and installed the packages. First let me say this jar is very good, well packaged and had absolutely no problems getting started. Initially I pondered the setup (it's a trash can, it should be easy) but quickly realized it's just me (trash. trash can. Come on, you put the bag in the tank and then the trash in the bag. .. It's not that difficult a concept. Pull yourself together dude.) Anyway, I'm really enjoying it so far. It was pretty well made, everything fit snugly and didn't look like cheap Staples/Walmart (and other) trash cans. The containers inside are strong and durable. I also really like the additional opening on the side of each container, through which the air can escape quickly and easily when the bags are folded in and out. My only complaint, however, is the staying power of these cans. I accidentally dropped mine while picking it up because I was holding it in the middle. Since the only part I was actually holding was the magnetic top, the bottom part fell off and flipped over. Not a big deal, it hit the wall and another can I got on the way down made a bunch of noise but it's ok. Unfortunately, my glass got a nice scratch on the side and abrasion on the bottom. I was disappointed that cqn advertised as commercial quality sold so easily. I couldn't imagine it retaining its appearance over a long period of time. Not sure if the metal body is too thin or if it's a cheaper material than it looks. Overall, I'm not disappointed in either the functionality or the looks. Highly recommended, just note that you shouldn't try to hold it by the magnetic lid like I did.
