UPDATE - Fixed bag rupture issue!

Ok I've had this bin for a few months now. I wanted to live with it before I thought about it. I keep this in my kitchen because it looks so pretty and I love the big bin that I don't have to empty every 2 days. I like the overall look, how the lid keeps the bag in place, how the lid closes when you need it. I hate that. When I take out a full bag it is difficult and the bag usually breaks because the inside is not smooth, it has resin ribs that grab the full bag and tear when pulled. If they could make the inside smooth, this would be an absolutely perfect trash can. And I know you could put less junk in it so the bag isn't so full and pressing against the inside when you try to take it out. That? You use a large trash can because you want it to hold a lot of trash so you empty it less often and use fewer bags. I have an idea how to fix this and will probably try it in the next few days. I'm going to cut out 4 pieces of cardboard or flat plastic and glue them to the 4 inner walls to keep them smooth. This doesn't change the capacity and should solve the bag shredding problem. But should I do it, or should it be done like this? After some more real-world testing, the company should have realized that it tears up packets when they're full. Well, nothing is perfect. UPDATE 05/20/14. I fixed the inside of the trash can so it won't rip bags anymore! That's what you do I went to the world of walls and received a box that is in the delivery area of the package. You need a size 14 by 14 by 14, folded it costs 68 cents. When you open it, it fits in the trash can almost perfectly. You'll have to wiggle it a bit as it's not quite the same size, but it fits great when you slide it all the way in. Then just cut the top of the box so it sits inside the lid so it closes and lo and behold, the bags just slide out no matter how full they are! Please lol!
