Won't last! best for rubbish, recycling and compost

Be careful - the part that holds the lid and bucket together is a very brittle plastic. I ordered 2 and one came broken. I'm sending both back because I'm sure the other one won't last long.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Attractive and functional

This is a cute little bin. It was securely packaged and I had no issues with the lid not working or cracking. When the container is about 3/4 full the lid can sometimes get stuck in the open position, which makes sense to me because you're pushing the lid down into the container where it meets friction. For me it's just a reminder to take the junk out on a sensible schedule rather than playing the cautious jenga game with the junk.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Style 90

box opened! Cute design

I read all the negative reviews but still chose this one because it's the best design I could find. (I'd love to see someone make this out of ceramic and teak!) I opened the box and turned it upright, the lid fell into the canister and the leg of the lid that was resting on the inner pin broke off. I used super glue and it was on the back. I'll oil it so it's not brittle, maybe I'll tape the back somehow to strengthen it as it's a very thin wood and hope for the best.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Socket required

Very pretty and comfortable - broke easily

I needed a small bin that would fit on my stairs and I wanted it to be pretty. I almost gave up trying to find a "pretty little bin" but then I found this one and it's perfect! I really love the trash can because it's so cute and the flip top lid is so handy! Exactly what I was looking for! *** UPDATE: Very sad to say it only lasted about a week and a half before the lid broke. One of the small plastic pins that hold the lid in place and allow it to flip has broken off completely.

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • too dull

Very handy for waste paper baskets

I bought this bin to use under the sink to collect rubbish. I wanted something small enough to fit in a supermarket bag. I use these packs to line the trash can. It's perfect for that need. I take out the trash at least once a day so I don't have to worry about smells. I threw away the bamboo case - I don't need it. But the top ring holding this piece of bamboo does a great job of holding the plastic bag in place. Remove the ring, insert the hooded pouch and replace the ring. Now when I throw…

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Some flaws

Poor lid design is good for storage and organization

Bought it for its compact size and for bathroom use. Very disappointed that the lid doesn't "rock". After you press it with your finger to open it, it just stays open. I was expecting it to close by itself. no You have to use your finger again to close it. It's also disappointing that there's no obvious place to press to open the lid, and since it only opens one way it may take a few tries. When I leave it on (not sure at the moment) I have to mark where you press it to open it and weight the…

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Some cons

Small wastepaper basket / lid

This small wastepaper basket is perfect for my purposes. Remember it's small. But I liked it so much and it's so perfect for my use that I bought two more. I burn incense, and as anyone who smokes incense knows, it can get a little messy with the leftover ash and unburned sticks. Everywhere I burn incense sticks there is one of these little garbage cans. They're perfect for sweeping all the "leftovers" in the bin and keeping everything clean. They may also occasionally find a napkin or two and…

Pros
  • Quick change
Cons
  • Almost never

Ridiculously small, ridiculously impractical, and badly made to boot!

This garbage can is just bad. It's hard to fail when developing such a simple product; Garbage can. The lid is VERY sharp, so don't do anything crazy like get your fingers too close to it, and also wear heavy chain gauntlets when trying to "empty" the container. Which brings me to the next point. Dude, why the hell are you making it so difficult for yourself to empty the trash can? Taking the trash out of the trash can is just as important as throwing it in. You see, without output, input…

Pros
  • also understandable for the old ones
Cons
  • some little things
