New trash can
Much cleaner looking and with the lid ups up to dispose of the trash leaves any drippage going into the plastic bag inside of the trash can. Looks much nicer than the old one.

Don't order.
I would give zero stars if I could. I ordered this trash can as a Christmas gift and it came WITH NO BOX. It literally came as if you bought it in the store. They stuck a shipping label on it and said good to go. It's scratched AND broken. I ordered it so I wouldn't have to go to the store but I'll be going back to the store to return it.

    LOVE LOVE!
    The trash can is absolutely gorgeous!! It performs well, the lid opens smoothly and closes slow and quietly! The metal rim around the top is sleek and classy. I did a project with this trash and decorated it Beach theme! It’s probably the prettiest trash you’ll ever see!

    Good garbage can. Sticker is awful.
    This is a good sturdy garbage can and looks great considering the cost. Most garbage cans like this are hundreds of dollars. We needed an extra for our recycling items. However, I will say the sticker on the front is infuriating trying to get off. It doesn’t even want to come off using a hair dryer. I would recommend putting the darn sticker on the inside or something (in a discreet area) because here I sit picking it off piece by piece ?.

    Is it possible to love a trashcan?
    I never thought I could get excited about a trashcan, but this is the one! It's very sleek and modern looking and the feature that hides the actual trash bag is very clever. The lid opens gradually and doesn't slam open as many other trashcans do. No odors escape from the bin at all, which is a huge bonus. The foot pedal is easy to press and perfectly sized. I really can't say enough about this trashcan after suffering with a trashcan with an ill-fitting lid with odors escaping. A !!!

    Good Black Matte Trash Can
    Another purchase for a beach rental. I like how it's matte plastic instead of stainless steel, so hopefully it will last in the salty beach air. The trash bags fits perfectly and holds in place. We will see after a rental season how this holds up, but it looks good in the house. The only caveat is that when you wrap the top of the trash bag, it does hang out and down a few inches.

    Great modern design and the size fits perfectly
    Love the design of this trash can. Did some research on other expensive brands and ended up going with this one. Did not disappoint. Love that it has the stain steel bar, give it a nice touch. That bar also helps hide the trash bad which was a nice surprise I didn't know from the reviews. In terms of size it fits perfectly in most spaces. Great buy for the prize.

    Right fit for my little apartment!!
    I was looking for the bins with those sensors to open without touch but I have such a small kitchen space that I read in many of the sensor operated bus that a 3 feet approach would open up the bin. I would probably have the lid open always and spook me when I don't intend to use the bin. This bin lid is smooth to open and the trash bag fit is exact. Functional, good lookin and fits the space without looking shabby. Holds the 13gal bag perfectly. The lid function is right and doesn't rip trash bag. Clean finish even.

    Great garbage can
    This is a great garbage can at a great price. I'm considering buying a second one to use for recycling. Its very sturdy, and has a double lid. One opens when you press on the pedal, and it nests within the other one. The other one lifts manually and is how you install the bag (it secures and hides it), and this lid will also stay in the upright position if you want to keep the can open.

    Perfect size, quality and build for kitchen trash
    The Better Homes&gardens 11.9g Grey Plastic Step Can is the perfect solution for a garbage can in your kitchen or other places in the house that you want to keep your garbage out of sight and smell. The opening mechanism is very handy and heavy duty. It allows you to open the garbage can hands free and the closure does a great job of keeping the smells in. This trash can is made of heavy duty plastic and feels like it will be able to endure a lot of abuse. We recently took with us on a family vacation for use with in our travel trailer. The garbage can worked perfect for this purpose. It stood up to regular bumping into it in the small space of the camper, did a great job of keeping the trash smells in the can, and even got dumped over without spilling garbage. Garbage can bags or liners fit very nicely inside the garbage can and are held in place but the lid mechanism. The garbage can also looks very sleak and nice. Overall I would highly recommend the Better Homes&gardens 11.9g Grey Plastic Step Can to anyone looking for a great garbage can for their home.

    Stylish and modern
    I purchased this garbage can to use in my laundry room because the other one I had got really gross. I was looking for something large but that opened and closed with a foot pedal. The choices were gray and black so I chose grey. I have a really nice black one in my kitchen that was very expensive. I was expecting this to be low-quality. I was super surprised at how great of quality it is. First of all the gray color is very modern and stylish. It’s a perfect color. The size is great, nice and large. My favorite part is the lid. It has a step so you don’t have to get your hands dirty and the lid comes open but it doesn’t slam open. It also has a room that you can lift up to hold the garbage bags in place. Garbage bags never slip in or look messy. I’m super pleased with this purchase.

    Sleek & stylish
    This is a very sleek and stylish trash can. I like the grey color of it, it looks great in a white & grey kitchen. It has a "soft close" lid, so you never have to hear the lid slam down when it's closing. Of course, it has a step to open the can with your foot, which is super convenient. The surface of the can appears durable and easy to wipe clean when needed. I appreciate that this can has a stainless steel rim around the edge, meant for concealing the top edge of your trash bag. Unfortunately, even when I pull the trash bag all the way to the edge of the pull strings at the top of the bag, wait the bag falling in, you can still see the edge of the bag showing on the trash can. The stainless steel rim needs to be about 1/2" longer and then it would conceal the bag properly and improve the sleek & stylish look of the can. For this reason, I give it 4 stars because in the end, you end up seeing the bag anyway, but it's still a nice can.

    Perfect trash can for kitchen or craft room
    I like using this trash can in my craft room for all the scraps of paper, etc. It is the perfect size for the craft room and also works really well as a kitchen garbage can. It holds quite a bit of trash. The ring the holds the bag in place is great. It holds it securely so I'm not chasing the top of the bag and losing it into the garbage. I like that the lid is made onto the can. All you have to do to put a new bag in/take old bag out is lift it up. This is also great for in the kitchen because my dog can't knock the lid off and get into the trash. The lever to raise the lid works really well. I haven't any problems with opening the can. I also like that it closes automatically!

    Great trash can!
    Thank you so much for sending me this gorgeous trash can. The trash can looks Great in my home. Very sleek. I love that this can has a lid that can hide the trash bag lining the inside.I love how this trash can can hold the things that I don't want but look so good doing it! This trash can fit snugly in my kitchen and was not bulky and cumbersome to get around. I am bragging about a step can! But the step can is really worth raving about. The step itself is easy to depress and when the lid closes it is completely quiet. I received this step can as part of the Sparkreviewer program.
