I like that this Hefty trash can is a semi-round shape, I can put it up against the wall and it's compact.  The top has a push to open type lid.  It's a 12.8 gallon size and for me it holds a lot of recyclable items before it needs to be emptied out.  I also like that the color is black it matches my regular trash can.  You can use this Hefty trash can for either recyclables items or trash.  I really do like the shape of it because for me the round ones take up more room.
