We are currently using this in our kitchen in hopes that our dog will leave it alone. I like the design and that the lid is “soft” close so that it doesn’t sound like it is slamming closed like some other trash cans do. It is a decent size and we just use standard 13 gallon trash bags in it without any issues. I also like that is has the foot pedal opener so that you don’t have to touch the top of the can if you have dirty hands.
