This trash can is a fine product, but it's a little light for its size, meaning that it makes it easy to knock over when stepping on the pedal to open it. We haven't found exactly the right spot in the house where it can lean against a wall so that the lid can open without knocking over the can. I feel like if the plastic were a little heavier, the can might be a little more stable. That being said, we are generally pleased with the shape and function of this garbage can!
