So far so good. I'm not sure how effective the deodorizer is, I might replace it with something stronger since I'm using it for my cat litter trash. The soft close it nice but it feels like it takes forever (I timed it and it takes almost 5 secs). Overall it's a need little step-on trash can. I've had it for only a couple of days now and I'll update the review if there is any worth updating.
