The container itself is excellent: elegant in a casual, modern way. However, be prepared for a massive amount of Styrofoam that you will have to chuck in the garbage. That is a huge waste and I hope the folks that are in charge of shipping can come up with a solution that is better for our planet. We only get our trash picked up once a month, and with no local recycling centers taking the stuff anymore, our can was filled with Styrofoam :(
