This is the perfect size trash can for every room in the house.  My 2.6 gal Hefty StepOn Trash can is so convenient!  I could probably list 20 plus reasons why I love it but I will keep it shorter.  Let me tell about the that you can use a grocery shopping bag to line can.  The lid has a holder that it locks your bag in place so it does not slide down.  The can is easily removable for cleaning or emptying.  It have an easy step on open top, the closed top keeps our new puppy out of the trash.
I am also finding this really convenient in the kitchen with my husband out of town and I don' t need a big trash can.  This little one helps avoid the fruit flies.
