Absolutely love this trash can! I works like a charm. Step on the pedal, it opens for the trash and walk away.. It has a soft close lid that slowly closes instead of banging down. It is slim so it takes up little space and the grey color goes with my stainless steel appliances. Regular kitchen 13 gal. bags hug the top of the trash tightly and are hidden by the lid without interfering with the look of the trash can.
