My boyfriend's biggest complaint is having to take out the recyclables because we have 5 different containers for them and they all fall over the place when he's carrying them (seriously #firstworldproblems) but with this its much more convenient. He can also see when it's starting to fill up (not that it stops me from having to tell him 100 times to take it out, but at least now I can say he can see it filling up). It was a little to big to hide under our sink, so we have it in our pantry.
