This is a really good trash can.  Love the split compartment for recyclables.  I thought the compartments might be too small but not the case at all.  This is a one person household but I think it would be good for a small family. I got the matching trash bags which fit perfectly.  It may be a slight bother to replenish these bags if I could pick one thing to quibble about. The construction is quality and the lid closes quietly. Everything you would expect from a trash can in this price range.
