My new stainless steel multi-compartment trash and recycling bin was everything I had hoped for. Each compartment has a bag that is not quite full when you pull it out of the can, but I can usually find more trash in the house to fill them up. It is just the right size to fit up against my kitchen cupboard without sticking way out into the kitchen. It opens silently with a push on the foot peddle and closes slowly and silently. It is well made, sturdy, and quiet! The stainless can matches my stove and refrigerator. This trash bin is worth every penny you spend on it. Getting it on sale was even better!
