Our pantry was overrun with saved plastic grocery bags. This container makes it easy to stuff the bags in without scraping your hand, thanks to the rubber-lined opening at the top. I love how the bags are now in a tidy, contemporary stainless container. The capacity said 30 bags, but I probably stuffed more like 50 in there. The bags are still easy enough to pull out -- not so stuffed you can't pull a bag out. I haven't mounted this on the wall yet, so can't speak to that feature in action.
