Great can for recyclers. Be prepared to take trash out more frequently due to smaller sized compartments. But if you are looking for a dual can this is a really nice option. We used a regular 13gal bag in the trash bin and it worked fine. There is a hole in the bin where you can pull excess bag through so its not sloppy. We empty the recyclables into a larger blue bag and keep the liner in place until it gets ripped or heavily soiled. Highly recommended. Works great for us. (2 adults, 1 baby)
