The trash bin is beautiful and I love the super quiet lid closure. The bottom grip isn't the best as it does move around slightly after couple of steps on my tile floor. I also don't like that I can't engage the lid to stay open by simply holding the lid up. Instead this model has it so that I have to essentially take the entire outer rim up until it clicks and have to use force to push the lid back down. I'm afraid it might break within a year. But so far everything else about it is great. It's beautiful, holds a lot and holds in smells quite well.
