Its a really good trash can, looks nice, and is the perfect size for a compact apartment, the only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because the trash compactor piece wasn't quite what I thought it was, it doesn't cover the entire area of the trashcan, so you are liable to get some garbage juice on your hands etc. It can also be difficult to get back into it's holder. Overall it's a great trashcan and the compacting portion is a nice feature, I just wish it were slightly larger.
