It's great in terms of looks. Unfortunately the step mechanism that opens the lid doesn't work reliably or consistently so we end up having to open the lid with our hands more than half the time.

Update: After just a few months, the irritation I've been feeling about this garbage can (due to the fact that it now *never* opens using the step) became too much so I bought a replacement from the "effortlessperson" brand. I should have bought that brand to start with but my partner and I balked at how much those garbage cans cost. So now I've spent 1.5 times what I could've paid, but the replacement works so well!

Bottom line: don't buy this garbage can. Upgrade to the better brand.
