I've had this bin for about a month, mineral concrete grey which isn't as boring as it sounds, when the light hits it it's actually quite sparkly, I was concerned with the size of the waste side of the bin at first, wasn't sure it would be big enough, but for me and two always hungry teenage boys, but along with the recycling compartment it's perfect,  I really like having the recycling compartment as no longer have jars, bottles and such like piling up waiting to be taken outside. I also find having the pedal to open the bin much more practical as not having to touch the lid to open when cooking using raw meat ect, good sturdy quality as expected with Brabantia, the bin comes with three bags for each compartment to get you started. Just realised I've had my last bin for over ten years and still in good working order so although this might seem a bit pricey you will certainly get your moneys worth over the years, very pleased and would recommend
