Question: will the trash bag hold without the lid?  Does the lid come off?
Document: January 7th, 2012:This waste basket has a push down lever on the front that you press down and the lid swings up and open. The spring works well and I really like the fact that I can secure the bag down in the trash can while concealing the bag. Great so far.----Update February 10th, 2012:After 4-5 weeks the plastic push down lever on the front of the trash can broke off. Now the lid is worthless.
I had a wooden trash bin that just fell apart. I had shopped around for a replacement and just couldn't see paying over $50.00 for a trash can. I really didn't like the white so I covered it. This has been on of the best buys I've made. The lid fits well so there are no odors and the bags come right out and my 15 month granddaughter can't open it!
This trash can has some great design features and we really liked it, until it broke.Pros:The lid opening lever (which ultimately broke off) is simple to use.
This is the perfect trash can- lid seals tightly to the bottom can and the pop top works great to keep smells in and pets/rodent out. Very satisfied with this purchase.
The lid, of course, gets dirty, but as mentioned it's easy to wash.Cons:After about 2 years, the lever to open the lid broke off on one of our two trash cans.This trash can was our absolute favorite of all trash cans we've ever bought.
I live by myself and maybe use the can once or twice a day. No kids, or other people using the lid.
Needed a 13 gallon kitchen trash can. Did not want all the bells and whistles, such as iTouch, which cost a fortune and never worked right.This serves purpose.Reduced by one star because it's hard to figure out how to place bags in can. A bit of force is needed to to open and must really push hard to close tight. It will work for a while. Price was great. Service was prompt.
Disappointed that after a  week it does not stay closed. Contacted the retailer & got no response. Using it but keeping a weight on it, so the dogs cannot get into it
Answer: The lid does come off but most bags probably won't hold without the lid.
