## Description

Product Description simplehuman's stainless steel rectangular step can features an innovative 'liner pocket' that stores and dispenses liners from inside the can for a faster liner change. The stainless steel liner rim grips the liner and keeps it hidden. And with no inner bucket, there's more space for trash. Strong wide steel pedal is designed to last, and our patented lid shox technology ensures a smooth, silent close every time. Code Q liner refill packs store perfectly in this can's liner pocket. Brand Story We design tools that help people become more efficient at home. Day to day life has room for improvement. That's the basic thinking behind simplehuman. Many activities in our daily routine are so basic that we take them for granted. Washing our hands, cleaning up after a meal, grooming and prepping our appearance. Through innovation and new technologies, we find ways to streamline these simple tasks. We call our products tools for efficient living.

Review: Very nice steel trash can - This arrived better than expected. It’s the nicest standalone waste bin that I’ve ever used. The bags fit well and are easy to put in. The full bags come out easily. The foot pedal works nicely and the lid is very quiet and effective. It’s attractive as a steel can goes. It has a compartment to hold more bags but after we used the ones that came with it, we just use the standard kitchen size bags from the store. After moving from a home with a hidden can in the cabinet, hubby wasn’t too thrilled that we were going back to a stand-a-lone trash can again. It seems you never have room for them and it’s never in a convenient place when you find room. And they are usually pretty ugly. But we both really like this one.
Review: Best Kitchen Trash Can Ever - This is my second time ordering this can. The older one is still in perfect condition - I needed an additional one for outside. It is nice and neat - very easy to switch bags. This comes with it's own special bags but you can use the regular 13 gallon bags from the store. There is no bulky inner bin to pull out and replace. It looks great and stays clean. It does not rust. It just makes my everyday life easier. I never thought I's rave about a trash can, but this is the best.

## Features

- NEAT AND SECURE - Stainless steel liner rim flips up for a quick and easy liner change, then closes over the liner to hold it tightly in place and keep it hidden from sight.
- LINER POCKET - Keep liners where you need them. Dispense them one by one — no perforations or unraveling — from inside the can for a faster liner change.
- FINGERPRINT-PROOF COATING - The can's stainless steel surface is protected by an invisible fingerprint-proof coating
- STRONG WIDE STEEL PEDAL - simplehuman's extra-wide steel pedal is engineered to last 150,000 steps — that's more than 20 steps a day for 20 years.
- SILENT CLOSE LID - simplehuman's patented lid shox technology controls the motion of the lid for a slow, silent close.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful
*by Y***R on August 22, 2025*

I never knew a trash can could be beautiful until I purchased this product. Although it is pricey, I was thankful to have gotten it on sale. It is very sturdy and well-designed. The lid opens and closes slowly, which I think will help it last longer. The size is just right, and I appreciate the trash bag storage compartment located inside the trash bin. I also like that it came with an air freshener pod.
