Know before you buy

The flat back allows the can to sit flush against a wall or cabinet, making it a great space-saving choice for high-traffic areas like kitchens or hallways. The curved front provides a softer aesthetic and a wider opening for easier disposal.
Yes, the pedal is engineered to withstand over 150,000 steps, which equates to more than 20 years of daily use. It is built with a strong steel hinge that provides consistent resistance and a smooth opening motion.
No, the lid features a soft-close damper mechanism. It closes slowly and silently, preventing the loud banging noise common with cheaper trash cans.
The stainless steel finish is typically fingerprint-proof, but you can keep it looking new by wiping it down with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface and damage the protective coating.
