Know before you buy
Yes, the slim, elongated footprint is specifically engineered for narrow spaces. Its compact design makes it an ideal choice for tight bathroom layouts or tucked under a home office desk.
No, the Quiet-Close™ lid technology is designed to lower gently and silently. It prevents the lid from banging against the frame, ensuring a quiet experience every time you use it.
The interior features a removable liner equipped with built-in tabs. These tabs allow you to hook the bag securely in place so it stays upright and doesn't collapse into the bin.
The exterior features a fingerprint-resistant finish that helps repel smudges and oils. It is designed to stay looking clean longer, though you can easily wipe it down with a damp cloth if needed.
This model does not include specific odor-neutralizing technology. However, the lid provides a standard seal that helps contain waste within the bin.
