Know before you buy
The integrated liner pocket is located inside the trash can, allowing you to store a pack of replacement bags directly within the unit. This ensures you always have a fresh liner ready to go without needing to search for one elsewhere.
No, the stainless steel liner rim is designed to flip down over the edge of the bag. This hides the excess plastic, keeping your kitchen looking neat and tidy.
Yes, the pedal is engineered from high-quality steel and is tested to withstand over 150,000 steps. This rating is designed to provide more than 20 years of reliable performance under normal household conditions.
While the can is designed to work best with simplehuman custom-fit liners to ensure a perfect, non-slip fit, it will accommodate most standard kitchen trash bags.
The exterior is made of brushed stainless steel, which provides a modern, durable look. It is easy to wipe down with a damp cloth, though it is best to avoid harsh abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.
