Customers like the size of the trash can. They say it fits into a small spot, the correct-sized bags fit well on the inner container, and it works consistently. The slim footprint means that it fits in tight spaces. The custom-fit liners are designed to precisely fit the can's shape, and add to the overall efficiency. The can holds a lot, fits normal 13 gallon bags, and is sleek and elegant.

Customers are satisfied with the performance of the trash can. For example, they mention it works well, the standard trash liners work well, and the custom bags work well.

Keeps dogs out and odors in!

Keeps dogs out and odors in!
My family of six (2 big humans, 1 little human, 2 curious cats and 1 mischievous dog named Rubble) have owned and abused this trashcan since 2021; It is by far the best trashcan for keeping the smells in and the animals out.No batteries required. No electronics. Just a heavy duty foot pedal to open the bi-fold top that never fails. When it's time to take the trash out, you open the lambo doors, remove the inner bin, grab the bag straps, pull up and enjoy. Yes, you read that right, enjoy. The slots on the sides of the inner bin let the bag glide right out with little to no effort; Never struggle again.As for Rubble, well, his name doesn't rhyme with trouble for no reason. If he catches wind of human food, he's going to stop nothing short of calling in a demo crane to eat it. The good news is this trashcan is too strong for the crane. He can't break in, but my little human can still use it. Incredible.
