From the moment I introduced the simplehuman Butterfly Lid Step Trash Can into my home, its sleek appearance added a touch of elegance to my space. The brushed stainless steel exterior not only exudes sophistication but also stands as a testament to the can's durability and longevity.
The standout feature of this trash can is undoubtedly its innovative butterfly lid design. The split lid opens from the center, ensuring that it fits perfectly under countertops and in tight spaces. This unique mechanism also prevents the lid from hitting walls or other objects when opening, a thoughtful touch that showcases the brand's attention to detail.
The step pedal operation offers a hands-free and hygienic way to dispose of waste. The pedal itself is engineered for durability and provides a smooth and effortless opening experience. The whisper-quiet close of the lid is another testament to the trash can's quality craftsmanship.
The 30L capacity is perfect for daily household waste disposal, striking the right balance between size and convenience. The custom-fit liners, designed to precisely fit the can's shape, add to the overall efficiency of the trash can, preventing unsightly overhang and ensuring a clean appearance.
Maintenance is a breeze with the simplehuman Butterfly Lid Step Trash Can. The removable inner bucket simplifies emptying and cleaning, while the fingerprint-proof coating on the exterior ensures that the can looks pristine with minimal effort.
While the simplehuman trash can delivers outstanding performance and design, it's worth noting that the premium features might come with a higher price tag compared to standard trash cans. However, the superior quality and innovative features more than justify the investment.
In conclusion, the simplehuman 30L Butterfly Lid Step Trash Can is a triumph in waste management innovation and aesthetics. Its sophisticated design, efficient operation, and superior quality earn it a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. If you're seeking a trash can that seamlessly combines style and functionality, the simplehuman Butterfly Lid Step Trash Can is a must-have addition to your home. Prepare to elevate your waste disposal experience to new heights with this exceptional product.
Pros:
Innovative butterfly lid design for space-saving operation
Hands-free step pedal operation
Durable construction and whisper-quiet lid close
Convenient 30L capacity with custom-fit liners
Easy maintenance with removable inner bucket and fingerprint-proof exterior
Cons:
Higher price point compared to standard trash cans
In summary, the simplehuman 30L Butterfly Lid Step Trash Can redefines waste disposal with its elegance and efficiency. Its design, features, and performance make it a standout choice for anyone seeking a premium trash can solution. The 5-star rating reflects the simplehuman trash can's outstanding quality and transformative impact on waste management.
The 13 gallon bags I buy in bulk from Costco or Sam's Club fit fine, but since each can came with 3 packages of sample bags (I think 2 or 3 bags per package), I'm using those for now. I've only had the cans a few days, but so far we really like them--and we only had to take the trash out ONCE in two days! We usually fill up our old can at least twice a day.
The butterfly feature is the reason I purchased these particular cans, and the quiet close (they close slowly, they don't slap down!) is very nice. To change the bag, you only have to lift the back of the can and tilt it forward so that it stays propped up a bit, and pull the old bag out. No need to take out the entire plastic liner can. In other words, there is no lifting (other than the actual bag of trash). To keep the top open to peel carrots or whatnot, you just move the metal bars holding each side up into a little grooves and presto!--the can stays open for you.
These have a 10 year warranty, for which I plan to register online. I purposely chose not to buy a motion sensor can because there seems to be too much chance it will fail. But these don't have any fancy mechanisms, as far as I can tell, so should hold up pretty well. The reviews seem to suggest this will be the case.
The reason we replaced our little $10 plastic under-the-sink open trashcan is because the one year old cat we just adopted kept sneaking in the cabinet and dumping the trash all over the kitchen and dragging it out into the rest of the house! This TOTALLY solved our problem (though somewhat expensively--but that's neither here nor there!). And our recycling was going into an old plastic gallon ice cream tub and had to be taken out several times a day (and was gross to look at). Now we have this HUGE enclosed can and can put everything in there and take it out far less often. Everyone in the family is very happy with these can.
So worth the money!!! If you are considering these and they fit your budget (I used birthday money, but I'm a little embarrassed to say this in my thank you note to mom :-), go for it. If all you are looking for is a trashcan, go to Walmart and spend $10-20. But if you want a trashcan that looks good, works really well, holds a lot, fits normal 13 gallon bags and will supposedly last for years, spend the extra bucks and be done with it. You'll be glad you did!
Never thought I would have "fun" with a trash can. LOL. Oh, yes, the inside bin comes out for cleaning, putting in the bags, etc. Easy. But seriously, it is expensive but I have other SimpleHuman things (great great paper towel holder)... so thought we would stretch our budget and try this one. It is a keeper for sure! Pretty, functional, quiet, space saving.... that's it. A great item!
4/22/14 Additional info: We have now been using this wonderful trash can for awhile now. It is still a wonder to use ! Yep it is fun... my husband now loves to go put things in the trash to watch is sloooooowly close ! But also, it has some vents not he bottom which means when we take out the inner bin to put in a new trash bag etc. it doesn't get stuck due to pressure, the bin comes out easily, take out the plastic bag and then put in the new bag. We are using tall kitchen bags now, not the ones that came with the can. we have had NO problems at all using tall kitchen bags. They fit fine. So this bin is about the most perfect trash can you can find. (We also use the Simplehuman paper towel holder which is also perfection). so we have nothing but good words for this company. And for someone who asked about toddlers fingers getting stuck in the bin or something, I would say don't worry. The split lid closes so softly and slow that this would not be a concern I don't think. We love it.

Good size for most places where the bin gets cleaned out every month or so.
