SIMPLI-MAGIC 60 Liter / 16 Gallon Rectangular Hands-Free Dual Compartment Recycling Kitchen Step Trash Can with Soft-Close Lid, Brushed Stainless Steel

I love this dual compartment garbage/recycling can. It holds a lot and looks great too. I tie a knot in the tie on one side of the garbage bag and place it in the can and the bag fits tight and does not come undone.

I couldn't believe how much I paid for a garbage can, but it's ended up being exactly what we needed. There's not a thing I've come across that bothers me yet. It stays put, doesn't slide on hard flooring. The lids open easily, and aren't very noisy when they close. Doesn't seem to fingerprint too badly. The removable containers have a hole near the top of each so you can anchor your garbage bag. Keeps in smell pretty decent. I haven't tried to change or re-order the charcoal filters yet, but they do stick a QR code right inside one lid for when you need them. It's been pretty handy all around. Last thought, not a complaint because they're a good size for my household, but be aware the individual containers aren't huge.

Love this trashcan/recycling bin duo! Could it be a little larger, probably but works for our needs and I love the pedals to open the tops! Durable! Easy to clean! Id say money well spent!

Love this Trash Can! Such good Value for Money. Love the multiple color inner bins. This is a super value for Money and it holds a good amount of trash and recycling. Beautiful Stainless Steel Finish and very High Quality

Strange when putting in garbage bags because then it won’t close all the way. It takes some maneuvering. But the mechanism that allows it to close slowly broke! The plastic bit broke so now it slams shut. I was shocked something at this price level Would break like that in a matter of days.

I was torn as to whether or not I should have purchased this Simpli-Magic trash can. Well, so far I am glad I did. Can you actually be in love with a garbage can? Well I am. This beauty, with its dual functionality is a gem. The size is perfect for my average size one bedroom NYC apt. Many people were complaining about the installation of the bags. Many do not know how to seamlessly accomplish this task. There are two holes in each bin. One at the top and the other at the bottom. The bags should be pulled through. The top from the outside while giving it a few twists, and the bottom pushed out from the inside. When pulled in concert with each other, they will all allow the bags to have a perfect fit allowing the bins lids to close securely. And lastly, the added charcoal or fragrance compartment to combat odor is a bonus. The bin was adequately packaged for shipment and arrive flawlessly. Any developed problems I will do an up date. I love, love it. One minor flaw. Simpli-Magic did not need to place their large company logo on each lid. It is my intention to cover them with a “TRASH & RECYCLE” stickers. This, however, does not take away from its beauty and functionality. Fingerprint resistant is questionable.

Tried this out because I wanted to save a couple bucks rather than buying from a bigger brand that’s slightly more expensive and that I knew you had to buy their bags. I assumed this SimpliMagic allowed you to put in regular garbage bags since there is no specific bag code like the other bins out there. However, immediately I noticed that regular trash bags bunch up, fall down, or just don’t stay. Some people have mentioned not using a bag at all which is guess is fine for the recyclables side (make sure to rinse and dry glass and cans well) but it wouldn’t do this for the side with regular trash. Sure, the insert bin pulls out but layers of rotting caked up food in the nooks and crannies of that thing is a no-go for me. Lastly, the design is just kind of weird. It mentions a feature for the lid to stay open. I feel like the quality of the lid opening is then messed up because I did that once and now my lid doesn’t open all the way. Also, it often takes multiple times to get the insert to slide into the correct position for the lids to close. Alas, it’s just a trash bin but it’s a real bummer for the price point that it doesn’t do any of the things that I paid for it to do. If I’d known this, I would have paid more money to buy the original bin that it’s ripping off.

We used it for a couple of days before realizing it was too small for our household. Well built and nice looking product.
