Legacy Step-On Can, Red, 12-Gallon

This trash can is more expensive than most other "plastic" cans, but it is worth every penny. (I bought a nifty red one, and it perks up the kitchen.) This can is extremely sturdy--it doesn't flex, when you push in on the sides--and it hold a lot. I don't have to buy special bags for it, either. I buy a box of 30 gallon Glad ForceFlex Plus, because they're strong, and they're available most anywhere. The bag is a little large for the can, so I tie a little knot in one side of the bag's opening to make it smaller. It fits, then, and works great, plus, the bag always stays in place. It never falls into the can, when I put garbage in it, no matter how heavy the items. When the can gets full, and I remove the bag, there is still enough room left to add all the trash from several other small trash cans in other rooms. I chose this can, because it fits under my commercial stainless steel sink with plenty of room left over for the top to flip up. This can came fully-assembled and packed very well. I'm totally satisfied with its quality and with how well it works. I would definitely buy this item, again.

OK it is a trash can. Opening portion is heavy duty & should last for years to come. Trash can part is Rubbermaid Brute which speaks for itself. A little expensive, but you get what you pay for.

This takes all the odorous body waste and keeps a lid on the odor until I can get rid of the bag. It’s a great help to me.

I saw this at my doctors’ offices and searched and they were pricey. Of course! The quality is very good and I’m happy with it. I didn’t pay full price, I took chances on a returned item which was 50% but it was like brand new! It was still pricey at $40 but I’m happy with it. True to some reviews it’s hard to find the right size it’s a 13 gallon can but the bags that size won’t fit. Buy the commercial 18 gals at Costco and you’ll be good to go.

I really like this trash can. It is sturdy and functional. The only complaint I have is that it is very bulky. It says "slim Jim" but it isn't. Regular trash bags won't fit without a tug-of-war to get them secure. I had to get special bags for the can and now have a lot of regular trash bags that I can't use. Overall, I like the trash can but I prefer something slimmer. I do like the red color, though!

My wife has begun peritoneal dialysis at home. This is the exact same trash can used by the dialysis clinic, and works very well. Rubbermaid makes it a complete mystery as to what bags (liners) to use. The answer is that 18-gallon trash compactor bags fit snugly, caught by the two prongs in back and stretched over the front corners. Since these are available in 2 mil thickness you can get a pretty sturdy bag. We tried 30-gallon bags, and they work, but they are loose and can slip down into the wastebasket. The 18 gallon bags are firmly supported. We chose to go with this model even though there is a newer "Slim Jim" model available. The reviews made the newer model sound less sturdy than this one, which is a tried-and-true design. Home peritoneal dialysis generates a lot of trash, and it is nice to have a robust container for it.

I've been using it for years. I never spent so much on a trash can and remember grumbling that it had better last my lifetime. So far, so good. It's solid, easy to clean and use, and my cats' fave perch, lol.

I would have said no, but clearly I was wrong - I love this can. I purchased it because I wanted a durable can that wasn't totally ugly, and that had a traditional step-on mechanism. While the traditional 13 gallon tall kitchen bags don't fit, I am using a 30 gallon trash bag, which fits fine, and allows me to consolidate trash from other cans around the house when I remove it from the can to take to the dump, and the heavier bags don't leak (nice for my car), so worth the purchase of a larger bag to me. And best of all, the can is well-made, and I expect I will not need to buy a new one for many years!

Lo uso para la basura de la cocina, lo unico que no contemple es que usa bolsas grandes, de alli en fuera todo perfecto en función y como tiene tapa que se cierra por gravedad, evita malos olores en la cocina.

Strong and robust lid function on the bin we ended up using for recycling small enough for the space big enough for the rubbish. Came ready made good value for money.
