simplehuman 40L (20/20) Slim Butterfly Recycling Double Kitchen Pedal Bin, Strong Steel Pedal, Silent Soft Close Lid, Inner Buckets, Fingerprint-Proof, Brushed Stainless Steel CW2017

I was looking for a new kitchen bin and already knew of the reputation of Simplehuman. After a little research I quickly decided to invest in the 30L butterfly pedal bin. Arriving quickly I was surprised at how compact the unit is (smaller than I expected in comparison to the photo's however for me this is not a negative) I was so pleased to see that the stainless steel finish truly is finger print proof! I really do not like stainless steel products as it marks and scratches so easily and is a nightmare to keep clean. Thankfully this is not something I need to worry about with this bin! The bin itself is very smart and discreet and you really can see the quality in every aspect. The unit is lightweight yet robust and easy to handle. The bin is functional as the butterfly lids allow full access to the can (unlike my previous Typhoon Capsule pedal bin which had a tiny opening making it difficult to scrape plates etc) I like the way in which smaller details have been thought of such as the soft close function and how you can prop the lids open for longer use and bag changes. There is even a built in rest enabling you to tilt the plastic bucket at an angle allowing for easier bag changes. I have also purchased the Simplehum can liners and will continue to do so. They fit perfectly and ensure no liner is seen when the lids are closed. Not only that but they are strong and well constructed with reinforced seams and useful tie handles. I am the kind of person who will invest in a quality item and if you are looking for a new kitchen bin that will not only function perfectly and look great in your kitchen then look no further; you've just found it!

My bin was delivered this morning, it is absolutely beautiful & perfect too. Very well made & a bag of bin liners included which I wasn't expecting so nice surprise. Looks very smart in our bathroom. Quite a lot of money for a bin but definitely worth it and it has a 10 year warranty. I am very pleased with my purchase. I can certainly recommend Simple Human.

we needed to upgrade in the kitchen and really searched for a quality smallish bin, this one is superb. Not cheap but well worth it. Well made, foot operated, fits in a small space, closes itself slowly - no noise.

The best bins you can buy. My last Simplehuman lasted 15 years and we only changed it as the shape did not fit the new property bin location, they are solid made out of premium stainless and may be expensive however they are made to last.

It looks as good as a bin can, it is beautifully finished, the silent, cushioned mechanism wows every time I press the pedal... no hideous metallic clang! Its useful deep but narrow shape perfectly fits the space I have in the kitchen and provides loads of rooms for days of kitchen rubbish (as well as anything else anyone wants to jetisson when passing—kitchen bins can fill fast!). It is also very convenient to empty—especially if you use the Simplehuman bags). This is actually the second of these we have owned. Its near-identical predecessor did a fantastic job for 20 years but, being the painted version, eventually became a little too scratched by the children and the hinge finally dislocated—after about 70,000 pedal presses! There is no cooler bin to have. It may be a little pricey but it's worth every penny.

This is a pricey bin but well worth it. Sturdy, well balanced and heavy enough to stay in place - no sliding around and marking walls. Just one quick step opens it for long enough for most throw-in jobs, but you can keep it open for as long as you need it. Opens and closes silently Very easy to replace the bags and to keep it clean. Does everything that a bin should and does it very well. It looks good too. Much, much better than any other bin that I ever had.

This bin is excellent for the space I have - it fits and opens under the counter but is not so low that I have to bend to use it. It is quite large but has a slim profile so doesn't dominate and there's enough room to get a good quantity of both rubbish and recycling into each bin. A wheel at the back would be useful as it's slightly cumbersome to move. The bin bags provided (10) fit well and are sturdy. I am very pleased with the bin but would note that it came with a dent in the side (annoyingly, the side that is visible in the room!). The packaging wasn't damaged at all and the bin was well protected within the box so I can only assume, as other reviewers have commented, that this dent happened in the factory and that it was sent out like that. I'm not going to return it because it seems likely that any replacement might also be dented and it is largely a cosmetic fault. However, this is an expensive item and it should be in perfect condition when sent out and I'm disappointed. I've only had it a week so can't speak to its durability but the only bin to have survived the staff room in my workplace for more than a year is a simplehuman one so I have hopes that this one will last a long time.

Great design. We have the 30ltr capacity. With the butterfly lid you can keep it under a worktop and have plenty of room to use it.

Excellent product at a great price. Fast delivery. Great communication

El contenedor de basura es elegante, práctico, se ve de calidad! Super útil para espacios reducidos donde poner un bote es además de útil, hasta decorativo. Y su sistema de cierre de la tapa, genial, no se azota y cierra poco a poco! Vale el precio pagado.

Buen tamaño y funcionalidad

Bello esteticamente... di ottima qualità....funzionale.... peccato un' ammaccatura laterale... dovrebbero proteggerlo di più nell'imballo....

E' un oggetto molto bello a vedersi, non sembra nemmeno un secchio della spazzatura. Elegante il meccanismo di apertura ad ali del coperchio, comodissima l'apertura a pedale quando si hanno le mani occupate. Semplice da pulire e semplice anche da cambiare il sacchetto dell'immondizia. Costicchia un po' però se uno vuole inserirlo in un ambiente elegante e moderno sono tutti soldi ben spesi.
