Honey-Can-Do 50L Soft Close Stainless Steel Trash Can: Pedal-Operated Kitchen Bin, 13 Gallon, Manual Lift, Silver

Working in the kitchen requires a lot of coordination. Whether it’s prepping for or cleaning up from a meal, kitchens are an all-hands-on-deck space. So if something can be made hands-free, it’s an upgrade worth taking. The hands-free operation of this stainless steel trash can means tossing potato peels or scraping off plates doesn’t require balance or acrobatics, but just a simple step on a foot pedal. When it’s time to take the trash outside, a removable plastic liner bucket prevents catastrophic tears to thin plastic waste bags. And the can’s smooth square stainless steel design fits in well with most contemporary kitchens.
