Black Matte trash can
Love these trash cans…this one is replacing our brushed nickel 55L. It did get a nick in it which we were able to fix with a sharpie…hopefully that was a fluke as I really like the black matte

The can and bags are
The can and bags are larger and heavier than is comfortable for me. I prefer 13 gallon trash bags that do not work in your trash can. I will not be able to handle more than 13 gallons worth of trash.

Loving this can
Yes it’s pricy but my can is out in the open. No place to tuck it away in my kitchen. I splurged after two years of wanting a new can. I could not be happier.

Great trash can that is very user friendly
It is fantastic. I especially like the width of the opening which makes it easy to throw things away without anything falling out the side.

White 55L Rectangular Step can
Disappointed that the lid is not white. In the AR view it has a white lid. No photo of the lid on the website to show it wasn’t white. Just ruins the elegance of the SH product.

Best Trash Cans Ever
This is my third Simple Human trash can and I absolutely love them. Not only is their functionality unmatched but they last forever! You must get the bags with them. They fit perfectly and are much sturdier than traditional store bought brands.

Excellent quality trashcan
Very pleased with the overall quality of this can. Well-made, durable and sturdy stainless steel shell that holds a lot more than my previous scan of the same size. Love that you can fit it with the appropriate sized bag and the bag is easy to slip on and lift out. Foot pedal is soft underfoot and the top lid lifts silently and with minimal effort. Very happy w this purchase.

Absolute Genius
In these times I am reminded of the Progressive Insurance commercials about 'Parentamorphosis or 'becoming your parents'. Upon receiving this incredibly designed and aesthetically brilliant receptacle, I was shook with excitement. I displayed it proudly in the driveway while peacocking to the neighbors of what was about to be in my kitchen. Heads were turning, nods of sincere approval and high fives were plentiful. Shortly after, my kids arrived home from school and were immediately taken through the tutorial: Shown the brilliance, the design, the functionality and were truly amazed. However, their amazement was at how proud and excited I was over what they see as a 'trash can'. Kids have no appreciation for the finer things. I carefully placed the replacement cartridge in it's place. . . LIKE A GLOVE, it fit so perfectly. I then placed the first Simple Human CodeQ custom liner into the magnificent stainless steel receptacle and my heart sang with how snug the drawstring wrapped around the peak of the can. It was like two old friends hugging. I then placed the Simplehuman Odorsorb Pod into it's rightful place on the inside lid and felt accomplishment. It was complete. The masterpiece was finished. I closed the top lid and just stood and gazed at how the lip of the top of the can wraps around to hide the custom liner at the top. It stands proudly as the focal point in our kitchen. Something that everyone is shown as part of a house tour and will forever live in infamy as the best receptacle on the street! Forever yours, Travis

Best purchase
Best garbage can ever. It’s a little pricey but you can’t find this perfect size anywhere else! I got the black matte and was way too excited when opening it! It’s beautiful! Never loved a can so much!

Best trash can ever
Our first Simplehuman trash can (same model) broke after 7 years of service. There IS a design flaw on the bottom of the mechanism that lifts the lid. Despite that, we bought another. It is (mostly) well designed and works exactly as one would desire.

America's Test Kitchen is right
Worth every penny. Easy, fast and simple to use over and over again and again. I'm actually enjoying changing the trash bag because it's so much easier than my last trash can.
