Sterilite 13 Gal. White TouchTop Wastebasket

Latch is defective so top continually opens on its own. Product top will not stay closed

This was given to me about 8 or 9yrs ago as a Christmas present for my new apartment. I still have it, however yesterday the lid slipped out of my hand and it broke, hoping I can order another lid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 13-gallon touch top wastebasket is amazing! The touch lid opens effortlessly with just a tap, which makes throwing away trash quick and hygienic. It’s roomy enough for a busy kitchen or office, and the modern design fits perfectly with my decor. Sturdy, easy to clean, and no more smudges on the lid. Highly recommend!

Where can I get a new lid? The spring is missing on mine.

Unfortunately, the touch top broke after a few uses

When I bought this, I was happy as it functioned easily and quietly. However shortly after the grey latch part stopped working. I have been looking unsuccesfully for a replacement lid and came across these reviews. I wish I saw them before I bought it, because now Im stuck with a non functioning bin because of the lid!! Im disappointed

we have this and when you put the bags in it ,so far 3 sides on top cracked JUNK

good product with the exception the the tops break, have had 2 one the front latch broke and the other the back mechanism broke - cannot find a replacement top with buying a whole new unit

had it for three years, its holding up well. washes up nicely( THE LID ESP) , DOG HAS KNOCKED IT OVER, AND NO HARM DONE...

Only item l have ever purchased which is actually going to last multiple lifetimes.

When we built a new house 18 years ago, I searched for a wastebasket with a top to fit in the cabinet under my kitchen sink. This 13 gallon is the right size to hold a lot of waste and yet fit into the area I need. The touch top is so convenient; I just open the cabinet door and gently touch the opener and the lid raises quietly and quickly. I have enjoyed using this product for many years and look forward to continued use for many more. It's long-lasting and attractive. Thank you Sterilite for this perfect product for me.

I love the feature of touch top opening! These products are durable, easy to clean and look good in my kitchen. I will continue to use Sterlite products as long as they are around!!

Grey latch broke shortly after purchase. Turns out I should have researched trashcans before my purchase as the latch breaking on this can is a very common complaint. Sterilite - Stop making this trashcan or improve your quality.

I am very happy with my purchase of the 13 Gallon TouchTop Wastebasket. It makes it so much easier to just touch the buttons to open the top & throw out your trash. This is perfect sized for my kitchen, fitting very easily under the desk, or in the pantry as well. I love how the glad trash bags fit perfectly in here, and it keeps the foul smelling odors at bay by having the touch to close feature. I would indeed recommend.

I bought this wastebasket last year and I have to say I’m very satisfied and pleased with my purchase. It keeps the trash and its odor contained and the design is simple yet stylish. I would buy another one if needed without even thinking twice, great product

We have two of these waste baskets. One is in the kitchen, the other in a storage area. They are a useful size for almost anywhere, as they don't have to be emptied often unless it is necessary due to contents. The only problem we had is that the latches on these broke very easily and since the stores do not carry only tops, I wrote to Sterilite. They were very helpful and told me that latches ARE a replaceable item! They were kind enough to send me replacements for both baskets and these new latches seem to be much sturdier and are working out well. Thank you, Sterilite! (The only reason I gave 4's on Durability & Quality was because of the latches.) Problem solved!

The plastic parts in the catch, both upper and lower, have broken....The "T" spearpoint part snaped off, and the catch wing onnthe keft side slowly sheared at the hingpoint making the whole thin unservicable to hold the lid down against spring pressure. I looked for replacement parts and could find none...
