Trash Cans

Were in New York City, and the trash is just, you know, SO obnoxious and snobby. After years and years of sending our old SimpleHuman receptacle to therapists, acupuncturists and healers - to no avail - it finally had a breakdown and had to be sent to a quieter suburban household. Poor thing just couldnt handle the intensity of our New York trash... Alas, when we accidentally threw away a Design Within Reach catalog rather than putting it in recycling, we discovered the trash seemed much less on edge and - dare I say - actually pleasant! We deduced that it was the Vipp 16 being shown on one of its pages, and so - preferring AllModerns selections and service, I ordered a beautiful stainless steel version of the Vipp 16, and we havent looked back since. Of course, now our towels want their own LeCorbusier chaise in the bathroom as a towel rack, but theyre going to have to slum it for now. - - - - - back on earth Its pretty. I like its look, and It probably costs what it does because its not made in China. I wish it had the top from the original design (pointier, less of a dome) the rod that connects the lift-lever to the footpad sometimes gets bent so the lid doesnt close properly the steel inner basket could use a breather hole in the bottom so its easier to pull out a fully-stuffed trash bag."..."  Read more

I have a few of these garbage cans, and they're expensive but well worth the investment. Love the black, too!"

Needed a permanent solution for a special needs teen. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: looks great and clean and sanitary, well built, does not absorb smells at all, lid descends slowly, holds as much as familiar plastic brands, easy to toss diaper in, WHEN CLOSED, 100% SEALS OFF SMELL. There simply is no more diaper smell in the room. GONE. Cons: When opening to discard diaper, you're hit with a brief but intense unpleasant odor. Same with changing the bag. (We bought the bags made for this, and fit well they do.) It's pricey, but given the looks and 100% odor locking function, worth it. Could easily be used elsewhere as a stylish trash can. In fact, we immediately ordered a smaller unit for our bathroom!"..."  Read more

I purchased this bin for my moms incontinence problem. It has worked well. The odor from the pads stays in the container. The liners for the bin are very expensive,though."
