5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Trashcan, January 14, 2008

(REAL NAME)   
I would have never believed that an expensive (more than ) trash can would be worth it - after all it just needs to hold the trash. But after waking up to find the dog tipping over the trash can and shredding the bags, we decided we needed a change. After some research and testing we found this trash can and have had it for the last few months and really appreciated it.

*This is a great trash can, that we think will be worth its price over the many years we plan to use it.
*It is heavy enough to not be tipped over, but easy to pick up and move when it is in our way.
*The plastic inside liner bin in a nice touch which makes cleanup easy while keeping the bag/liners out of sight.
*The opening is large enough for a gallon-sized milk container or a pizza box, so we no longer just stack those next to the trash can.
*The no-slamming controlled closing of the cover make it quiet and easy to use.
*The mechanism to open the doors is solid, responsive, and looks to be well made.
*The exterior & interior is easy to clean and keep looking sharp.
*Normal tall kitchen garbage bag liners fit well, saving on expensive trash can liners
*The lids can lock in the open position which makes it easy when we are cooking and need to dump lots of things, such as onion peels, chili stems, etc.
*The dog has tried and FAILED to get into the trash, tip the can over, or otherwise have an extra meal from the trash.

So, I know that this trash can is expensive, but I think it is will be a worthwhile investment for you and provide all the joy that a trash can could ever provide. It certainly eliminated many annoyances we had (and some we did not even realize we had) with our previous trash containments and not introduced any new ones. A clearly well thought out, well engineered product that should eventually be in every home!

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Can, But Scratches Floor, November 28, 2010
This review is from: simplehuman Butterfly Step Trash Can, Fingerprint-Proof Brushed Stainless Steel, 38 Liters /10 Gallons (Kitchen)
I'm surprised this can is getting only top reviews. It is a good trashcan, but in my opinion there is one fatal flaw. We put this can in our kitchen, on our newly finished wood floors (just moved into the house). There had never been anything on the floor before this can. After a few weeks of use, we noticed a long (about 4") scratch on the floor beneath the foot pedal. I turned the can over, and discovered that, amazingly, the underside of the foot pedal has the heads of three large screws sticking out, facing down towards the floor. So every time we stepped on the pedal, or the can shifted a bit, or my husband moved the can while switching out the bag, we were scraping phillips-head screw heads along our oak floor. Unbelievable! I covered the screw heads with masking tape, but I began to get nervous thinking the tape would wear through. So I put a round felt furniture pad on each screw head and it seems we have not added to the floor scratching. So I guess that's the solution: when you unpack your new trash can, be sure to turn it over and install felt furniture pads on the underside of the foot pedal before you use it. Small price to pay for a nearly 0 trash can that looks pretty, you say? Perhaps. But if you'll excuse me, now I have to go call our floor crew to see if they can come back and repair our "trashed" wood floor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Legit Trashcan, January 25, 2009
By 
RichW (Alexandria, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: simplehuman Butterfly Step Trash Can, Fingerprint-Proof Brushed Stainless Steel, 38 Liters /10 Gallons (Kitchen)
First review I've ever made on Amazon actually. That should speak volumes to how crucial this TC is.

I'll keep it short: This trashcan is legit. Sturdy and nice looking. The foot-opening mechanism is smooth as butter. The butterfly opening was perfect for my kitchen setup because I didn't have room for a can which would open the lid behind itself. I also have no idea what the earlier guy who reviewed this can was talking about with the bags. Standard 13 gallon GLAD drawstring bags fit snug in the liner. I've yet to find anything wrong with this trashcan yet but if I do I'll update this review. Assume if you don't see an update that I'm still satisfied.
