I had a $50 coupon, so the cost was not as great, but after receiving the trash can, I would have paid full price for it. It looks nice. The lid works great. The band around the top and the bag holder are a tremendous asset. The white color is much better than the stainless ones that leave fingerprints. This was a very good choice.

I bought mine last year when we remodeled our kitchen and it is still working great and looking fine! Smooth operation, never a fight with can when pulling trash full trash bag out! Keeps odors in and cat out! Love it !

We bought this trash can looking for one that would keep a bag in place. The mechanism in this can definitely does that and I do love that feature. HOWEVER the lid is FAR from silent when closing(BAM!) and now, after time, often gets stuck on the rim when opening with the foot pedal, making you have to use your hand to lift it open. I know that doesn't sound like a big deal, but when you spend the money to get a hands free opening feature, it'd be nice if it actually worked!!! We called the company when we first bought it and they were very nice (she actually gasped when I let her hear the "silent" closing of the lid) and replaced the can not once but twice -- but they all did the same thing. I decided to just keep it because we do like the stay-put bag feature, and I didn't really NEED a silent close, but after a year now it hardly EVER opens without my hand and I really wish my trash can actually opened when I stepped on the pedal! I have had guests try to open my can and say "Is this locked or something?" My husband constantly reminds me of how much I spent for a trash can that doesn't open. For that reason, despite the great bag holding feature, I don't think I'd recommend this product to others.

I like the hands-free design. The linkage between the foot pedal and the lid seems a little loose (and a bit flimsy) but works ok so far. The trash can has a thin metal exterior with a plastic inner liner that you can pull out to dump the trash. We use tall kitchen trash bags with tie ends and it's a little awkward getting them installed so the tie ends don't hang outside the can. Might try the bags with draw strings and see if that helps. Item arrived in excellent condition. For the price, I expect this trash can to last AT LEAST ten years. Anything less than that and I won't be sending hugs & kisses to OXO.

My wife & I purchased the OXO almost two years ago; we have used and maintained it with extraordinary care. It was our hope that it was well constructed and with proper use & care, the Can would last for some time. Not the case, a couple of weeks ago, the foot control opener mechanism, which is partially constructed of plastic, with a metal rod, broke (small black bar)after nearly two years...we now have to open can by hand. We purchased the OXO because it was purportedly well-made and would last at least five (5) years...unfortunately, this has not been the case. We are disappointed and feel it simply was not worth the price. Certainly in this case OXO did not live up to its reputation as a quality product. We're appealing for a replacement because we feel strongly that OXO ought to stand behind its product! Disappointed reired MD & spouse!!!(:)

The can arrived quickly and was as pictured. 10 gal is just right, not too small or too large. Because the item was refurbished, it had a slight dent on the side, which was described on the site as minor cosmetic damage, and which I would agree with. I might try hammering it out from the inside later. The step pedal is very responsive and opens all the way, which is really convenient when your hands are full.

This is a very attractive trash can with a large holding capacity and a quiet closing mechanism. I would recommend this to anyone.

It is totally worth the money! It looks great, is easy to use, easy to clean, you don't have to see the sloppy-looking bag, etc. It really is the perfect trash can for a kitchen. And my dog can't get into it! (Smart dogs would probably figure out how to press down on the pedal and open the lid. My dog? Not so bright.)

I like the size of the can, the way it opens smoothly, and the color (white). I don't like the way the hinge on the back of the cover juts out, so the can doesn't go flush against the wall. But the thing I hate is the way the can shifts when you put your foot on the pedal. After a few times opening and closing, it's a foot away from the wall.

Trash can did not fit close to wall due to a protrusion on the lid's back. The trash can bottom was not equipped to secure its balance, when opening and closing.
