Lightweight and Practical
Likes:
• The trash can is lightweight and easy to move around.
• Trash bags fit perfectly and stay securely in place without slipping.
Dislikes:
• The lid doesn’t close automatically—you have to manually push it down after opening, which is unusual for a soft-close design.
• The lid tends to get smudged and covered in fingerprints.
• The trash can is lightweight and easy to move around.
• Trash bags fit perfectly and stay securely in place without slipping.

Great for homes with curious pups!
I love this trash can! I have three dogs, who have figured out how to lift the lid of my old trash can. This one doesn't have a lid that sits on top, it's flush with the top, and it has a lock for night time/when I leave during the day for work. It's large enough for my 13 gal trash bags. It's a pretty shape and color. It doesn't easily tip either. I threw out my old ca...

got the wrong product 😕
Got the wrong one, got the step-on instead but it's still a nice trash can. Big enough to fit a lot of recycling even, and also pretty compact for a small space. Overall good.

A great trashcan.
This Rubbermaid trash can is definitely a upgrade from my old one. This one has a quite close lid and holds just enough trash. I like the look of it too.

Durable
I received this compliment from influencer and I love how leaked the design is. I love how durable this trash is. The capacity is amazing. I love the pedal and I love how electric it is very easy for me. I love how waterproof it is. It’s very nice and very cute. It can be fit into style and it has quality.

Long Lasting Durable Trash Can
Rubbermaid trash cans are truly the superior trash cans. I’ve had a few models in my past, from step on trash cans to the automatic ones and all have held up for 10+ years. We actually took an older model of this one out of our laundry room and replaced it with this one and moved the old one to our patio because it’s still perfectly good.

Amazing design
I never knew you could become obsessed with a garbage can. I guess it’s a part of growing older.
This garbage can was easy to put together and it is so sleek looking and it works perfectly because of the tight lid. There is a lot of odor control. It’s only two people in the household. I can get away with changing the garbage every other day. This is a product I would h...

Sister likes it
I sent this to my sister as a wedding gift hahaha she likes it. She said "It's very easy to use and my kitchen doesn't smell anymore since it has a cover. " she's been using it for three weeks and it's still working nicely. She also added, " It's very easy to clean and I don't have to worry if I close the lid since it closes by itself "." Battery life is also very good...

So sleek, well working!
I love the Rubbermaid brand, they never disappoint! Very sleek design, easy to use! In the kitchen hands get dirty often, the hands free make this so easy to use. Very sharp looking to boot!

Rubbermaid trash can
I didn’t receive a sensor trash can as selected. I did receive a plastic step on trash can and it’s great. It’s durable and large 13 gallon size. There’s no sensor.

Nice looking/ sleek
Nice garbage can, I thought it was supposed to be metal and have a sensor lid. That’s why I gave it 4 stars. Other than that it’s a great garbage can. Looks nice and has a nice lid that slowly closes

Sleek and accessible trash can!
*this product did not come with battery inserts. However the trash can works wonderfully with a light kick to the foot pedal. It shuts quietly after releasing your foot from the pedal. I’ve used it for two weeks in my office and I haven’t smelled my lunch garbage! Works very well & appealing.

Great, high-quality trash can.
Durable, sturdy design with large capacity. You can lock the lid open for convenience. When it is unlocked, you can open manually or with the foot pedal. Great, high-quality trash can.

The LID that didn't
Good trash can alone. Add the lid and it becomes useless. Poor design with the lid. Every time I think it is fixed it pops right off or doesn't even open with the next foot pressing it. Not a good product.
