Its slim design fits tight spaces, while integrated wheels and a handle offer easy mobility. Perfect for busy, modern kitchens, it offers a hygienic, quiet, and spill-proof waste solution backed by a 5-year warranty. ## Description Made of durable fingerprint-resistant plastic, this 10-1/2-gallon waste can provides an array of convenient features not normally found in a plastic can. Its lid opens by stepping on the steel-accented pedal--great for when your hands are full or you want to keep them clean and germ-free. Then, instead of slamming shut, its lid shox technology uses air-suspension shocks to close the lid in a slow, quiet, controlled manner. The lid can also be kept open if need be--simply push it back past 90 degrees. For safety, the waste can offers an easy-to-use slide lock that locks the lid shut, preventing spills and messes when curious kids and pets are around. Other highlights include a slim, narrow shape that fits well in tight spots in the kitchen or office, plus an integrated handle and rolling wheels, which fit flush with the body of the can, for easily moving it around without sacrificing space. The waste can measures 19-1/5 by 10-1/5 by 25-1/5 inches (42-2/7 inches with the lid open) and carries a five-year limited warranty. Review: Three Stars - Seems smaller than envisaged Review: Great value, long lasting - The item arrived packaged well and on time or early. Assembly was very easy. This is a robust well made bin. No sharp edges or hazards that I can see. The surface texture is nice to the touch and the thickness of the plastic is more than adequate. It has a look and feel of quality. The bin stands very steady even when the edal is activated. I anticipate that it will last for a long time and I would buy it again. ## Features - With Pedal ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004L9L42O | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,067,429 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #12,218 in Waste & Recycling | | Brand | simplehuman | | Brand Name | simplehuman | | Capacity | 40 litres | | Colour | black | | Country Of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 14,779 Reviews | | Finish Type | Plastic,Steel | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00838810005782, 00838810012766 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 47.2L x 25.7W x 63.2H Centimeters | | Item Shape | Rectangular | | Item Weight | 2.8 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | simplehuman | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Opening Mechanism | Step-On | | Recommended Uses For Product | Kitchen | | Room Type | Kitchen | | Special Features | With Pedal | | UPC | 838810012766 838810005782 636501848812 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 5-year. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** simplehuman - **Capacity:** 40 litres - **Colour:** black - **Material:** Plastic - **Opening Mechanism:** Step-On ## Images ![simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can, Black Plastic Bin With Secure Slide Lock - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71O8A0jRC7L.jpg) ![simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can, Black Plastic Bin With Secure Slide Lock - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41fBrAbZexL.jpg) ![simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can, Black Plastic Bin With Secure Slide Lock - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41lcQLghOKL.jpg) ![simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can, Black Plastic Bin With Secure Slide Lock - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41euDiTwUIL.jpg) ![simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Step Trash Can, Black Plastic Bin With Secure Slide Lock - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/419GxsWJvXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Three Stars *by F***H on 15 November 2016* Seems smaller than envisaged ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value, long lasting *by A***R on 16 April 2026* The item arrived packaged well and on time or early.
