Brabantia Step Trash Can

This size is quite small for a primary kitchen trash can and is better suited for a bathroom, vanity, or home office. It works well for light waste like tissues, cotton pads, or paper scraps, but it will fill up quickly with food waste or bulky packaging.

Yes, the lid is engineered to close slowly and silently, preventing the loud 'clanging' sound often associated with metal step cans. It is a subtle feature that makes a noticeable difference in quiet spaces like bedrooms or bathrooms.

The trash can features a removable inner bucket, which makes cleaning straightforward. You can simply lift the bucket out to rinse it in the sink or wipe it down with a damp cloth, keeping the stainless steel exterior clean and smudge-free.

No, it is designed with a non-slip base that provides stability on smooth surfaces. This prevents the can from shifting or scratching your floors when you press the step pedal.

While you can use standard small trash bags, Brabantia often designs their cans to fit their own custom-sized liners perfectly. Using a standard bag is fine, but you may have some excess plastic to tuck around the rim.
