simplehuman 4.5 Liter / 1.2 Gallon Round Bathroom Step Trash Can, Brushed Stainless Steel

Q: I want to use this for (clumped) cat litter waste. Does the top seal well? Trying to keep oder down... Thanks for any replies.

Try BOS bags for odor issues (they're sold here at Amazon search "BOS bags"). Those things are outstanding for cat litter, diaper pails & poo bags for walking the dog. I NEVER smell anything from these bags and I keep the litter can in my kitchen. I know my answer has nothing to do w/ this trash can but I can't help it, I tell everyone about these bags. I love can't live without them. Hope it helps someone.

Q: Amazon lists the dimensions as 10" x 7.6" x 12.1" inches. Yet the can is described as "classic round." How can this be? What's the *diameter*?

the circumference of a circle = 2πr {r = radius}. we know the diameter is 10", therefore the radius is 5". 2π(5") = 31.42". who knows what the 7.6" means.

Q: Diaper pail users: 1 How has it worked with containing odor; 2 Has the plastic liner absorbed the odor, and if so have you been able to get rid of it?

I have been using this for diapers. 1. It's not perfect at containing odors, but it's acceptable for mild-smelling diapers (pee or breastmilk poop). It would not be acceptable for solids-eating baby poop. There is a faint odor near the can when it's opened even with mild-smelling diapers. 2. The plastic liner does get smelly, but it does not seem to absorb odor. A quick wipe down with a Lysol wipe has it smelling nice again when it happens (infrequently). I use this with plastic bags inside, though -- I don't use it with the plastic interior bin only.

Q: does this have a slow closing lid or does it just slam down

Mine is slow closing. It's not super-slow, but it closes quietly without slamming. It's good.

Perfect bathroom size!

Perfect size for our bathroom. Love the foot pedal so you don’t have to use your hands. We had an open top one before and I hated seeing all the trash, now we don’t see it. It actually holds a fair amount of bathroom trash so we only really need to empty it every week or so. The little trash bags it comes with are great too and help with the trash removal. Would definitely recommend!

Good quality trash can. Does its job well.

I buy all SimpleHuman trash cans for the house. They all have good quality and operate as they should. There is a nice sheen that reduces fingerprints and is made with a good gauge steel that will last. It’s great for the bathroom, so I bought a few. Definitely recommended.
