Review: simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Trash Can - I recently upgraded my kitchen with the simplehuman 40 Liter / 10.6 Gallon Slim Kitchen Trash Can, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! This trash can has been a game-changer for my kitchen space, both in terms of functionality and aesthetics. First off, the slim design is perfect for my smaller kitchen. It fits seamlessly against the wall without taking up too much space, which is a huge plus for me. I love how it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb; instead, it adds a sleek, modern touch to my kitchen decor. The foot pedal is incredibly responsive and allows for hands-free operation, which is essential when I’m cooking and my hands are full. I also appreciate the silent close feature—no more loud clangs when the lid shuts! It’s such a simple detail, but it makes a big difference in maintaining a peaceful kitchen environment. Another highlight is the inner bucket, which is easy to remove and clean. It’s also designed to fit simplehuman trash bags perfectly, so there’s no slipping or mess when it’s time to take out the trash. I’ve found the bags to be durable and convenient, making the whole process a lot easier. What surprised me the most is how much it can hold. Even though it has a slim profile, I can fit quite a bit of waste in there, which means fewer trips to take out the trash. The 40-liter capacity is just right for my small household without being too bulky. Overall, the simplehuman Slim Kitchen Trash Can has exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s stylish, practical, and incredibly easy to use. If you're looking for a reliable and aesthetically pleasing trash solution for your kitchen, I highly recommend this product! It’s worth every penny!
Review: The perfect trash can - I own three of these trash cans, they're that good. They're ideal for people with pets because the lid locks. I don't have pets and I still love it. Keeps odors in and doesn't require hands so great for cooking. I've had my other two for 10+ years and they still work as well as this new one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought Again — Great Quality
*by A***Y on April 29, 2026*

I have had this trash can before in black, and it lasted about 4 years. It recently broke where the lid is attached after too much pressure was applied on top, so I decided to purchase the same one again, this time in gray. It looks great and fits well in the kitchen. The quality is solid, and it performs its function very well. The 40-liter size is just right for a family of four. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase.
