Perfect size
This size and set of cans is just what I needed to add a little more organization to our small space. The handles are a nice addition and the plastic seems to be quality, not cheap lightweight stuff that will crack easily. The size is perfect in our small bath and fits under my kiddos' kid-size craft table for catching scrap paper, etc.
Nice product
Elegant. Handle is easy to tip. Well made. I like them a lot. They can easily fit in any house. Not trying to hide this trash can.
Handle broke
First, I only really needed one trash can not two, but I guess I'm glad there are two because the handle broke within two weeks of use.
To be fair, we go through a lot of veggies, and we bought the cans so we could easily transfer veggie scraps from the kitchen to the compost pile. So the cans are probably holding more weight than designed for, but they are trash cans after all. The dainty-ness of the handle cannot handle much weight in the can, so maybe these are best suited for paper or light bathroom type garbage? They are beautiful though!
