simplehuman Rectangular Step Trash Can, Fingerprint-Proof Brushed Stainless Steel, 25 Liters /6.5 Gallons

Made of durable stainless steel, this rectangular 6-1/2-gallon waste can makes for a nice addition to any kitchen or office. Its lid opens by stepping on the solid-steel platform pedal--convenient 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. A simple slide switch allows for keeping the lid open for longer chores. Other highlights include an integrated toe kick for easier access to the pedal, a nonskid base to keep the can steady, a completely flat hinge so the unit can fit flush against the wall, and a fingerprint-proof finish that decreases smudges and keeps the steel looking shiny and new. In addition, the can offers a dent-proof plastic inner bucket and a smartbucket bag-change system that eliminates messy bag overhang and makes it easier to take out the trash. The waste can measures 12-1/2 by 15-4/5 by 17-4/5 inches (33-2/5 inches with the lid open) and carries a 10-year limited warranty.

strong Go ahead, turn this can upside down. You'll see there's a solid steel beam that runs from the tip of the pedal all the way to the back of the can for maximum durability. How durable? Well, we've tested our pedals to last over 150,000 steps--that's more than 20 steps a day for 20 years.   silent No more clangs, bangs or lids slamming shut. This step can is equipped with our patented lid shox technology to control the motion of the lid for a slow, silent close.
