This trashcan, recycling duo is awesome. I love how big the trashcan part of it is, it holds so much. I purchase size 13 gallon trash bags for the trash and just leave the recycling bin as is. The trashcan appearance is very sleek and matches the kitchen well. It’s nice to have the step to open the can instead of opening it with dirty hands. I have been using this for 5 months now and is holding up well.

Loooove this multipurpose trash can. I appreciate that a I can throw away regular trash and recycle in the same bin. It scratches easily so try not to place anything on the top lid.

Love it! Perfect for end of island. Works great & received lots of compliments.

Came delivered in perfect condition, no dings or bent corners. The product came double boxed - perhaps due to the complaints + reviews on Amazon of customers recieving thier EKO's damaged upon arrival they improved the packaging. It's placed just outside my kitchen and the size is ideal; doesn't get in the way while walking to and from the space. There'a a clean minimalist look to it thanks to the metal, with black trimming which keeps it from looking like a bland metal box. The metal itself is matte, which I personally prefer and being anti fingerprint makes it one less thing to wipe down. Overall this lends itself well to kitchens that have stainless steel appliances but will look good in most kitchens. The build quality, for now, is solid. Nothing feels cheap, the pedal has a nice resistance to it which is good for preventing the lid to rise up quick and slap the wall, just nice and simple throughout. Time will tell if it'll holds up after daily use. As much as I like this, I gave it 4 stars for the bin capacity. The bins are slim but fairly tall. Standard 13 gallon garbage bags will fit, but it will stop short of reaching the bottom of the bin. In other words: the bag is suspended up and being held by the bin themselves. Getting the next size up should let the bag "bottom out" in the bin. Overall: A great product from EKO. Yes it's pricy but most dual trash cans are, you're paying for the utility and the build quality which makes this one too consider if you're in the market for one.

We love this! It closes firmly to block any odors from escaping, it easily fits bags for both garbage and recycle items (accommodating bags of a range of sizes for each!), and each compartment's bagful fills up at a carry-able size for those like us with a few years behind us (not too big, not too small... just right! :-) Solid, durable, attractive, a great performer in the kitchen. Thoughtfully conceived and designed.

This is the ideal trash and recycling solution for a small household. It holds about 1–2 days’ worth of waste for my family, which is just right. The lid opens and closes smoothly, and it does an excellent job containing odors—there’s no smell unless the lid is open. It comes with two 8-gallon bins inside, plus a starter pack of 20 8-gallon bags, which was a nice bonus. The bins are easy to lift out when it’s time to change the liners. I especially appreciate the clever little hole inside that lets you tuck in excess bag material—perfect if you’re using slightly larger liners. Just twist and tuck, and the bag stays securely in place. The only downside was that it arrived with a small dent on one side, despite being well-packaged. Thankfully, it’s on the side facing the wall, so it’s not a dealbreaker for me. Overall, this trash/recycle can is sleek, functional, and thoughtfully designed. Highly recommend!

I like this trash can. Easy to clean.

This is absolutely the exact same can that is sold as the Rubbermaid Dual Stream Step-on. I know, because I replaced that Rubbermaid model with this one after the lid broke. So, I can tell you that the can is mostly good - the trash side bin is big enough, and the recycling side is acceptable, but could be better. The downside is going to be the same issue that plagues the Rubbermaid (as it's clearly the same model): the lid will eventually snap and break. There is a LOT of stress put on the plastic around the screw holes that hold the lid on. Over time, that plastic weakens and it snaps. It took nearly 3 years for the Rubbermaid to break, so I'm hoping this one lasts at least that long. I limped it along an extra month by JB Welding the cracked portions and reinforcing it with an old credit card, but it eventually failed again, necessitating it's replacement. I picked the "EKO" brand because it was half the price, and I thought from the pictures that it looked remarkably similar. That hunch was correct. You can even compare the plastic extruding marks between the two and they are the same. The Rubbermaid doesn't have the spot for the charcoal filter, but you can see in the plastic an outline where that part can be molded into the lid. The bins are the same, just different colors. Same holes in the bins to hold the bags, same metal handle on the recycling side. So, if you want the RM one, you might as well just buy this one and save the money.
