Keep a low profile.
At last—a trash bin that’ll fit in even the teensiest of bathrooms. It has a slim, rectangular shape so it can hop into any nook (even that gap between the tub and sink). It’s a real tidy-upper too, since it steps open, no hands needed, then keeps rubbish under wraps with the lid on top. And when it’s time to empty? Let the trusty handle on the back lead the way.

almost the perfect solution
I LOVE the shape, the lid, the sleek overall presence of this waste bin. And the price! Incredibly reasonable. I just wish it were a tad bit larger. Yes, I know, it's for a small space, but it's just not quite right. It will do for now, until the maker produces one that is maybe half again the size. Fingers crossed.
Perfect and tiny
The wastebin is tiny, which is perfect for my similarly tiny bathroom. I needed to utilize all the storage space possible for toiletries under my sink. So finding a cute, tiny, closed bin for next to the toilet was serendipitous. I do think it’s overpriced, though it fit my specific needs and seems decently sturdy so overall happy with it.
Perfect for our tiny bathroom
I have been looking for a slim and compact trashcan with a step/cover to fit between our sink and toilet for years. I bought a Simple Human trashcan but it was too bulky and the metal cover hit the bottom of our toilet every time so needed a replacement.
I also appreciate the thoughtful design. There is a convenient removable inner square piece that nicely tucks in/holds your trash bag so you don't have to see the trash bag when the lid is closed.
