Slim Open Can, 10L Brushed Stainless Steel
Last verified by the Lifetime Picks Editorial Team
Why we picked it
Slim 11.3 by 6.2 inch footprint fits tight spots a wider can cannot
This is the simplehuman slim open-top trash can, a 10 liter (2.6 gallon) brushed stainless can sized to tuck into a bathroom corner, a hallway, or beside a desk where a wider can would be in the way. With an 11.3 by 6.2 inch footprint it stays out of foot traffic, and the open top means there is no lid to push or step on, so you just drop and go. The body is heavy-gauge stainless steel with a brushed finish that hides fingerprints, and a removable inner liner rim lifts straight off for bag changes while hiding the liner edge so it does not show over the top. simplehuman builds this can to a commercial standard for hotels and offices, so it is overbuilt for a home bathroom, and it is ADA-compliant for accessible spaces. It is designed for simplehuman code R custom-fit liners, though a standard small bag also works. Backed by a 5-year warranty.
