Simple Human Trash Cans

Are they really worth the money??

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have one and I hate it...so I vote no! OXO has one I like- not as "pretty" as far as trash cans go, but better. I just can't bring myself to throw out an expensive trash can even though I hate it.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I LOVE mine.

the garbage bag never falls into it and you dont have to see the ends peeking out of the top.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I don't own one but this weekend I was at my cousins new condo and they just got a Simple Human.

Honestly, its a lovely trash can but I have the Oxo and couldn't really tell the difference.

HTH

Oxo - got it at Linens and Things with 20% off coupon

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

we have this one by brabantia:

I love it! It was pretty expenisve but we got 20% off from bed bath and beyond. I think it is similar to the simple human ones.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have a SH one and it just eh... I don't buytheir bags, I just use normal bags in it. Not worth spending the money IMO.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

Thanks for the other suggestions!!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have a simplehuman and I buy the bags. I like that the bags fit perfectly and you don't see it when the trash can is closed (MIL even pointed this out - haha). I got it with the 20% off coupon at BBB.

I did comment to DH that I though it was alot of $$$ for the can. I might buy a different one if I coudl go back in time and save some $$$

Me too.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

It's OK. But check out Home Goods because they have a selection of the stainless step on ones for really cheap!!!!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I found the simple human cans not to be space conscious. I have one that takes up less room in my kitchen and works just fine.

Also, it's a garbage can..how much am I really spending on this?

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

We have one and its fine. I use regular bags but also sometimes buy the SH bags using the BBB coupons.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have a Brabantia trash can and its pretty good..as far as trash cans go really!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I say no. There are other similar models made by other companies that are less expensive.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have the under the sink one, and love it. For two people, it's plenty big too.

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

We have one and we LOVE it but it's not worth the money. There are a lot of other brands that make the same styles but cost less.

We got ours when it first came out because we have an 90lb Lab who likes to knock over garbage cans so it's was worth the money to have a dog proof can. No more mess and no worrying that we'll end up paying for surgey if he gets into the trash....

ME THREE!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have one and I love it!!!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

We have the butterfly one and it's totally worth it.

We got the bags too because of the shape.

It feels weird to say I love a trashcan, so let's just say I have a major crush on it!!

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I have a Simple Human dish rack thingy and I think its HOT as far as dishrack attractiveness goes! they had the at my Costco for a while...

Re: Simple Human Trash Cans

I got one as a shower gift off my registry and returned it. it was pretty challenging to put a trash bag inside and I wasn't about to pay so much $ for the special bags they require. IMO, not worth it at all! I ended buying an OXO trash can for $40 ($32 w/a B,B&B coupon) and its great!
