An excellent bin and just what I wanted. However, I have rated it as only 4 star because the Brabantia PerfectFit bin liners that are made to fit this bin are ridiculously overpriced. The Amazon price for this bin has risen from £17 to £21.47 since I bought it. Although not a pedal operated bin (which I did not want, as I do not have it on the floor), the lid is very easy to open and as it opens to just over vertical, it stays up when opened. I use it for fruit & vegetable peelings and the PerfectFit bin liner stays in position when the bin is emptied (unlike my old bin, which used generic bin liners, that were no a perfect fit and the bin liner would fall out and invert itself when emptied, so very messy), so it is easy and not too messy to empty.

We use the 12L bin as a compost caddy, i.e. to temporarily store compostable kitchen waste before taking out to the garden. We found the usual size of compost caddy a bit on the small size as we eat a lot of fruit and veg and also make fresh juices. We were worried that the 12L bin might be a little on the large size for this but you don't HAVE to fill it right to the top and even if you do it's not too heavy and the handle is more than up to the task of carrying it out. Worries unfounded, the size is perfect.The bin is made of a quality plastic with a matt/satin finish and looks very nice in the pastel blue colour. The lid easily lilfts completely off and the Brabantia 12L liners fit perfectly inside (a few of these are included with the bin). There is an option to mount it on the wall with the included bracket. This looks very sturdy and functional, but I can't comment fully as we had nowhere suitable to mount it so it just sits on the floor where the last caddy once sat.In short, very happy with the purchase and glad we chose Brabantia.

Love this little food caddy which is so smart I have it sitting next to the sink making it easy to chuck food bits in. Lid shuts well so no smells! Takes a surprising amount of stuff for its size.

Big capacity, holding my council's bags. Looks nice. Flat lid and base so can stack. Good eco credentials on cradle to cradle. Decent warranty.But it's a bit flimsy v Addis and doesn't fit together as well. Nor is it easy to clean. My brabantia rotary fairer is bullet proof. And very functional. It's a surprise that this is style and some functionality, rather than the complete package. I also have the larger bins and the same is true of them.

I love these bins, at last I've found the perfect bin. There's no mechanical bits on it to get broken or food stuck in it. The lid hides the Perfect fit bags ( which are a bit pricey). They are really neat and compact, but fit alot in. I have bought these bins in all sizes for both waste and recycling. They have a useful handle to carry it if needed. Somebody has really thought about this when designing it. I hope they start making them in more colours. I know it's a little sad to say, but I love my bin 😊

Good simple design which is pleasing but unobtrusive , well made good quality item,

Size is spot on for where I need it, brilliant quality, sturdy, has a carry handle for ease to get to the main bin due to possible bin liner fails. Looks great too

The ex destroyed my decent swing lid, so I bought this one as a replacement. It's a decent bin. I like this brand, they make good stuff.

This aesthetically looks nice and NEVER smells! It’s easy to wipe down, open, leave open, and remove compost bags. I would highly recommend it.

I needed an easy and way to keep my recycling separated. My pantry is tiny so it also needed to be cute enough to be out in public. This fits the bill, looks good and lets me do good for the planet!

Buen material y adecuado diseño. Funciona muy bien como basurero orgánico.

Thrilled to have found this. I purchased 2, one to hold store plastic bags to repurpose, and one for recycling. The sz is compact. the thinness is what makes it compact to use in my camp park model where storage has to be creative! The lid is easy to flip up, the color neutral enough to fit into any color decor.

Fits in a small space to collect food waste
