apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Yes, please hurry up and get over here to the states. me wantee. Two of 'em!

I really like the idea, although I'd prefer a rectangular/oval shape so that it could lay flush beside a vertical surface.

We use grocery bags as trash can liners, but we're living with the eyesore of seeing the trashbag poke over the top. I dislike the trash cans that just have a hiding lip b/c it's a pain to stuff the grocery bag underneath the lip. This seems like an easier-to-use solution.

I love it!

i wanna buy this right now...it's so perfect for what i've been looking for...can you alert us when it becomes available?

I can see using this on the kitchen counter during food prep.

about time someone designed for the grocery bag liner.

I love this and I need it...but will it encourage me to keep getting plastic bags at the grocery store?

that's partly a rhetorical question since I need them anyway for cat litter, and I buy plastic garbage bags for the kitchen. So I guess it's better not to do the latter and keep getting the plastic bags at the grocery....until they start charging me for them.

life in the 21st C. So fraught with decisions.

I want this for my kitchen.... love it!

What a great idea. I'm with ami, too bad there isn't a rectangular version.

Love it, but I am also moving away from getting the plastic bags, especially now that Whole Foods is phasing them out. I am gong to start buying Seventh Generation recycled plastic bags, so I will be looking for a new can.

Hey hey hey, now this is a great design. I never use bags in my trash bins because they are unsightly but now, I can use a bag!! Oh joy, oh rapture!

i love these....but would want one with a lid

Second the lid idea--to keep the cats out.

Please, please alert us when these are available in the US. My mom has a trash can in every room of her beautiful house with grocery bags in them. It looks awful. This would make a great gift for her.

I've always used old plastic bags as trash bags... it doesn't look great, but it's been efficient. And trash mostly gets stowed under the counters...

Is there a solution to actually disposing of garbage without using plastic bags (purchased, recycled or otherwise?). I've been stumped because no alternative seems sanitary; but these days, lots of markets are phasing out the plastic (which is great for the environment) and I've been using reusable shopping bags, but sometimes, I just get them anyways, because how the heck do you get rid of garbage in a eco-sensitive manner?

And, I do recycle everything I can and keep garbage down to a minimum; so, as a result, of course, the stuff in the trash is the really nasty stuff you just need to get rid of. Enough said, eh?

genius!

this is great, even if you don't use them with grocery bags, necessarily. it could be used with any of the eyesore hefty/glad bags. can't wait 'til they become available.

I must have this!

my cat likes to lick and bite down on the bags i use for my current living room bin. if i don't load the bag correctly, he gets a hold of it and yanks it from the bin and licks away. A cute but naughty habit!

this exists...but isn't very attractive:

OXO used to make a rectangular one called the cover can, in grey or white. Amazon still has some for $24.99.

This is an awesome little product. As soon as I'm in my new place I'm buying one.

This is very similar to the trash can that was part of the Philippe Starck line for Target several years ago.
