Review: High Quality Item Solves Recycling Problem With Elegance and Simple Design - I feel this is a high quality item. The bin was packaged well and did not require any assembly. It looks good in any kitchen and is a high end option compared to just having paper grocery bags on the floor filled with recycling. The individual bins are sturdy and can be hosed down if need be. Lid actuation is smooth and the entire bin can be easily wiped down. A great item for all your recycling needs.
Review: I love it! - I use compostable bags. I tie it around the opening of the bin and under the metal handle; the metal handle is accessible for easy removal. The bins fit perfectly and the trash can closes fine with the bags on. The bags are thin so they don’t bulge when tied. They stay put until we pull them out. The bins are on the smaller side, but I like it because it minimizes indoor waste and smells. The trash can is easy to use; step-on pedal. Each bin has a handle for easy transport. Easy to clean.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the dimensions of each individual compartment?  Would a standard size brown grocery bag fit?**
A: Each Compartment is 10"x6" at the opening and 20" deep.  You could NOT fit a brown paper bag in it. The trash can is really great though.

**Q: Does someone know if the simplehuman custom bags fit these well? If so which is the right size?**
A: We actually use this 3 can step & sort only for compost & the 13 gallon food waste bags fit perfectly.  I do not know anything about the simplehuman custom bags, but 13 gallon is the right size.  You will definately want to get the big rubber bands made specifically to hold the garbage bags "up" or they will fall in no matter what size bag you use.  We also have the 2 can step & sort for regular garbage & the "tall kitchen" garbage bags (13 gal) also fits that one.  Hope this helps you.

**Q: how tall is it with lid open. want to place under a shelf that is 34" high**
A: The lid comes to 33.5 inches. My counter is 35.5 inches high and then accounting for the width of the cabinet, this only gives me about a half inch of space between the lid and the underneath of the counter.

**Q: Soft close?**
A: This model does not have soft close.

Fits perfectly in my space. Hard to find liner bags that work confortably; either too big or not strong enough!
