Overview
A 13-gallon rectangular step trash can from Glad with a Clorox-treated lid for odor control, a hands-free foot pedal and interior rings that hold the bag in place.
The odor control lives in the lid material itself rather than a separate filter, so it works for the life of the can rather than needing a cartridge replacement. Interior bag rings are meant to stop a liner from slipping down or overhanging the rim, and the whole unit is plastic rather than metal, which keeps it light and simple to wipe down.
- 13 gallon rectangular capacity
- Clorox-treated lid for ongoing odor protection
- Hands-free foot pedal
- Interior bag rings hold liners in place
Who it's for
Fits a kitchen, office or basement that wants a hands-free step can at a lower price point than a metal alternative, with both 13-gallon and larger 30-gallon bags reported to fit. Not the pick for someone who wants the lid to close on its own after stepping off the pedal, based on what buyers actually experienced.
Pros and cons
- Odor-blocking lid works without a separate filter
- Bag rings keep 13 or 30 gallon liners from slipping
- Ships fully assembled
- Sturdy steel pedal reported by most buyers
- Lid does not spring shut on its own, needs a manual push to close
- One buyer found the pedal stiff and hard to press
- Build consistency varies between units, per one buyer who ordered two
Performance notes
The foot pedal lifts the lid through a lever mechanism rather than a gas spring, which several buyers found responsive and sturdy while at least one found stiff and hard to lift. The lid is designed to stay open once fully depressed rather than spring closed the moment the pedal is released, so closing it again after use takes a manual push in some buyers' experience rather than an automatic drop.
