A while back, i noticed a test post that accidently got posted on the simplehuman blog. As a reward for my efforts, they offered me a can. I couldn’t refuse (no pun intended).
After browsing their product catalog, i decided on their flag-ship model: simplehuman butterfly step can. Not because i wanted the most expensive product they make, but because it was what would be ideal for our kitchen setup.
It is a really nice product. Well constructed, looks sharp, and works well. The practical side of me would have a difficult time justifying that price for a trash can; however, you do get what you pay for. Any kitchen sized stainless steel step can is ninety bucks or more (and most of those have plastic lids). Add a silent closing mechanism and your at $120. Add useful styling and your over $200. The butterfly step can hits right in that price range. If your going stainless, it outta be a simplehuman. Their other stainless models are stylish and price competitive as well.
The can it replaced was a $10 Sterilite white plastic can from Roses. :-) Our initial trash can shopping criteria was (1) cheap and (2) would keep the cats out.
