He also likes how sleek they look and that they keep odors out! We never owned a diaper pail for this reason. </p> <p>After our move this year, he wanted the sensor one... I was so against it because of all the bad reviews, but he won the argument and I guess I'm used to it now. It's a little wonky (sometimes opens when ur just walking by)... annoying. And of course recently they came out with a better idea... You bump your hip against it to open it. Wish we got that one instead! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-535740 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 00:34:07 +0000 wheres_c 535740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one but it broke! The lid stays up and you have to put it down manually. Lame. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-534642 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 15:30:42 +0000 mole 534642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We registered for one for our nursery and got it last week! I was so pumped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-534394 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 14:14:47 +0000 banana 534394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG how cool! What's so great about these vs other regular trashcans? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-534367 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 14:09:34 +0000 sylvie_b 534367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got ours on sale and think it's waaaay better than our previous trash cans. Totally worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-534252 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:41:19 +0000 Smurfette 534252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love ours.

It's not fingerprint proof, but I don't mind. I wish I could afford the nicer ones, but I'll take my cheap find for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533992 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:27:12 +0000 autumnlove 533992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsInformation: I buy the special liners after a few attempts at being frugal with regular bags! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533990 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:26:18 +0000 Pepper 533990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a large one in our kitchen and a little baby one that we use in the bathroom. We got an awesome deal at Home Depot for them... I believe both were under $70! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533988 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:25:41 +0000 T.H.O.U. 533988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonLong: What a great steal BTW, maybe I need to keep an eye out for one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533983 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:25:19 +0000 MsInformation 533983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a fan too! I recently bought two small ones and used 20% off coupons at Bed Bath and Beyond to soften the blow. Do you guys buy the special liners too? I just use plastic bags from the drugstore/grocery store; they don't fit or stay up nearly as well as the Simple Human ones, but I"m not quite ready to start spending a small fortune on specially made bin liners yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533927 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:09:35 +0000 Mrs. Chalk 533927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was actually the one who scoffed at the idea of a $100+ trash can for the kitchen, but my husband really wanted one. I love it. Love it. Is that weird? It's actually really satisfying to use - the top closes so nicely, and it has that little lip that you can angle the inner bin on to change the bag. Yes, cheaper ones do the same job, but I admit that this is just a really well-designed garbage can. (Ok, yes, it's weird that I am so excited about this.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533907 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:04:36 +0000 T.H.O.U. 533907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonLong: My husband was furious that I spent our wedding gift cards on a $100 trash can. Now where ever we go he points them out. I think he would buy one for the baby's nursery if we had the $. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533906 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:04:27 +0000 bunnylove08 533906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the 40 litre slim step can and I LOVE it. Its plastic so it was not too expensive. Its thin and fits in little spaces but tall. My trash bags never fall into the can and I can actually fit a lot of garbage in it. I used a 20% off coupon from bed bath and beyond when I bought it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533866 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 11:53:21 +0000 Meridian 533866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a big rectangular one in the kitchen and 2 small ones in each bathroom, all of which we got on sale (still pricey). Honestly, I'm not sure what all the fuss is about! I see nice, much more affordable ones at places like Homegoods and Marshalls and am sure those would work just as well!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533768 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 11:17:55 +0000 Alivoo01 533768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonLong: That's freaking awesome!!!! </p> <p>I've been wanting one, but haven't bitten the bullet to purchase it yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533670 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 10:46:16 +0000 autumnlove 533670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: I have a half one too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533607 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 10:29:21 +0000 T-Mom 533607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to have one and loved it, but felt that it didn't hold enough so we got rid of it when we moved. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533595 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 10:25:42 +0000 sorrycharlie 533595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the black half-circle one!

I guess our families felt that a $159 garbage can was ridiculous (which it is). A few months later, I scored a brand new one (same model as what we registered for!) at a garage sale for $8. They were asking $10 but I don’t pay sticker. If that’s not a score, I don’t know what is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533464 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 09:44:06 +0000 prettylizy 533464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't even know this existed.... the last thing I need is to start coveting another expensive thing DH doesn't think we need! lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533462 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 09:43:37 +0000 Modern Daisy 533462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree! We got one for our kitchen and the people who rented our last apartment when we broke our lease asked us if they could have it! I was like heck no, that thing was 60 bucks!!</p> <p>It's now two years old and still looks brand new, I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533455 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 09:41:42 +0000 LemonLong 533455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually got a full size one at Goodwill once for $5. Score! My husband couldn't believe there was such a thing as $100 trash cans, but we did end up buying another one later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/simple-human-trash-cans#post-533438 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 09:36:39 +0000 autumnlove 533438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like them even though they are so expensive! I wish I could have one in each room! </p>
