Customer Reviews

Perfect size and low cost. It's a Win-Win!
I moved into a new apartment about 6 months ago and needed some fresh trashcans (since I didn't keep all of them from my previous home). I searched high and low at discount stores, home stores, Amazon, etc. But non had the exact trashcan style and size that I was looking for.

Then I came across these Umbra eco-friendly trashcans. A bit reluctant to order a trash can online (although I do buy just about everything else online) I tried one out.

I am very pleased and have since ordered a couple more. These are a great size for a home-office, bathrooms, closet (to throw dry-cleaning tags into), etc. The bright colors inside the cans are a pleasant surprise when changing the bags out.

These are sturdy, nicely made trash cans and I highly recommend them.

Not Great; But Good Value
I was a little disappointed in this trash can that we purchased to complement our bath set: Croscill Cheshire 4-Piece Bath Set, Bronze. First, it is not rigid and easily changes shape. Second, it's clearly plastic - "Metalla" although spelled like "Metal" is about the furthest thing from it. Third, the photo is a little deceiving as the can is bronze with dark highlights, while our other fixtures and accessories are the opposite (so it's more gold than dark).

However, it does have some redeeming qualities that saved it from 2-stars or fewer. The trash can we wanted was over $40 on Amazon, so for the same price I can get three of these and not feel bad about throwing them out as they are bio-degradable. Also, this one is twice the size so I can use real trash bags and don't have to empty it as often. It could get four stars if they made the material or structure more rigid - it may still not look like metal, but at least it would feel solid.

Great product - especially for the price
I got one of these for our bedroom, and was so pleased with it I just ordered another one. It's the perfect size (not too small). Yes it is plastic, but it has a nice metallic finish to it. The furniture in our room is a deep brown, and this goes great with it. This was a great find.
