Editor's Notes

March 03, 2019:

The volume of garbage you or your family throw away on a daily basis will often dictate your trash bin selection. For those with large families, or perhaps looking for a model to put in a busy office break room, the Simplehuman CW2035, Step N' Sort 16-Gallon, Songmics ULTB60NL, Simplehuman CW2018 all make a smart choice, since they have a large capacity. These are generally good options for people with big dogs too, as their wide stance makes them very tip resistant. If you are tight on space, but can't make do with a very small model, you will probably want to consider the slim Simplehuman Butterfly or the under-cabinet Simplehuman Pull-Out CW1016, since these make the most out of the little bit of room you have to spare. If you can't stand the thought of touching a garbage bin, even with your foot, look at the Nine Stars Touchless DZT-70-11R. It utilizes an infrared sensor that simply requires you to wave your hand in front of it, and the lid will automatically open. Unfortunately, this often means it may open if you simply walk by it. It also means a smart dog might figure out how it works, thereby providing himself with a meal any time he wants. The tiny Simplehuman Slim CW1470 and Safco Products 9927BB are ideal for keeping next to a desk, since they are both very compact.
