NOT 13 GALONDong13 Galon trash bag never fit. 1
Very disappointed!Kathy13 gallon bags DO NOT FIT. This is so misleading. 4 hours round trip to store so I guess we're stuck with it. It's cheaply made and much too light, needs to be heavier. The ring won't lay flat with bin liner inserted which means the lid won't lay flat when closed. So very disappointed. $40 for trash1
Warning! Can't use standard 13 gallon can liners!GayleThey say this is a 13 gallon trans can BUT the can liners you can buy in every grocery store won't fit in them. Even if you stretch the drawstring as much as you can before it breaks, it still won't fit the can ring. Great concept IKEA but go back to the drawing board on this one! I would love to take it back but we live 3 hours one way from the store.1
not great qualityAntonellaIt was fine for about 7 months then it started squeaking every time the lid opens or closes. It is such a loud, high-pitched squeak that it is unusable, and I have to find a new one3
Trash CanPamelaIt's great. 5
Foot pedal will break in less than a yearEricThis is one of the cheapest foot-pedal full kitchen sized trash cans you can find, unfortunately that means it will break quickly. My main problem is that the nubs on the sides of the pedal on which it pivots break off very quickly. One broke off after having it for 6 months. I super-glued it back on and then it broke off again. You could still kind of use the pedal by only stepping on the other side of the pedal where the nub hadn't broken off, but it quickly broke as well. I noticed multiple other reviews with the same complaint. Unless you want a trash can where you'll have to lift up the lid or leave it open, don't buy this one. In addition, as mentioned in other reviews, it is VERY difficult to get standard 13 gallon bags around the rim of this trash can and they frequently tear when I force them on. Also, Ikea, I want to be able to post pictures with my reviews!2
Broke after 7 monthsAryanThe pedal mechanism is made out of plastic and it broke after just 7 months of using it. 1
misadvertised volume Boriswhat is listed as 13 gallon is actually more like 20. no 13 gallon liners will fit the mouth of this can. the quality is fine so i'll be keeping it for other purposes, but how hard is it to provide an accurate item description?2
Relentless stickerAngelaSeems pretty flimsy... And Why do they have to put a sticker right on the front that won't come off! Put it on the back or better yet there are newer products that just peel right off. It's like a 5X6 sticker and stuck for life! I've tried all the hacks and scraped it tools leaving scratch marks 🙄 this won't let me even post pics of the progress. 2
MehVeronicaThe sticker is impossible to get off. I had to use goo gone which was time consuming and messy aka annoying. Standard garbage bags don't fit (the larger size). IKEA are there special bags for this product?3
The glue from the label doesn’t come offAlisaThat’s really very unpleasant when for 20 minutes you are trying to get that label off and still you don’t have successes.
IKEA representatives how do you get that glue off.
It doesn’t come off with rubbing, hot water or any kind of soap!!
I have pictures and I’d like to upload how terrible it looks, but I don’t see the option to upload ((1
Solid trash can TristaThis was my second purchase of this trash can because I like it so much. It’s a great size and I love the dividers for trash vs recycling.5
It does the job.Verified BuyerI know offering more than one color of an item drives the price up, but gray? Still, I needed a pedal bin at a good price and this is that. The Livat store doesn’t carry the tall silver bin and it really should. I bet you’d sell a lot of them in SF.
The sticker was hard to remove; maybe put on the inside lid . . . 4
AWFUL AWFUL AWFULAdamWhat a terribly designed garbage can.
How did this make it to production?
The inner bag holder thing is useless. It’s impossible to wrap the bag around it. Theres no way to wrap it around the backside of the ring. Useless.
The step function makes a loud rubbing noise so its loud.
The plastic is cheap and shows manufacturing marks all over.
ITS NOT HEAVY ENOUGH.
When you step on it, it immediately shakes.
Immediate return.
It looks nice from a distance but im convinced Ikea doesnt test or make anything good anymore.1
Good trash binEvaHolds plenty of garbage. Bags needed I think are the 13 gallon ones. It’s a bit tricky to figure out at first but pull the top of the plastic bag stretching it over the rectangular ring under the lid to secure the bag. It’s just a friction fit but hold the bag so it doesn’t slide into the bin. Foot pedal works well, just make sure the inner silver hook (on the hinge side of the lid mechanism) is attached to the lid.5
Lid doesn't close tightly.Jae-WonI wanted to use this for cat urine pads and used litter in the back entry way, but I realized that the lid won't close fully with trash bag inserted. For non-smelly trashes, this would be fine. But for my needs, no.3
Poorly designed and oddly shapedEmilyThe super wide mouth makes it nearly impossible to fit standard kitchen trash bags in. Wish I had known that before I bought this and a box of 100 bags3
KnocklaKaylahVery cute little trashcan, keeps smells and trash in5
