I was looking for something I could put in the kitchen, as I didn't like the style of having a rubbish bin outside the kitchen door. I had decided to buy two of these bins, as I accumulate enough rubbish for two 40-liter bags at weekends and on holidays. It's pure white, so it doesn't stand out in the house, the design isn't too thin (so you can't make full use of the bag capacity), and it can be opened with a single push of the handle. I can't ask for anything more. The bins themselves don't have casters, but in our house we use two of them with the “closet storage casters” and a file case for storing the garbage bags. Even if you can't use the foot pedal, it's okay because it's a 2-way system. It's also easy to move around when you're vacuuming, so it's comfortable.
