Needs a 32 gallon trash bag
Bought two of these for under the counter in our kitchen for recycling and trash (also bought trash/recycle stickers to differentiate). Very sturdy and slides easily in and out when pulled on the handle. Love the slanted top- makes it easier to toss in and the high back stops anything from falling out. I researched what type of bag to purchase for these by finding the bag capacity using the dimensions. For the '13 Gallon' size, you must use a 32 gallon trash bag for it to fit comfortably.

The bags is where they get you. 13gal bag will not fit!
I read of the bigger one being hard to find trash can liners/bags to fit so i got the smaller one and even though it is 13gallon 13 gallon bags do not fit and i have yet to find ones that do.

Well-made, great design
Love this trashcan - shape/design. The reviews about needing a bigger bag, though, are true. In the picture is a tall 13 gallon bag. Will just buy the 32 gal bag once I need more bags. That doesn’t lessen the rating, though, it’s a well-made, sturdy trashcan.

These are AWESOME!
We pulled out an unused dishwasher and put in two of these - one black and one blue (for recycling) - into the empty counter slot. We added a small kitchen curtain over opening and Voila! - instant disposal center.The only tricky part was the bag size. These take standard 30 gallon small yard and garden trash bags (not 3-gallon, and not the 13-gallon in the description).Other than that, they work exceptionally well. Their construction is heavy injection-molded plastic, so they'll last longer than I will. They also have built-in bag clippy things (technical term) and hand-holds, making it easy to add/remove bags, and to pick up for emptying.We initially had some concerns about our two large hounds trying to get into them, but my wife discovered that if we turned them around with the high edge facing forward, the dogs couldn't get into them. Genius.HIGHLY recommended.

These are not 13 gallon. Closer to 24...
Not 13 gallon... I'm fairly sure that the same manufacturing method is used between 24 flat top and "13" angle top. with the only real difference being the slight extrusion on the lip

Great For A Storage Bin But Crap As A Trash Can
It's a sturdy bin I don't deny that, but I threw it out after buying the third set of trash bags that wouldn't fit the top of the can like they should have. I tried 25, 33, and even 39 gallon size trash bags for a trash can that is supposed to be only 23 gallons yet none of them would fit the top of it for more than maybe a few seconds. Nevermind being able to fit into the little slots on the sides. Hence why I say good storage bin but crap as a trash can. Though maybe it was meant to be in the business section and someone put it in the residential section by mistake. If so hopefully they correct it before someone else has the frustration I did.

Part Two of a Solution
We have a micro-kitchen but wanted trash and recycle bins in the kitchen. After a year of wrestling regular cans with step lids (which broke), I found these here on Amazon. Perfect solution for us! The angled top means you don't miss when you're throwing garbage or recycles under the counter and they don't need emptying but once a week (usually) because of their size. Very solid, not flimsy like most plastic trash cans, and the Slim Jim profile means you can get two cans in a typical under the counter space. We got two of 'em--one for trash, the other for recycles--and set the in the rolling cart/holder and voila! Problem solved.Honestly, they're way better than other trash cans and I don't know why you don't see theem in more homes. You need to get super big liners, though. Typical can liners for a kitchen can won't work because their circumference isn't large enough. Definitely get a bigger size. I think 33 gallon but check other reviews where the sizes are specified because I followed their advice and nailed it.

Can you LOVE a trash can?
I love the Rubbermaid Slim Jim trash can with venting channels. Although it is sold for commercial use, I bought it for my home. 30 gallon plastic bags with draw string fit it perfectly. I use mine for shredded paper and the vertical venting channels make a full bag easier to lift out. The handles on the top ends with molded finger grips on the bottom, make handling very manageable. I am not in the refuse removal business, but this trash can is the best rubbish discarding container I’ve ever seen. I have the taller big brother version, too, which I’ve repurposed for organizing. Maybe I just got lucky, but I bought the Rubbermaid Slim Jim trash cans with venting channels from the secondary Amazon market and they arrived in perfect condition. Dare I say it? . . . they are estate quality! I hope to pass mine along to the next generation as usable not as landfill, they are just that durable.I have not been compensated in any way for my review.

Easy to keep clean
The product has no lid, which is why I bought it. Swing bin lids and pedal bin lids invariably get dirty and need to be cleaned regularly. This bin is reasonably large and fits under a kitchen table which acts as a lid so you don't have to look at the rubbish. There is an angle on the front which gives space under the table to allow rubbish to be thrown into the bin without touching the table or front of the bin. Works very well with the big black bin liners and keeps everything clean. My only criticism is that its a bit pricey but it will last forever so I'm happy!

Buena calidad
Es del tamaño adecuado para espacios reducidos de mi cocina, es práctico que tenga un desnivel lateral, ya no ensucio tapas de vaivén, ni ocupo pisar pedales cuando estoy apurada preparando alimentos. Cumplió mis expectativas.

Check the dimensions before you order
The bin was absolutely fine but it was hard to find the dimensions and it did not fit under my sink as I had hoped.
