The product is basically good to handle, lid closes quietly and there are no odors. Of course, both walk funny around the kitchen because well-adhering feet are missing and there is also a certain skill required for changing the trash bags. Okay and as described by the product manufacturer.
To complain that the manufacturer will ship products that have optically clear manufacturing defects! When black trash an edge / dent in the cover, which was no transport damage clearly and the Red has tiny little spots on the cover was (similarly, as if someone had mopped and it was dried).
From a product in elevated price segment, I expect at least a flawless execution and not the lack or poor control is expected the customer. Although the exchange is always possible without problems, you have to make things but still pack up and send to the journey and the same for both products!
Conclusion: The product does what it says, and if you do not shy away from the risk of returning, or comes to terms with small optical defects ..... then go!
