We use the bucket for about a week in our bathroom because the conventional 5 liter buckets were always too fast. The mechanism works perfectly with this product and the lid does not beat against the wall as in other products. The appearance is also appealing (as far as one would expect from a trash can) and it blends well with us in the rest of the landscape of the bath one. The removal of the inner bucket is not as optimally solved, since the handle is a bit unstable unanchored and 100%, but since we anyway use the bucket in hotel combines every with garbage bags and thus not reach the handle anyway is outweighs the not difficult. We are very satisfied.
