mDesign Mirri Round Metal Trash Can 1.7 Gal – Polished Stainless Steel, 2-Pack for Small Spaces

mDesign's Mirri round metal 1.7-gallon wastebasket is a compact, polished stainless-steel trash can sold as a two-pack designed for small spaces like bathrooms, offices, and dorm rooms.

This pair of small, round trash cans blends a clean, modern look with practical proportions — each holds 1.7 gallons (6.4 liters) and measures 8 inches in diameter by 9.7 inches high. The polished stainless-steel finish resists everyday wear and wipes clean quickly, while the open-top design makes it easy to discard small trash or line with a bag for quick disposal. Because the cans are compact and lightweight, they tuck neatly into tight spots such as under sinks, next to vanities, or beside desks without overwhelming the room.

How will this trash can fit into cramped spaces?

The Mirri small round can was designed specifically for tight nooks where a full-size bin would be awkward. Its narrow 8-inch diameter and 9.7-inch height allow it to live under counters, beside toilets, or beside small furniture while still offering a usable 1.7-gallon capacity.

• Dimensions: 8" diameter x 9.7" high for narrow gaps
• 1.7 gallons (6.4 L) capacity for bathroom and desktop waste
• Set of 2 gives coordinated placement across rooms
• Open-top design for quick, no-lid disposal

Is the stainless-steel finish durable and easy to maintain?

The polished stainless-steel surface is built for regular home use and resists corrosion from typical household waste. Routine care is simple: a damp cloth removes fingerprints and smudges, and the low-maintenance finish keeps the cans looking polished without special cleaners.

• Made from strong stainless steel for lasting durability
• Polished finish hides wear and reflects decor
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth — no harsh chemicals needed
• Lightweight construction makes emptying fast and simple

Can these cans be used beyond holding trash?

Yes — these versatile containers work well for recycling small items, corralling craft scraps, or even acting as decorative planters when lined to prevent moisture. Because they lack drainage holes, line them with waterproof material for plants or wet contents to protect the metal interior.

• Use for trash, recycling, or household storage
• Works as a small planter if lined with waterproof material
• Suitable for bedrooms, home offices, dorms, RVs and apartments
• Set of two allows matching storage across multiple spots

How do I choose the right bag or liner for this can?

Because of the compact size, opt for small or mini trash bags that fit snugly to avoid bunching. You can also repurpose produce or sandwich bags for light bathroom waste; for heavier use choose 1-2 gallon drawstring or saddle-seal liners that fit the 8" diameter opening.

• Recommended capacity: 1.7 gallons / 6.4 liters
• Use 1–2 gallon small liners or mini drawstring bags
• Tuck excess liner into the rim for a neat appearance
• Consider a plastic liner when using as a planter to protect the metal

Who is this for: The mDesign Mirri polished stainless-steel 1.7-gallon two-pack is ideal for anyone needing tidy, attractive waste receptacles in limited spaces — homeowners furnishing small bathrooms, renters outfitting dorms or apartments, office workers adding discreet desk-side bins, and travelers equipping RVs or campers. If you want durable, low-maintenance containers with a modern aesthetic and compact footprint, this pair offers a practical, coordinated solution.
