simplehuman Dual-Compartment Kitchen Trash Can 58L — Brushed Stainless, 150,000-Step Pedal & LidShox

The simplehuman Step Recycler is a space-saving 58L dual-compartment kitchen waste station that separates trash and recyclables with a durable 150,000-step steel pedal and silent Lid Shox® lid control.

Designed for kitchens that want efficient source separation without sacrificing style, this rectangular recycler fits against cabinets and counters while offering two functional compartments: a liner-rim trash side with no inner bucket to maximize capacity and a handled recycling bucket for quick removal. Built to last and to reduce kitchen noise, the can includes a built-in liner pocket®, a complimentary odorsorb® pod, and a fingerprint-resistant brushed stainless finish.

How does the Step Recycler help me sort waste quickly?

The can lets you place trash and recyclables side-by-side so sorting happens at the moment you discard items. The left/right layout removes confusion and saves time compared with carrying items across the kitchen to a separate bin.

• Dual compartments in a single footprint — no second can to fit into your kitchen.
• Handled inner recycling bucket lifts out for easy curbside transfer.
• Distinct sides reduce cross-contamination of recyclables and trash.

What makes the lid and pedal so durable and quiet?

simplehuman engineered the steel pedal to endure 150,000 steps, giving years of reliable hands-free use. Lid Shox® motion control slows the lid’s descent for a gradual, silent close that prevents slamming and protects the can and floor from impact noise.

• 150,000-step tested steel pedal for long-term performance.
• Lid Shox® tech ensures smooth, silent closing every time.
• Robust internal mechanisms mean fewer repairs or replacements.

How does the liner system work and why does it save space?

Instead of an inner bucket on the trash side, the liner rim grips the bag directly under the stainless rim, freeing up internal volume and making bag changes faster. A hidden liner pocket stores and dispenses Code H liners so you always have a replacement ready.

• Liner rim system increases usable capacity by eliminating the bucket.
• Internal liner pocket holds up to 20 Code H liners for on-demand dispensing.
• Custom-fit Code H liners reduce bunching and slipping on the trash side.

What extras come with the can and how do they improve kitchen life?

The Step Recycler ships with an odorsorb® pod and is compatible with simplehuman accessories like the Compost Caddy and Shredder to create a complete sorting station. Its brushed stainless exterior resists fingerprints so it stays cleaner-looking longer.

• Complimentary odorsorb® pod neutralizes odors for up to 45 days.
• Brushed stainless finish resists fingerprints and water spots.
• Compatible add-ons let you expand into composting or shredding stations.

Who is this for? The simplehuman Step Recycler is aimed at households and small apartments where kitchen space matters but recycling is a priority. It suits busy families, environmentally minded individuals, and anyone wanting a low-noise, long-lasting can with easier bag management and faster recycling routines. If you want a professionally engineered, high-capacity dual bin that stays tidy and quiet while helping you sort at the source, this recycler is designed for you.
