simplehuman Slim Step Can 5L White — compact bathroom trash can with Lid Shox® silent-close & liner pocket

This slim step can brings the performance of a full-size kitchen can into a tight bathroom or vanity area. It pairs a narrow profile that fits flush against the wall with premium engineering: a smooth internal hinge so the lid opens with no rear clearance, patented Lid Shox® to prevent slams, and an all-steel pedal tested for over 150,000 steps. The built-in liner pocket stores a refill of Code B custom fit liners so you can change bags quickly without hunting down a spare.

How does the Slim Step Can save space without sacrificing capacity?

The Slim Step Can is designed to slide into narrow gaps next to toilets, sinks, or vanities while still holding a generous 5 liters (1.3 gallons). Its footprint is small, but internal engineering provides a full-size user experience including a removable inner bucket for easy emptying.

• Slender profile fits tight bathroom nooks and between vanities.
• 5L capacity suitable for daily bathroom waste in small households.
• Removable inner bucket lifts out cleanly for emptying and rinsing.
• White steel finish complements light-tone bathroom decor.

What makes the lid and pedal mechanism durable and quiet?

The can uses simplehuman’s Lid Shox® technology to moderate the lid’s motion for a slow, whisper-quiet close, avoiding disruptive slams in early mornings or late nights. The pedal is built from reinforced steel and has been engineered and tested to withstand over 150,000 steps, providing years of dependable hands-free operation.

• Lid Shox® motion control gives a controlled, silent close every time.
• All-steel pedal construction supports heavy daily use for decades.
• Sleek internal hinge permits installation flush to the wall without compromising lid travel.
• Premium pedal feel for consistent, low-effort opening.

How do the liner pocket and inner bucket improve maintenance?

The integrated liner pocket holds a 30-pack of simplehuman Code B liners inside the can, so fresh bags are always accessible and dispensed one by one. The inner bucket is made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic and lifts straight out for fast disposal and rinsing, minimizing sticky corners or trapped residue.

• Liner Pocket stores and dispenses Code B liners for quick bag changes.
• Code B liners are custom-fit to prevent overhang and slipping.
• Removable inner bucket is recycled plastic and easy to clean.
• Cleaner interior with fewer crevices to harbor grime.

Will this fit my bathroom aesthetics and last over time?

The clean white steel finish blends with light modern bathrooms and bedrooms while resisting everyday wear. Built with premium materials and backed by a 5-year warranty, the can is intended to deliver long-lasting, reliable performance comparable to simplehuman’s larger waste solutions.

• Durable steel exterior resists scratches and tarnish in normal use.
• Neutral white finish coordinates with contemporary décor palettes.
