SIMPLI-MAGIC Dual Compartment Step Trash Can 18.5 Gal (40L+30L) - Stainless Steel, Slow-Close Lid & Odor Control

The SIMPLI-MAGIC 18.5 Gallon dual compartment step trash can is a 70‑liter rectangular hands‑free kitchen bin with two color‑coded inner liners for separate waste and recycling, a soft‑close lid, odor filter holder, and a durable stainless‑steel foot pedal.

Designed for kitchens and busy households, this rectangular 40L + 30L (70L total) can keeps waste and recycling organized without taking up extra floor space. Its gun‑metal stainless finish hides everyday smudges, while the removable inner buckets and bag cinch accept standard liners for fast changes. The lid locks open for large tasks, and a slow‑close feature reduces noise when it shuts.

How does the dual compartment design simplify sorting at home?

The can separates refuse into two clearly color‑coded liners—blue for recycling and green for trash—so sorting happens at the point of disposal. This reduces contamination and makes it easier to transfer each stream to curbside containers or communal recycling bins.

• Two rigid inner buckets sized 40L and 30L for common household volumes
• Color-coded liners help prevent mixing of recyclables and garbage
• Bag cinch keeps standard trash bags secured to the bucket rim
• Rectangular footprint fits snugly against counters or in narrow spaces

What features make it hands‑free and low maintenance?

A sturdy stainless‑steel foot pedal operates the lid so you never have to touch the top surface, keeping hands clean while cooking or cleaning. The removable plastic liners unlock for quick emptying, and the finish resists fingerprints and smudges for easy upkeep.

• Durable foot pedal rated for everyday use
• Removable liners lift straight out for fast bag changes
• Finish that hides fingerprints and common marks
• Simple wipe‑down cleaning; bags sold separately

How does the lid system manage noise and convenience?

The lid features a slow‑close mechanism that lowers quietly to eliminate slamming and protecting floors. For larger or longer tasks, an extended open lid lock holds the lid in place so you can load both liners without repeatedly stepping on the pedal.

• Soft‑close dampener ensures a gentle, silent shut
• Open lid lock keeps the lid raised for extended access
• Single lid covers both compartments for a streamlined look
• Engineered hinge and damper for consistent performance

How is odor control handled in the SIMPLI‑MAGIC can?

The bin includes a built‑in filter holder designed to accept standard odor filters, helping reduce common kitchen smells between bag changes. Positioning the filter near the lid channel allows trapped odors to be neutralized before they disperse into the room.

• Integrated filter holder accepts replaceable odor cartridges
• Filter placement near lid improves containment of smells
• Works with routine bag changes to minimize lingering odors
• Non‑chemical design that complements regular cleaning
