SONGMICS Trash Can 8 Gallon (30 L) Stainless Steel Step-On Pedal, Soft-Close Lid

SONGMICS 8-gallon stainless steel trash can is a slim, step-on kitchen bin with a soft-close, odor-sealing lid and a removable inner bucket for easy bag changes.

This compact 30 L can is designed to give you enough capacity for household waste while taking up minimal floor space. Its brushed stainless-steel body resists rust and hides fingerprints, while a gentle, slow-closing lid helps keep smells contained and prevents noisy slams. A handy step pedal and an inner bucket with a bag-holding slot combine to make daily use more convenient.

How much trash does this bin hold and where does it fit best?

The SONGMICS trash can holds about 8 gallons (30 liters), suitable for kitchens, home offices, bedrooms, or small apartment spaces. Its slim footprint (13.8” L x 10” W x 25” H) lets it slide into tight corners or sit beside cabinets without blocking foot traffic.

• Capacity: 8 gallons / 30 liters for typical household waste
• Dimensions: 13.8” L x 10” W x 25” H — fits narrow spaces
• Use cases: kitchen, bathroom, office, laundry room
• Fits standard kitchen trash bags or small liners

What mechanisms make opening, closing, and bag changes easy?

The can opens two ways: press the pedal for hands-free access or lift the lid and catch it in the open position for temporary use. The soft-close mechanism damps the lid when it drops, so it closes quietly without slamming, and the removable inner bucket simplifies bag removal and cleaning.

• Step-on pedal enables hygienic, hands-free operation
• Soft-close lid prevents loud slams and prolongs durability
• Removable inner bucket with back hole secures bag edges
• Back handle on inner bucket for easy transport and emptying

How does the design control odors and stay clean?

The snug-fitting lid forms a tighter seal to limit lingering smells while the slow-close mechanism reduces odor release from abrupt openings. Brushed stainless-steel resists rust and minimizes smudges; a quick wipe with a damp cloth restores the finish.

• Tight lid seal reduces airborne odors between emptyings
• Soft-close reduces forceful openings that expel smells
• Stainless-steel body is rust-resistant and easy to wipe clean
• Inner bucket can be rinsed separately to remove residue

Is this trash can durable and low-maintenance?

Constructed with stainless steel, the can resists corrosion and everyday wear. The simple mechanical pedal and hinge are built for regular household use; periodic cleaning of the inner bucket and exterior keeps the unit functioning and looking new.

• Stainless-steel construction for long-term rust resistance
• Soft-close hinge reduces stress from repeated use
• Removable inner bucket prevents leaks and simplifies cleaning
• Wipe-clean surface keeps maintenance quick and easy
