Curver Metal Effect Pedal Deco Bin 50L

This is a great bin - it's lightweight and looks good. The main body of the bin looks like it's metal but is coated plastic (easy to clean) and the operation is simple - just a pedal to lift the lid or you can just use your hand. There are two brackets that secure the bag too which is so useful - the bag is held securely at the rim of the bin making removal easier and it stops the top of bag being pushed down into the bin. So simple but very effective.50 litres is essential for my family of 4 and 3 dogs, but the design is slim and it sits nicely without making any major statements.I love the simple design and ease of cleaning - no more funky options for me - just a bin that you can fill and empty easily! Great value too.

After getting bin I realised it wasn’t stainless steel (due to me not paying attention) thought it would make it cheap/tacky looking or flimsy BUT was pleasantly surprised, I’d say this material is better, it looks like a matte finish rather than shiny like stainless steel and I think that looks better, it’s also harder to get dirty but when it does its really easy to clean. Will be buying this type of material over stainless steel in future. A decent size too, my other bin was 50ltr but if you packed it, it was difficult to remove the bag, this one is a lot easier to take out rubbish, only tip is to make sure the 2 side handles inside are kept down when removing the bag, if not they close over the bag as you pull it out like a clamp.

Just the ticket. We've previously had sensor bins that open when you wave a hand over them. They are great but they simply do not last (probably unless you're willing to spend megabucks). This is simpler and achieves the same thing: a bin you don't have to touch with your hands. It looks and works great for the price. One star off for the "novel" bag-holding mechanism: it does the job of holding the bag - and it's very easy to fit the bag - but unfortunately it works against you when taking out the trash! When it comes time to tie off a full bag and pull it out of this bin, those clever handles that hold the bag so beautifully the rest of the time now just get in the way. Every time you lift the rubbish out, they come up with it and grip the sides of whatever is inside. So the simple act of lifting it all out becomes a real pain in the butt. There's no way around this because those handles are not easily detachable, so it's a design flaw on an otherwise-great product.

It's a good size, love the soft close lid and pedal is good size for my big feet to use 😂. For the price it's good value, looks good in my new kitchen and the bucket size means I'm not emptying it every hour. Perfect for me, pleased with my purchase.

I cannot fault this bin, it's a great size but looks really neat. The red metallic finish is so easy to wipe clean, the bin stays looking as good as new. The foot pedal efficiently and quietly opens and closes the perfectly fitted lid, which keeps smells inside; clever 'side handles' hold the bin liner securely in place without any overhang as it is tucked in; and it's easy to remove the full bag ~ with just a little 'side to side' wiggle if it's overstuffed! I would have expected to pay much more for this quality item and will now stop looking for a 'real metal' bin ~ I don't need one!

Finally a cat proof bin to stop the little f*****s climbing in and repeatedly emptying it all over the kitchen floor...They still manage to get the bin over, but yet to succeed in ruining my mornings, so so far we are finally winning and I’m getting my mornings back!It would have been far easier to tie the cats up every night, however the misses was strongly against this... atleast for now!Let’s hope this works... For their sakes eh!!!****** UPDATE ******So far so good, very good quality in, what’s great is you can fit 3x red bricks in the bottom, which fit absolutely perfectly by the way, for you OCD guys outs there!And this not only solves that little terror up there in knocking it over, but also plays a great part in getting the bin bag out, without dragging the bin all the way through the house with it!!Overall; Way too pleased about this bin! So it must be good, now it’s time to go back to shooting zombies... Before I end up reviewing toasters and ironing boards!! 🙄 🤙

Really love this bin, I've seen other reviews saying the bin pedal has broken, this hasn't happened with me but I also haven't had it for so long. It's really easy to clean and doesn't rust which is a huge bonus. It looks exactly like stainless steel and looks really sleek in my kitchen. The rubbish bag holders are also really handy as I hate it when the bin bag falls into the bin. I can also put a good amount of rubbish in before its full. Compared to other bins of similar style/size, this price is much better and works just as well. Overall, really like it!

Like the colour, size and shape of this bin which fits a space in my kitchen perfectly.Like that all surfaces are fairly, easily cleaned and look good.Dislike the design of the bag retaining “arms/levers” these do not work well! It is fiddly and awkward to secure a bin liner and equally difficult to release and extract a full binbag without snagging or tearing the bag on those retaining arms.Dislike that the design also makes it less easy to clean - or perhaps that’s just my OCD!
