Product Reviews

Best Trash Can We Have Used
By far the best trash can for those not provided with one by a private pick-up service. Ours has survived (so far!) 5 years of summer heat, below-freezing winter cold, and rough handling by city crews. Very light-weight with 2 strong handles which lock the lid on tight. Dogs in the neighborhood can tip it over, but cannot get inside to the bags. The wheels make it easy to move to the curb when weighted down with heavy contents. Holds 32-gallon trash bags perfectly. No cracks, leaks, or color fading after 5 years. Does not hold odors. We'll be buying a couple more of these as spares!

Wish the handles were as strong as the garbage man
I've owned at least 6 of these over the past 10 years, and in general they're okay when the wheel axles don't lose their cap nut and totally disengage.

However, the last one I bought at Home Despot lost both handles within a couple of weeks. Reason? The pivot rod PULLED RIGHT THROUGH THE HOUSING!!!!

The garbage man always grabs the handle, swings the can up in the air and the can lands on the edge of the truck hopper. If the load in the can is heavy, something gives..............I'm buying Brutes next time!

Okay
It works just fine for what it was made for. I was hoping to use it for taking my trash to the collection place we have here. It is a bit of a distance. I have used it for that purpose, but it is quite cumbersome for that. I think I will look for something else.
