## Description

simplehuman's 18L butterfly step can has an innovative butterfly lid design that opens from the center for maximum clearance under low countertops. It also has a taller, narrower shape than our 20L butterfly step can that makes the most of really tight spaces. The strong steel pedal and patented lid shox technology ensure the can will function smoothly and quietly for years. simplehuman's code L liner fits this can perfectly — no bunching or slipping for a cleaner trash experience.

- STRONG STEEL PEDALS - simplehuman's strong steel pedal is engineered to last over 150,000 steps — that's more than 20 steps a day for 20 years.
- SILENT CLOSE LID - simplehuman's patented lid shox technology controls the motion of the lid for a slow, silent close.
- BUTTERFLY LID - Split doors open from the center for maximum clearance under low countertops.
- INTERNAL HINGES - Allows you to place this can right up against the wall.
- NON-SKID BASE - Non-skid base has rubber pads that are gentle on floors and keep the can steady.
- FINGERPRINT-PROOF - Fingerprint-proof finish resists smudges to keep stainless steel shiny.
- REMOVABLE INNER BUCKET - Durable inner bucket catches messy drips and lifts out for easy cleaning.
- CUSTOM FIT LINERS - simplehuman's code L liners are designed to fit this can perfectly so they don't slip, and they stay completely hidden. Extra-thick plastic and double-seam construction prevent rips and tears.
