FAQs
Are the inner buckets dishwasher safe?
While the buckets are made of high-quality plastic, hand-washing with mild soap and water is recommended to preserve their lifespan and shape.
Can I use standard bin liners?
Yes, standard bin liners can be used, though Brabantia offers custom-fit liners that ensure a tidy, hidden look.
Is the exterior finish scratch-resistant?
The finish is durable, but to maintain the 'Passion Red' aesthetic, it is best to avoid using abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
What are the exact dimensions?
The unit is 540 mm wide, 312 mm deep, and 680 mm high.
Does the bin come with a warranty?
Brabantia products generally include a manufacturer warranty; please check your specific purchase receipt and local documentation for duration details.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not open smoothly
Check the hinge mechanism for any debris or obstructions and ensure the bin is not pushed too tightly against a wall surface.
Bin wobbles on the floor
Adjust the individual screw-in non-skid legs until all four touch the ground firmly and the bin is level.
Odors lingering in the bin
Remove the plastic inner buckets and wash them thoroughly with antibacterial soap, ensuring they are completely dry before returning them to the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply insert the two provided inner buckets into the base unit and ensure the bin is positioned on a flat surface. Use the adjustable legs to level the unit if your kitchen floor is uneven to prevent wobbling. For long-term care, the exterior red finish should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent to maintain its appearance. The inner plastic buckets can be removed and washed in a sink with warm soapy water to prevent odors. Avoid using abrasive sponges on the outer casing to keep the finish looking new.
