Product Information
Full details
The SONGMICS 20 L Compact Kitchen Trash Bin in Black is designed for individuals or small households (1-2 people) seeking a space-saving and aesthetically pleasing waste solution. Its primary benefit is its compact size and quiet, soft-closing lid, making it ideal for smaller kitchens. A minor consideration is its 20L capacity, which may require more frequent emptying in larger households. This bin features a sturdy steel construction, a quiet-close lid, a pedal for hands-free operation, and an easily removable inner bucket.

FAQs
What is the capacity of this kitchen bin?
This kitchen bin has a capacity of 20 liters.
Is the lid self-closing?
Yes, the lid features a soft-close mechanism that allows it to close gently and silently.
Can the lid stay open?
Yes, the lid can be lifted to a 90° angle and will stay open for convenient disposal.
How do I clean the inner bucket?
The inner bucket can be easily removed using its handles. Wash it with warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry completely before reinserting.
What type of rubbish bags should I use?
The bin is designed for standard 20-liter kitchen bin liners. It comes with sample bags (code: KRB30A) for immediate use.
Is this bin suitable for outdoor use?
This bin is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to weather conditions can damage the steel and mechanism.
Does the black color scratch easily?
The steel construction is durable, but like any metal finish, it can be scratched by abrasive materials. Use soft cloths for cleaning and avoid harsh scrubbing.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close softly.
Ensure the inner bucket is correctly seated and not obstructing the lid's path. Check for any objects inside the bin preventing the lid from closing smoothly. Clean the hinge mechanism if it appears stiff.
Pedal is difficult to press or does not open the lid.
Check if the inner bucket is interfering with the pedal mechanism. Remove the inner bucket and test the pedal. Ensure there are no obstructions around the pedal base. Clean the pedal linkage if necessary.
Bin is unstable or wobbles.
Verify that the bin is placed on a flat, even surface. Check that the non-slip pads on the base are clean and properly attached. Ensure the bin is not overloaded.
Exterior surface is scratched or damaged.
Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. For minor scratches, a metal polish designed for stainless steel might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Deeper scratches are permanent.
