Product Information
Full details
The simplehuman 1.5L Mini Countertop Trash Can is designed for those looking to maintain a clutter-free vanity, kitchen counter, or laundry space. Its primary benefit is providing an accessible, compact disposal point for small waste items like cotton balls, coffee pods, and lint. A key caveat to note is that its 1.5-liter capacity is strictly limited to very small items and is not suitable for bulk household waste.

FAQs
Can I use standard trash bags in this bin?
This bin is designed for small, loose waste. Standard trash bags are too large, so it is best used as a liner-free bin for easy emptying.
Is the bin dishwasher safe?
No, it is not dishwasher safe. Hand-washing with mild soap and water is recommended to preserve the finish.
Does it come in different colors?
Yes, this model is available in White and Grey.
What are the exact dimensions?
The bin is 188 mm tall with a diameter of 127 mm (12.7 cm).
Can I use this in a wet environment like the shower?
While the materials are moisture-resistant, it is intended for dry waste on countertops and is not meant to be submerged or kept inside a shower enclosure.
Troubleshooting
The swing lid feels stuck or moves slowly.
Check for debris buildup around the pivot points of the lid. Wipe the hinge area with a damp cloth to clear away dust or sticky residue.
The lid does not sit perfectly flat.
Ensure the trash level is not overfilled, as items protruding above the rim will prevent the lid from swinging back into place properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required; the bin arrives ready to use out of the box. Simply place the unit on a flat, stable surface. To maintain the finish, wipe the steel exterior with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild non-abrasive cleaner. For the inner plastic lining, remove the lid and rinse with warm water and soap as needed. Ensure the interior is completely dry before replacing the lid. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scouring pads, as these can scratch the plastic surface or damage the exterior finish.
