Is the lid soft-closing?
Yes, the lid is designed to close smoothly and silently, minimizing noise.
Can the lid be kept open while I cook?
Yes, the lid can be manually lifted and held open at a 90° angle, which is convenient for prolonged tasks like food preparation.
How easy is it to clean the inner buckets?
The inner buckets are removable and feature handles, making them easy to take out, clean with soap and water, and reinsert.
What material is the bin made of?
The bin is constructed from premium steel, offering durability and a modern aesthetic.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, this SONGMICS kitchen bin is available in other colors such as Black and Metallic Silver, among others.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close quietly
Ensure the inner buckets are correctly seated and not obstructing the lid. Check if the lid is overloaded or if the hinge needs lubrication.
Pedal feels stiff or unresponsive
Check for any obstructions around the pedal mechanism. Ensure the inner buckets are not preventing the mechanism from operating fully. Clean the pedal area.
Bin liner is difficult to secure
Ensure you are using the correct size bin liner. Adjust the liner and utilize the 'liner stays' at the back to hold it taut and out of sight.
Exterior shows streaks or smudges
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. For best results, dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent water spots and smudges.

Care:
