FAQs
How do I assemble the bin?
Assembly is minimal. Simply unpack the bin, place the inner plastic buckets into their respective compartments, and the bin is ready to use.
What is the capacity of each compartment?
Each of the three compartments has a capacity of 18 liters.
Is the stainless steel truly fingerprint-proof?
The surface is designed to be fingerprint-proof and resistant to smudges, but regular wiping with a soft cloth is recommended to maintain its pristine appearance.
Can I use standard bin liners?
Yes, the bin is compatible with standard 18L bin liners that fit snugly within the inner plastic buckets.
How do I clean the inner plastic buckets?
You can easily remove the inner plastic buckets and wash them with soap and water. Ensure they are dry before reinserting them.
What are the dimensions of the bin?
Please refer to the product's detailed specifications sheet for exact dimensions, as these can vary slightly.
Is the bin suitable for outdoor use?
This bin is designed for indoor kitchen use. Its materials are rust-resistant, but prolonged exposure to outdoor elements is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close softly.
Ensure the inner bucket is correctly seated and not obstructing the lid's path. Check for any debris around the hinge mechanism.
Pedal is stiff or unresponsive.
Check that the pedal mechanism is not obstructed. Gently try to move the pedal back and forth. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Exterior is difficult to keep clean.
Wipe down regularly with a damp microfiber cloth. For persistent marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with a clean damp cloth, then dry completely.
Inner bucket handle is loose.
Check if the handle is properly secured to the inner bucket. If it appears damaged, contact customer support for a replacement.
