Full details
This 48L SONGMICS kitchen bin in Charcoal Grey is ideal for those with limited kitchen space who need an efficient waste solution.

The product information does not specify if the inner bucket is dishwasher safe. It is recommended to hand wash it with mild soap and water for longevity.

Troubleshooting
Lid does not close softly
Ensure the inner bucket and liner are correctly positioned and not overfilled, which can obstruct the closing mechanism. Check if the lid is fully open before allowing it to close.
Pedal feels stiff or unresponsive
Check for any obstructions around the pedal mechanism. Ensure the inner bucket is properly seated. Occasionally, a small amount of lubricant might be applied to the hinge if needed, but avoid over-application.
Bin liner does not stay in place
Ensure the liner is large enough and pulled taut over the inner bucket. The inner bucket's design should help secure the edges; readjust if necessary.
Exterior shows smudges
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. The fingerprint-resistant coating should allow smudges to be removed easily without harsh chemicals.
