FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the waste bin?
The bin measures approximately 28cms from the top, has a height of 25cms, and a diameter of 18cms from the base.
Is this bin suitable for a bathroom?
Yes, it is suitable for a bathroom. It has been humidity tested and designed to resist mold and mildew, making it a good choice for such environments. Using a liner is recommended.
How should I clean the waste bin?
Wipe the bin with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure it dries completely in a well-ventilated area if it gets wet.
Can this waste bin be used outdoors?
While made from natural materials, it is best suited for indoor use to preserve its appearance and longevity. Prolonged exposure to elements can degrade the seagrass.
Does the bin come with a liner?
The product description does not specify if a liner is included. However, it is compatible with standard bin liners.
Is the color natural or dyed?
The seagrass is naturally dyed by hand.
What is the construction of the bin?
It features natural seagrass weaving on a sturdy metal frame.
Troubleshooting
Bin has a slight odor upon arrival.
This is normal for natural materials. Air out the bin in a well-ventilated area for a few days.
Seagrass fibers appear slightly uneven.
This is a characteristic of natural, handwoven materials. Minor variations in texture and color are normal and add to the unique charm of the product.
Bin feels flimsy.
Ensure the bin is placed on a stable surface. The wire frame provides sturdiness, but the natural material is inherently lighter than plastic or metal.
Mold or mildew develops.
This can occur in excessively damp environments. Ensure the bin is dry and in a well-ventilated area. Clean affected spots with a mild soap and water solution and dry thoroughly. Consider using a liner.

Care:
