SONGMICS Kitchen Bin, 2 x 24 L Double Pedal Bin, Steel

Great quality, looks nice, more capacity than seems for the measurements, I’ve had it in place for 5 days now and haven’t needed to empty either side, which is unheard of in our house but I think it’s because recycling is actually now being separated out by the whole family rather than the odd box being left by the back door. Have recommended to my parents already as a purchase they need. No assembly required so very easy and looks and feels sturdy.. The little sticky labels are a nice touch and look good enough that I’ve put them on the top of the lids (the lids would never pay attention to what’s on the underside!) and I don’t think it takes away from the appearance.

What a little gem and fits so much in. I can’t believe it has made such a difference to my kitchen. Everything in one place with more than enough room. Seems very good quality and doesn’t seem to show the fingerprints. The first one I got had to be returned because it was damaged in transit. I received a refund super quick with return postage paid. I just love it and wish I’d taken the leap earlier.

I was tired of having two separate bins in the kitchen, so I bought this one, and it’s been great! The stainless steel looks nice (albeit it gets fingerprints quickly) and feels solid. The pedals work perfectly, and I love the soft-close lids; no more banging lids. Each side has a 30L capacity, which is sufficient for me. The inner buckets are easy to lift off and clean. There are only two downsides: one is that the bin is higher than expected, so above it must have enough space, and two, the plastic buckets could have been a bit sturdier. After a few weeks, I’m still happy with it. This makes it look neater than having two separate bins just sitting around, while also cutting down on hassle. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something stylish yet functional!

Not cheap but good quality product, well finished, looks good and provides a practical solution for recycling

This review is about the 58.6 x 32 x 65 Songmics bin (Amazon will stupidly list it against every Songmics bin.) There's another review saying that the lid doesn't close when there's a liner in. That's not true of this bin. We can't tell which bin that reviewer was talking about. Watch out for bins with pedals that fail cos the lid is too heavy for the mechanism (usually a thin piece of stiff wire being pushed til it buckles) or because the lid forms an airtight seal so the pedal is fighting vacuum pressure. This bin doesn't have either problem. The bags are a weird size but you can buy the ROHI 60cm X 78cm on Amazon at £3.49 for 60 bags. The official bags are 50x75. There's nothing to distinguish the two sides but I just stuck little coloured stickers on. The width (56.8) is perfect cos it's like a standard kitchen unit, but the depth (32) could afford to lose about 8cm so it wouldn't stick out as much. The capacity would still be huge and you'd still be able to sweep a plate or chopping board into it. It looks good and it feels sturdy. It ain't cheap, but I think the price is fair and we'll be using it for decades, or at least until some fool tries to open it with a heavy object on top. If they wanted to reduce the price they could dispense with the gimmicky slow-close function. A slow-open function would actually be more useful cos the lid slaps loudly against the wall behind. Perhaps that's good though cos it'll teach us to press the pedal gently.

I wanted something for waste and recycling, I'd been looking around and come across this one by Songmics and I simply love it. It came in 4 colours black, grey, silver and white, which is the one I purchased. It fits in perfectly, right up against the kitchen end panel, no gaps behind from ugly lid hinges. There are carrying handles on the sides to make it easy to move around if necessary. There are 2 independent pedals for the waste and recycling bins, so you only need to press the pedal for the one you require. The lids flip up quickly and close softly. Each bin has a carrying handle, which makes it so easy to remove. Each bin has a 24l capacity, which is perfect for me, I'm not emptying them every 5 minutes. The bin itself is metal and the lids and internal bins are plastic. It is very well made and I'm over the moon with it. The price is amazing too considering the cost of some of the other brands out there. I would definitely recommend this item, it's a necessity for the home, especially for those of us who like to do our bit for the planet and recycle.

Arrived very well packed with hard protective corners and polystyrene top, bottom and on all sides. The bin has been in action for a few weeks now, everything is as it was - lids are still the same as regards opening and slow closure and the pedals are as per day one. The plastic bins are relatively easy to remove with a little indent on each side to put your hands, but they can be a little tricky and need a bit of a wiggle to get them back into place but nothing major. The included sample bag of liners fit well and are quite strong - going on reviews for follow-up bags, this might not necessarily be the case. The bin liners are quite expensive with a 300% price increase over some other liners, which do fit if you find the right 50l ones where you live. I'm personally using one side for rubbish and the other side for recycling which allows the plastic bin to be taken outside to the recycle bags and simply sorted. The stickers that come with the dual bin should be white and not black if you're going to stick them on the lid, black on black really doesn't work. There's nothing really I can fault about the bin so far.

This bin is a BIG improvement over our last Songmics one. The package came so well packed, I’ve seen in other reviews that it was dinted on delivery so they must have bolstered up the packaged since those reviews. The colour is accurate on the pictures of the product and I love the subtle green colour. It’s very stylish and feels well constructed. I was looking at getting a simplehuman one but I couldn’t justify the price, this one feels like the same quality as but for a much cheaper price! The compartments are huge! I’ve always had dual compartment bins as it makes recycling so easy. The soft closing feature is great and it also came with a free sample of their bin bags which fit really well. I would recommend measuring properly unlike me as the lids can’t quite open fully under the counter but I’m okay with that as I can still throw rubbish in the opening. Overall I’m very happy with this product.

Parfait

Aussi jolie en vrai que sur les photos. Elle fait très qualitative. Les finitions sont impeccables. La dimensions des bacs 30 litres correspond exactement aux sacs poubelle de 30 litres. C'est top ! Je mets un sac poubelle dans chaque bac (y compris le bac de trie sélectif) pour éviter de nettoyer ce bac à chaque fois. Très pratique, le sac reste bien coincé sur le bac lorsqu'on le vide. Je l'ai choisi pour ses dimensions qui me permettent de la placer sous la table de 70cm. Il me manque des roulettes afin de faciliter son déplacement lorsque je vide les bacs. En ligne, j'ai trouvé 4 roulettes plates multidirectionnelles. Mais je dois couper 4 petites cales en bois pour y fixer ces roulettes qui rentreront alors dans les 4 creux de la poubelle. On dirait que c'est fait pour... Les roulettes seront alors quasi invisibles. Le bac "déchets classique" est un peu grand pour mon utilisation personnelle. Je recherche un petit bac amovible à glisser dans ce bac et pour le composte. Je suis très satisfaite de mon achat !

Ik heb de Songmics LTB38NL afvalemmer nu een paar weken in gebruik en ben er erg tevreden mee. Hij beantwoordt precies aan alles wat ik zocht in een prullenbak voor in de keuken. 👍 Wat bevalt goed • Inhoud & formaat: De afvalemmer heeft een ruime inhoud, ideaal voor gezinnen of huishoudens met meerdere bewoners — je hoeft hem niet continu te legen. Tegelijk is hij niet te groot, zodat hij makkelijk in een hoekje of tegen een kast past zonder te veel ruimte in te nemen. • Gebruiksgemak: De pedaal werkt soepel en stevig. Je hoeft niet hard te trappen; hij gaat open met een lichte druk, wat prettig en hygiënisch is. De deksels sluiten goed en blijft keurig dicht, waardoor geurtjes binnen blijven. Door de twee compartimenten ideaal om bijvoorbeeld statiegeld of PMD te scheiden. • Kwaliteit & materiaal: Het materiaal voelt degelijk aan — stevig kunststof/staal (afhankelijk van de uitvoering), zonder scherpe randen. Hij oogt netjes en functioneel, niets piept of wiebelt. • Design & uiterlijk: Simpel, strak en modern design. De kleuren passen makkelijk bij verschillende keukens. Hij oogt niet goedkoop, maar juist vrij volwassen en verzorgd. • Onderhoud: Makkelijk schoon te maken. De binnenemmer is uitneembaar, waardoor je ook plakkerige zakken of gemorste restjes goed kunt opruimen. Scheelt tijd en moeite.

Súper cómodo el cierre progresivo. Buen producto, con bastante capacidad. Llego rapidísimo.

Quite expensive but elegant
